Your Window, Your Choice

In order to let the sunlight into your life, you need to choose the perfect window for your home.  You have several options, so make sure you choose what best fits your needs!

1. Bay Windows
- If more space is what you need, bay windows are a perfect option.  They protrude away from the exterior of the home and let in an enormous amount of light.

2. Stationary Windows
- These windows are perfect if you need a customized shape.  They do not open, but you are able to have these windows made in nearly any shape or angle.  

3.  Slider Windows
- The most common used windows are the slider windows.  The operate by sliding horizontally over or past the other window.  

4. Transom Windows
- Traditionally, these windows are used above a door or window to let in even more light.  They are usually narrow and can open to let air in, or remain stationary.

5. Picture Window
- If the sunlight is the majority of your window requirements, this is your option.  These windows are large, stationary windows that let the sunlight pour in and give you excellent views of the outdoors.

6. Awning Windows
- These windows allow air in, as well as sunlight, due to the hinges on the top of the window.  These hinges let the window open outwards and let in air from left, right, or the bottom.

7. Casement Windows
- These windows are also an excellent source of letting in air with sunlight.  They are hinged on the side and can be opened to the left or the right by the turn of a crank.

8. Double-hung Windows
- This is similar to the slider windows, except they move vertically and both windows are able to slide.  There is no protrusion from the house with these windows.
