Window Types

Tilt & Turn Windows

Tilt and turn windows are European style windows that are both stylish and functional in a home. These types of windows work well in contemporary, rustic, modern, and other styles of homes and work by tilting open at the top or swinging open like a door. One handle conveniently and easily operates the window with both of these two options. They also offer unique ventilation benefits and look great in various rooms of a home.

Features of Tilt & Turn Windows

Option to tilt open or swing open
Great ventilation
One handle for easy and accessible operation
Unique style that adds character to any room
Various sizes available to suit your space
Large window surface area to allow more natural light inside
Easy access to the outside that can serve as an egress emergency exit

Hung Windows

Hung windows are commonly used in traditional homes and buildings but also a beautiful choice in contemporary designs. Double hung windows are the most popular hung window type. The bottom sash can slide up and the top sash can slide down to provide maximum ventilation. Simultaneously opening both sashes allows warm air that has risen to escape out the top while cooler air flows in through the bottom sash. Windows can also be configured as a Single Hung window, in which only the bottom sash can be opened. Currently Super Enterprises only offers Hung type windows on commercial window projects.

Types of Hung Windows

Single Hung windows. This window delivers the traditional look, but only the bottom sash can be opened. In general, single hung windows are a less expensive option than a similarly sized double hung window.
Cottage windows. A double hung window with a smaller sash on top and a larger sash on the bottom. The top sash may have divided lites while the bottom can have none.
Oversized Double hung windows are available in sizes up to 5 feet wide or 10 feet high for maximum views. These tend to appear in commercial buildings such as schools, office buildings, and churches.

Casement Windows

Casement windows, also known as crank or hinged windows, are a popular style of windows that are designed for expansive views and ventilation. Casement windows are hinged on one side and can swing inwards or outwards by cranking out, pushing, or pulling the window hardware until the desired position is reached.

Option to either crank out or push out
Available in various shapes and styles
Concealed multi-point sequential locking system to securely lock the window at multiple points
Accessible windows with easy-to-reach levers near the bottom of the window
Effective ventilation for healthy airflow

Added security due to the hook-shaped latch in the frame and locking hardware

Awning Windows

Awning windows exemplify simplicity and high-quality performance and are commonly used as a complement to casement or picture windows. Due to their simplicity, they are ideal for over sinks, kitchen counters, and other hard-to-reach locations. Awning windows swing out from the bottom and feature push-out or crank-out styles. These windows are operated with locking hardware that is located near the window sill.
