Commercial Windows
Awning Commercial Windows
Top-hinged sashes that project outward, often placed where the opening should shed rain while cracked.
An awning window is hinged along the top. The sash projects out as it opens. Plans use awnings in baths, kitchens, and corridor-adjacent rooms when the specification wants an operable unit that is not a side-hinged casement.
Because the hinge is at the head, the sill stays in place. Do not substitute an awning for a hopper, which hinges at the sill, unless the documents allow that change.
Where it is specified
- Bath and kitchen unit openings
- Punctuation windows above a fixed lite
- Elevations that call for a top-hinged ventilator

Questions

What is an awning window?
A window hinged at the top so the sash opens outward from the sill.
Can an awning be quoted with a fixed window below it?
Yes, when the elevation shows that combination. Send both opening sizes.
