Quick Links
Sliding Windows
Sliding windows glide horizontally on tracks and are a favorite for their simplicity, affordability, and low maintenance. They’re ideal for spaces where an outward-opening window isn’t practical.
- Best for: Basements, kitchens, small bedrooms .
- Engery Tip: We install double or triple-pane sliders with thermal breaks to reduce drafts and condensation.
Single-Hung & Double-Hung Windows
Hung windows operate vertically — single-hung models have a fixed upper sash, while double-hung allow both sashes to move. These are popular in traditional homes and duplexes, offering a classic look with excellent ventilation.
- Best for: Renovation projects, multi-unit buildings, classic home styles .
- NOTE: We seal every frame to prevent air leaks and ensure smooth operation year-round.
Awning & Hopper Windows
Awning windows are hinged at the top and open outward — great for airflow, even during rain. Hopper windows are hinged at the bottom and open inward, often used in basements for code-compliant egress and ventilation.
- Best for: Bathrooms, basements, laundry rooms .
- Detail: Both styles can be installed higher on the wall for privacy without sacrificing light or air.
Tilt-and-Turn Windows
These European-style windows are incredibly versatile: they tilt inward at the top for gentle ventilation, or swing in like a door for full access. They are airtight, secure, and perfect for passive house designs.
- Best for: Modern homes, energy-conscious upgrades, large openings .
- Installed with: Reinforced anchoring and insulation for optimal performance .
- CSA-compliant: Yes — fully installed to meet or exceed A440 standards.
Fixed Windows
Fixed or picture windows are non-operable and provide unobstructed views and maximum daylight. While they don’t open, their performance depends entirely on expert sealing and installation — especially in cold climates.
- Best for: Stairwells, entryways, modern façades .
- Available in: Any shape or size — square, rectangle, custom geometric.
Bay, Bow & Architectural Windows
Bay and bow windows extend outward from the home, creating space and dimension. We install them with structural support, custom trim, and thermal breaks. Architectural windows (arched, circular, triangular) add visual interest and must be carefully sealed to prevent air and water infiltration.
- Best for: Façades, living rooms, curb appeal upgrades .
- Why Fentec: These windows require perfect measurements and professional finishing — no room for error.
Oversized & Panoramic Windows
For projects with large spans of glass, our team is fully trained and equipped with hydraulic suction systems and cranes. These windows elevate the design of any space — but only if installed correctly.
- Best for: New builds, high-end renovations, penthouses .
- Fentec strength: Safe transport, expert lifting, perfect alignment.
