Benefits

Why Choose Single Hung Windows

Simple Operation

The bottom sash slides up for ventilation while the top sash remains fixed, reducing moving parts.

Space-Saving

No outward projection makes them perfect for rooms adjacent to walkways, patios, or landscaping.

Easy Cleaning

The bottom sash tilts inward, allowing you to clean the exterior glass easily from inside your home.

Security

Positive-action cam locks pull the sash tight against the frame for a secure seal and enhanced home protection.

Efficiency

Multi-chambered uPVC frames and dual weatherstripping minimize air leakage and heat transfer.

Low Maintenance

Durable vinyl construction never needs painting and won't rot, peel, or blister like wood.

Cardinal Glass

Industry-leading Cardinal LoE-180, LoE-272, and LoE-366 glass options
