Offering & Installing Top-Quality Replacement Windows in Los Angeles County, CA
When you’re having new windows installed in your home, one of the first things you’ll want to know is which types of replacement windows will be best for certain rooms. The honest truth is that in almost all cases, there isn’t one “right” answer. But that’s where the experts at American Reliable Windows & Doors come in handy. We’re known throughout Los Angeles County, California for helping our customers find the perfect window styles for their needs and their budgets.
Types of Windows We Carry
American Reliable Windows & Doors offers and installs the following 11 replacement window styles:
Awning Windows
These crank-operated windows can come in handy when you want to air out a room in less-than-perfect weather. Because the sash tilts upward, opening an awning window can create instant overhead cover to help keep rain out of a room.
Bay Windows
One of two styles that affects both the interior and exterior of a home, bay windows are essentially a set of three windows that are grouped together and designed to protrude from a home. This creates an attention-grabbing look outside the home and a new alcove space inside.
Bow Windows
Bow windows are extremely similar to bay windows, but with two key differences. Bow windows are typically larger than bay windows, and they always have more than three window panels.
Casement Windows
These are opened and closed just like awning windows, but turning the hand crank instead causes the sash to swing outward like a door. Casement windows’ exceptional ventilation makes them ideal for bathrooms and smaller spaces that may need ventilation.
Single-Hung Windows
These windows have always been popular thanks to their timeless design, which can be adapted to suit any architectural style, and their easy-to-open sashes. Because only one sash is operable, these windows are best installed on the ground floor.
Double-Hung Windows
Double-hung windows are just like single-hung windows in most areas, but both of their sashes can be opened and closed. They are also easier to clean, making them ideal for rooms on any story of your home.
Garden Windows
Garden windows have three-dimensional construction which creates a “shelf” that can be used to display small plants and get them plenty of sunlight.
Picture Windows
These replacement windows have no operable parts and typically run large, creating a picturesque view of the world outside. Their hidden benefit is that, thanks to their simple construction, picture windows are some of the most energy efficient windows on the market.
Specialty Shape Windows
This is a term used to describe any shape that isn’t a typical square or rectangle. Think circles, half-moons, triangles, arches, octagons, and more.
Sliding Windows
These windows are most similar to sliding patio doors in both their looks and their operation, but they are scaled down to fit window openings within your home. They slide smoothly along a track when opened and closed, and they usually work best in larger window openings.
Tilt & Turn Windows
These European-style replacement windows can be opened and closed in two different ways. They can be tilted inward, creating an opening at the top that can redirect rainwater away from the room, or they can swing open into the house like doors.
