Styles
Atrium Windows & Doors offers a comprehensive range of style options to complement any architectural design. Their collection encompasses a variety of window types, each with distinct operational and aesthetic characteristics.
For traditional and contemporary homes, the following window styles are available:
* **Single-Hung and Double-Hung Windows:** These classic windows feature vertical sliding sashes. Single-hung windows have a fixed upper sash and an operable lower sash, while double-hung windows allow both sashes to slide vertically for ventilation and ease of cleaning.
* **Sliding Horizontal Windows:** Ideal for wider openings, these windows feature sashes that slide horizontally past each other, offering a clean and unobstructed view.
* **Casement Windows:** These windows are hinged on the side and open outward with a crank mechanism, providing excellent ventilation and a clear, unobstructed view.
* **Awning Windows:** Hinged at the top, awning windows swing outward from the bottom, allowing for ventilation even during light rain. They are often used in combination with other window types.
* **Hopper Windows:** Similar to awning windows but hinged at the bottom and opening inward, hopper windows are typically found in basements or utility rooms.
* **Picture Windows:** Also known as fixed windows, these are designed for maximum light and view, offering a clear, unobstructed pane of glass without an opening mechanism.
* **Bay and Bow Windows:** These expand your living space and add architectural interest. Bay windows typically consist of a central picture window flanked by two angled windows, while bow windows feature a series of identical windows creating a gentle curve.
* **Garden Windows:** These are three-dimensional windows that project outward from the wall, typically featuring shelves inside and a glass roof, creating a mini-greenhouse effect for plants.
Beyond these common operational styles, Atrium Windows & Doors also specializes in:
* **Architectural Shapes:** This category includes a wide array of non-standard shapes designed to make a unique design statement. This can range from geometric forms to custom configurations.
* **Circle Top Windows:** These windows feature a curved top section, adding a touch of elegance and traditional charm to a home's facade.
* **Architectural/Decorative Glass:** Atrium offers options for decorative glass, allowing for customization in terms of privacy, light diffusion, and aesthetic appeal. This can include various textures, patterns, and finishes.
