Awning windows with a simple design, easy opening and closing ability, and especially high safety are now widely applied in construction projects. This article will provide some information for customers to better understand awning windows and their practical applications. Let’s explore through the article.
1. What is an awning window?
A single-sash awning window is a type of window where the sash is pushed upward when opened. A single-sash awning window has the sash opening upward when in use. This type of window is widely used in various projects, from residential buildings to industrial areas, resorts, and hotels.
The outstanding advantage of this window is its effective resistance to wind and rain, especially suitable for areas with harsh or windy weather. With a multi-point locking system, the sash is tightly pressed against the frame, enhancing airtightness, ensuring safety, and minimizing the risk of rainwater leakage.
2. Structure of casement/awning windows
To ensure proper operation and optimize functionality, the structure of aluminum-glass awning windows usually includes:
Aluminum frame: Includes the window frame and the sash frame. This is also the factor that determines the durability of the window, especially in areas with harsh weather. The frame can use powder coating technology for normal weather conditions, or Anode Nickel ED coating for projects in harsh environments.
Glass panel: Plays the role of bringing natural sunlight into the house, the glass panel is installed firmly into the aluminum frame. Two common material options are tempered glass or regular glass. The glass can also be covered with decals to increase shading or create a distinctive look for the project.
Lock and handle accessories: Accessories that go along with the window to form a complete product include: A-shaped hinges, handles, multi-point locks, gaskets, … and some other accessories.
3. Advantages of using awning windows
The reason why aluminum-glass awning windows are chosen by many customers is because of their outstanding advantages such as:
Good soundproofing and insulation: With the sturdy structure of the aluminum frame and hollow chambers inside the profile, aluminum-glass windows have good soundproofing and thermal insulation. In addition, the gasket system and tight adhesive lines help prevent rainwater from leaking inside the house.
Create ventilation and comfort: Thanks to the ability to tilt outward, awning windows when opened can effectively bring wind into the house, while preventing rain from splashing inside without needing to close the window. This maximizes the use of natural air inside, especially in locations where other types of windows cannot be installed.
- Save space: Not only can they save indoor space, but they can also save outdoor space when opened. Because of the A-shaped opening angle and the adjustable multi-point lock (the A-shaped hinge can adjust the opening angle, while the multi-point lock is only for locking), the window can be opened even in spaces with narrow outside clearance.
- Make use of natural light: The ability to open combined with glass also increases the ability to bring natural light into the house, keeping the home always warm and full of vitality.
4. Notes when choosing awning windows
With the summarized information above, it has explained and provided the reason why aluminum awning windows are widely used in modern projects. To ensure both aesthetics and functionality, when choosing windows, some notes should be considered as follows:
Determine the appropriate window size, balanced with the room’s area. Do not choose oversized windows for small spaces, as it affects both feng shui and usable space.
Use aluminum-glass brands with reputation, long-standing production experience, and high warranty policies. This is an important factor that helps the window remain durable over long periods of use, effectively protecting your home.
Choose window colors that harmonize with the interior, ensuring balance among the colors.
The placement direction of windows according to feng shui is also extremely important, helping bring positive energy and good vitality for the family’s health.
