Single-Hung Windows

A single-hung window has a single movable sash that slides up from the bottom, while the top sash stays stationary. When open, the two sashes overlap, requiring no additional space to ventilate.

Ideal Location

This maximizes space around the window, making it a popular choice in bedrooms and by high-traffic areas, such as a patio. Because the top sash does not operate, single-hung windows are also ideal in spaces where the upper sash is out of reach.

Design Style

Offering timeless style, these windows bring in natural light and fresh air. Given that the top sash is fixed, single-hung windows are very energy efficient and easy to operate.
