A picture window doesn’t open, and sometimes, that’s exactly what you want. These windows offer unique opportunities to create expansive openings — among other benefits, like improved energy efficiency. We'll explain your options and give you some ideas about why you might choose a fixed (or inoperable) window.
With their fixed openings, picture windows present fewer opportunities for leaking air making them the most efficient of all windows.
With their larger sizing, picture windows can be used to create floor-to-ceiling windows or joined with others in window combinations.
With their efficiency and ability to let in light, picture windows work great anywhere you don’t need an operable window, like high on the wall.
Choosing the best windows for each room in your house may seem like a daunting task. You want to balance functionality with aesthetics, while still maintaining a cohesive look throughout your home.
