Hung Windows

What are Hung Windows?

Hung windows are comprised of two sashes, one situated at the top of the window frame and another at the bottom. The unique feature of this style is that either one or both sashes are able to slide up and down to allow for maximum ventilation.

There are two distinctive styles within this category of window:

• Single-Hung – For this style, only the lower sash of the frame is operable, while the upper remains fixed in place.
• Double-Hung – As the name suggests, both sashes on this window can move up or down as desired.

With both variations, the movable sashes may be tilted inward to allow for quick and easy cleaning, no matter where – or on what floor – they’re located.

Why Choose Hung Windows?

The endless variations of detailing on the respective sashes can create a striking architectural look for those with an eye for curb appeal, but the simple and clean two-panel design means that these windows can blend effortlessly into any style of home.

The ability to select between one or two sliding sashes means that you’ll be able to customize windows that do exactly what you want them to, whether it’s sliding open the bottom sash to allow a refreshing breeze inside or opening the top sash to relieve warm temperatures. With the double-hung style, both sashes may be opened to an equal amount, promoting air circulation.

The versatility of this style cannot be overstated, as the double-sash design allows for easy viewing of scenery and provides an unhampered view of the outdoors. They work well in every room, and the simplicity of their structure means they’re easy to use as well.

Whichever way you choose to use them, hung windows will be a functional, fashionable accent for your home.
