Awning windows provide an increasingly popular solution to a typical Colorado problem.
Do you love having your windows open, letting that fresh Colorado air in as much as possible? Do you feel disappointed if you have to close your windows when it rains? After all, rain produces those beneficial negative ions, and creates that fantastic “wet grass” aroma.
Awning windows in Denver have a hinge at the top and open outward, allowing fresh air to enter your home while still keeping the rain out. They can be installed to open with or without crank handles and can include a multitude of locking styles for greater home security. Newer awning windows use friction hinges at either end of the top edge. This allows the bottom edge of the awning window to swing open, creating a fresh, contemporary look.
Aside from being able to keep the windows open in a downpour, here are some other benefits of awning windows:
Awning windows in Denver have become increasingly popular in many of the more modern remodels, lofts and office buildings for the ambient airflow and extensive natural light they can provide. Especially when used as a transom (or window above other larger windows) awning windows are a great way to let Colorado’s natural light into your home without having to open or close blinds and drapes.
