Double-Hung Windows FAQ

What is a double-hung window?

A double-hung window has two movable sashes separated by a meeting rail. With two movable panels, the double-hung is easier to maintain, as both panels typically tilt in. It also provides superior ventilation in comparison to a single-hung window.

Are double-hung windows compatible with grids, blinds-between-the-glass, and rain glass?

Yes, double-hung windows are available with all the accessories that you’ll find on other types of windows. And due to the meeting rail that separates the two panels, double-hung windows also have the same appearance as single-hung windows.

Are double-hung windows a good investment?

Absolutely. Double-hung windows are durable, aesthetically pleasing, and energy efficient. They’re available in numerous materials – such as vinyl, aluminum, and fiberglass – and most manufacturers offer myriad options to fit your style.

Are double-hung windows better for new construction or replacement projects?

Double-hung windows are ideal for both new homes and renovation jobs. Like all window types, they’re manufactured with nail fins for new homes, so that they can be nailed directly into the studs of the structure; double-hung windows used for replacement projects don’t have nail fins because they’re installed directly into the existing structure of the home.

Are double-hung windows easier to clean?

Yes. Since both sashes tilt in – as opposed to just the bottom sash – double-hung windows are easier to clean and maintain than other window types.
