Generally, yes. Because they lack moving parts, hardware, and screens, picture windows are often more cost-effective per square foot. ### Can I get custom shapes? Yes, picture windows can be manufactured in a wide variety of architectural shapes, including arches, circles, trapezoids, and triangles.
