Buying The Right Windows
Select the window style that best fit your project needs using this helpful guide.
Casement Windows - Contemporary style with more light and a larger view. Casement windows are more common in newer homes and are typical in the western part of the United States. Pella® casement windows are a great choice where windows can be difficult to reach, such as over the kitchen sink. Our patented Unison Lock system secures both upper and lower locks with a single easy-to-reach handle.
Awning Windows - Similar in design to casement windows, but wider than they are tall. Awning windows are commonly used for ventilation when placed above or below a window or door; they provide more light and are often used in homes with traditional, double-hung windows.
Double-Hung - A more traditional appearance than casement windows. Double-hung windows are common in older homes in the eastern part of the United States. They’re a great choice if you want to maximize the amount of wood on the interior of a home. Double-hung windows come in larger widths (up to 45”) and may help save money—put one larger window in place of two smaller, narrower casement window.
Bay/Bow Windows - Window combinations that reach out into the world and capture the view in a limited amount of space. Bay windows are typically three windows joined together. The center window is often fixed with operating double-hung or casement windows on the sides. Bow windows consist of four or more casement windows joined together to form a graceful curve.
Fixed Windows - Windows that cannot be opened. Available in a wide range of sizes, in rectangular and custom shapes, and in a variety of standard, feature and custom exterior cladding colors. They can be used by themselves, in a variety of applications or with other products, providing endless possibilities. Fixed frame windows are available in sizes up to 48 square feet.
Circlehead Windows - A little touch that makes a big difference. Circlehead windows are designed to fit perfectly over other windows and doors. They can also be beautiful accents on their own.
