Product Overview

Single-Hung Windows

The single-hung window is a traditional style that opens by raising the bottom sash. The top glass in single-hung windows is fixed in place. Features include:

• Fixed meeting rail for structural stability
• Easy installation due to fewer moving parts
• Excellent thermal performance and energy efficiency

In addition, our insulated glass system, our vinyl technology, and our premium weatherstripping help keep energy bills low.

Double-Hung Windows

Also a traditional style, popular double-hung windows open by raising the bottom sash or lowering the top sash of the window. The double-hung window from Showcase offers:

• Ventilation from top or bottom of the window (or both)
• Both sashes tilt in for easy cleaning from inside your home
• Sashes can be easily removed for any needed repairs

Single and Double-Pane Glider Windows

Glider windows open by sliding the operable sash toward the center of the window. Our Earthwise custom-made windows have a gliding single or double pane (sometimes called a “lite”). These can be manufactured so that either the left or right sash is operable.

The Earthwise brand from Showcase gives you:

• An operable sash which glides on high‐quality rollers
• A fixed meeting rail to provide superior structural stability

Casement and Awning Windows

Both casement and awning windows are hinged and open outward with a rotary crank handle. Casement windows open from the side while awning windows open at the bottom.

These types of windows offer you:

• Unobstructed viewing areas
• Maximum ventilation

Picture Windows and Other Fixed Styles

Picture windows are stationary and cannot be opened. This is called a “fixed” window. Fixed windows are often used as a main feature, providing unobstructed views while allowing a large amount of natural light indoors. Picture windows can be used alone or in a grouping with other window styles.

Smaller fixed Accent Windows include:

• Transom windows—used as accents around larger windows
• Geometric shapes which are also popular as accent windows and include half-rounds, quarter-rounds, triangles and more

Bay and Bow Windows

What’s the difference between a bay and a bow window? The bay window protrudes farther from a wall than a bow window, which is shaped in a gentle curve.

The bay window creates more open space. The most popular configuration is a central fixed window flanked by two other windows, usually casement or double-hung styles which permit ventilation.

Bow windows contain four or more windows. The windows join to form a gentle “bow” shape. Similar to a bay configuration, the center bow of the window typically fixed while the side windows are operable.

Both bay and bow windows offer these features:

• Project outward from the room for a dramatic look
• Allow for plenty of natural light
