Basic Window Types
Here are some basic window styles and the benefits of each type.
1. Picture - This fixed window type brings in more natural light into your home.
2. Double hung - This type of window is one of the most commonly used in period homes. It consists of two sashes that move up and down.
3. Casement - This type of window is also called a crank window because of the way it works: it is hinged vertically and opens using a crank. This is used for a more modern look and to allot more ventilation in the room.
4. Sliding/Gliding - This window type is placed on a track and moves left or right. It allows more light to pass through the window.
