With a fixed upper section and a lower sash that slides up and down, they offer a clean, straightforward design that works beautifully in both historic homes and contemporary spaces. The stationary upper sash adds stability and keeps the elements out, while the operable lower sash lets you welcome fresh air when needed. It’s a design that’s both practical and timeless.

Can I customize my windows?

How do I clean single-hung windows?

Our single-hung windows feature a tilt-in lower sash, allowing you to clean both sides of the bottom portion from inside your home. The fixed upper sash can be cleaned from the inside for interior glass, while the exterior may require cleaning from the outside.
