Awning Windows in Central New York | New York Sash
Awning windows hinge along the top and open outward at the bottom. The sash forms a small canopy over the opening, making the style useful for ventilation during light weather and for compact locations where a vertical or horizontal sliding sash is less convenient.
Planning Your Awning Windows Project
Awning units can sit higher on a wall for privacy, under a larger fixed window, or in certain basement openings. Crank clearance, screen location, exterior space, and the direction of water runoff should all be checked. New York Sash measures the opening and reviews whether the placement is suitable before ordering.
Awning Windows Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can an awning window be open when it rains? A: Its top-hinged shape can help deflect light rain, but it should be closed during wind-driven or severe weather. Q: Where is the screen on an awning window? A: Because the sash opens outward, the screen sits on the room side. Q: Can awning windows be installed high on a wall? A: Yes, if the handle remains safely reachable or an appropriate operating solution is selected. Q: Can an awning be paired with a picture window? A: Yes. An awning can be placed below or, where the system permits, above fixed glass to add ventilation to a larger composition. Q: Is an awning window automatically suitable for bedroom egress? A: No. Clear opening dimensions and local requirements must be checked for the exact unit and opening.
