Awning windows are hinged at the top and generally wind out at the bottom. A beautifully practical style that lets you leave the windows open slightly even in light rain, then wind in tight to seal against the weather.
A Stylish, Practical, and Energy-Efficient Choice for Modern Australian Homes
Awning windows are a popular choice among Australian homeowners, known for their clean lines, versatile function, and excellent weather protection. Hinged at the top and opening outward from the bottom, they provide ventilation while shielding interiors from rain and wind. Whether you’re considering a full window replacement in Sydney, as part of a renovation, or simply upgrading to more energy efficient windows, awning windows offer an ideal solution.
Why Awning Windows are a Homeowner Favourite
Awning windows are not only functional but add an aesthetic edge to your property. Their design allows for secure ventilation, even during light showers, which makes them a practical fit for various rooms and weather conditions.
Perfect for Bathrooms and Laundries
Their unique configuration makes awning windows an excellent choice for spaces requiring constant airflow. In bathrooms, they pair well with obscure glass, maintaining privacy while still letting in natural air. In laundries, they provide effective ventilation and moisture control while keeping out rain, wind, and dust—making them ideal for all-weather airflow.
Enhancing Street Appeal
A key visual benefit of awning windows lies in their streamlined design. With flyscreens fitted internally, they offer uninterrupted exterior aesthetics, making them ideal for the home’s front façade. The ability to choose from a range of materials and finishes, including aluminium windows and timber windows, further enhances their street-facing charm.
