When you want that extra wow factor, this is your window. Flexible in shape and size, the specialty window lets you boost curb appeal in a totally unique way. Whether you select a single standout window or create a showstopping combination, here are the details you need to know.
Specialty windows are the ones you pick when you’re looking for a non-standard shape. Of course, they can be circles, arches, and ovals. But they can also be triangles, trapezoids, and so much more.
Typically, they are fixed windows, which means they don’t open. This enables them to be larger than windows that do open. They’re also often combined with other windows (specialty or not) to make a standout combination.
We offer specialty windows through a variety of product lines, including the E-Series, A-Series, 400 Series, and 100 Series.
Specialty windows can do a lot for your home — no matter if it’s traditional or modern in style. Here are the top reasons to consider this type of window:
This is a great option when you’re looking for one of the most popular shapes — think a circle or an oval. These windows are made of wood with a durable vinyl coating on the exterior.
We often see this option selected when there’s a desire to add a single unique shape as an accent or create a smaller-scale, traditional window combination, like a half-circle transom above a double-hung window. It’s a good choice on a home featuring 400 Series Tilt-Wash Double-Hung Windows or 400 Series Casement Windows because the sight lines will match.
These windows are available in expanded sizes and shapes beyond what you’ll find through the 400 Series Specialty Window offerings. They are wood clad with a fiberglass or aluminum exterior. The latter is used to make curved shapes. We often see this option selected when more specialization is needed — for example, to create a window that mirrors the roofline or when there’s a desire to combine windows to create a one-of-a-kind window combination. This is a good option when you seek to join windows together into a large unit.
Choose these windows when you need the most specialization of all. They’re made of wood with an aluminum coating on the outside. If you’re looking for a unique shape in a monumental size, this is a great option.
Springline refers to an arch shape that's round on top and square at the base. The bottom of the window is straight with right angles on both bottom corners. The vertical sides gradually curve together creating a circle on top. It’s a graceful shape that suits lots of different traditional home styles — especially various Spanish-style homes.
Our Springline windows come in different variations, sizes, and materials. Find this option available through the 100 Series, 400 Series, A-Series, and E-series product lines.
