Efficient Window Types for Homes in Edison and Throughout New Jersey

Many Window Types to Choose

Victory can install all of the window types available for residential applications. These include architectural shapes and also single-hung, double-hung, casement, awning, sliding, bay, bow, picture, hopper, and garden windows.

‍

Single-Hung Windows

Single-hung is a traditional horizontal window type that has one operable sash. This is usually the bottom sash but can be the upper sash as well. Single-hung windows are more affordable than double-hung windows and therefore a good choice where dual sashes aren’t needed.

‍

Double-Hung Windows

Double-hung is the most popular of all window types for residential purposes. These are horizontal windows that have both an upper and lower operable sash that move independently of one another. This setup provides you with more ventilation options and is easier to clean.

‍

Casement & Awning Windows

Awning and casement windows have panes that open outward from the house, and the main difference is that casement windows open horizontally whereas awning windows open vertically. Opening and closing these windows is controlled by a crank, and these windows have 90-degree hinge capabilities.

‍

Sliding Windows

Also called slider and glider windows, sliding windows have panes that are installed on a track and slide open and close. The advantage of sliders is that they provide a picturesque view without sacrificing airflow, and they’re a great choice where leverage is limited, such as behind a kitchen sink.

‍

Bay & Bow Windows

Bow and bay windows comprise three or more individual windows and can be built using various window types, such as single-hung, double-hung, casement, or picture windows. These windows extend from the home for a unique aesthetic and also provide the home with more interior space.

‍

Picture Windows

Picture windows are designed using large panes that do not open or close. Squares and rectangles are common, but they’re made in a wide range of shapes. Picture windows are ideal for framing a breathtaking view, letting in a lot of natural light, and complementing rooms with high ceilings.

‍

Hopper Windows

Hopper windows are a great choice to let natural sunlight into basements, attics, and garages. These windows are built to withstand high winds and very cold temperatures, and they’re designed like awning windows but open downward and inward to make them easier to operate and clean.

‍

Architectural Shapes Windows

Architectural shapes include full circles, half circles, ovals, octagons, hexagons, and so forth. You can also choose custom shapes, and these options make them an excellent choice when dealing with a unique design element of your home or as a dramatic addition to a custom window configuration.

‍

Garden Windows

Garden windows are named such because they’re a great place to position your houseplants for the sunlight they need. These windows are a popular choice in kitchens and laundry rooms and let in a lot of natural sunlight from three or four sides while still being a very energy-efficient option.
