What is a Double-Hung Window?

First, let’s explain what a window sash is. The window panes of glass are held together by a window sash. The sash sits inside the window frame and moves up or down.

A Double-Hung Window Consists of:

Two operating sashes – one on top and one on the bottom

Sashes move vertically up and down, allowing the window to open

Both lower and upper sash tilt inwards for easy access for cleaning while the screen stays in place.

Double-Hung or Casement Window?

While there are no hard and fast rules, a modern casement window is usually considered more of a modern or contemporary look, while double-hung windows are more traditional or historic. The choice will be important to consider in the overall look and curb appeal of your home. Windows play a major role in architectural appearance.

Kitchen Considerations

Casement windows work well over a counter or sink, because they are easy to reach and open with the crank, while a double-hung window would be difficult to open. Still want the look of a double- hung window over the sink? Add grids to your casement window to imitate the look and feel you desire.

Deck & Bedroom Access

If a casement opens onto a deck, it might block a pathway. A double-hung window might be more suited for this situation. In a bedroom it is important to pick the best window to provide egress from the room. It could be a casement, or double-hung window depending on which will allow the easiest escape.
