Awning Windows
Top-hinged windows that open outward for ventilation even in light rain, with a clean, classic profile.
- Awning opening (regression-tested)
- Tight, Secure Seal — Closes by pressing firmly against the frame on all sides, for a tighter seal than many sliding window styles.
- Double Glazed for Comfort — Paired with double glazing for improved insulation, noise reduction, and energy efficiency.
- Easy to Reach and Operate — Simple crank operation makes them easy to use above sinks, benches, and other hard-to-reach spots.
Overview
Awning windows are hinged along the top edge and open outward from the bottom, working much like a small awning over the opening. This lets you keep the window open for airflow even during light rain, without water getting inside — ideal for Melbourne's changeable weather.
Because they close by pressing firmly against the frame on all sides, awning windows form a tighter seal than many sliding styles when shut. Paired with double glazing, this helps improve insulation, cut draughts, and reduce outside noise.
Their crank-operated opening makes them easy to use in hard-to-reach spots, and they can be left ajar for ventilation without leaving a large gap accessible from outside — a popular choice above kitchen sinks, benches, and bathrooms.
