Custom Awning Windows in Greater Montreal
Awning windows owe their name to the fact that they open outwards horizontally, assuming a position similar to that of an awning. They cool the room by creating an air intake from above, which means you can air out your interior with minimum turbulence. Awning windows are energy efficient, very secure, highly durable, and they protect against air and water infiltration. They offer easy handling thanks to a sturdy yet discreet retractable handle.
