Awning Windows for Denver homes
Awning windows are usually wider than they are tall, and they often sit high on a wall or below a picture window. That makes them useful in bathrooms, basements and kitchens where you want fresh air and privacy. They seal well when closed and let you ventilate without opening the whole wall.
See all window stylesWhich replacement fits your awning window?
Awnings are often paired with a fixed picture window to give a big view and still let air in. If the glass has fogged, an IGU replacement may solve it. If the frame is rotted, the crank hardware has failed or you want to change the layout, a full-frame replacement is the better route. We help you choose.
Full-frame replacement
Replaces the whole window, frame included. Best for rot, drafts, water damage or a change in size or style.
IGU replacement
Replaces only the sealed glass unit. Best for fogged or cracked glass when the frame and sash are in good shape.

Why Denver homeowners call us
Awning Windows questions answered
Can I leave an awning window open when it rains?
Usually yes. The sash opens outward from the bottom, so the glass sheds light rain while air moves through the gap. Heavy wind driven rain can still get in, so close the window in a storm. We can explain how each size and placement will behave.
Where should I use awning windows in my Denver home?
Awning windows work well in bathrooms, basements and kitchens, and above or below fixed picture windows. They give ventilation while keeping privacy, since the opening sits high or low on the wall. We look at each room and suggest where an awning fits best.
Is an awning window the same as a casement window?
No, though both open outward. A casement hinges at the side and swings like a door. An awning hinges at the top and opens from the bottom. Each suits different spots, and we can compare both for your openings during the free measure.
