So, we are going to be talking about awning windows and why they are becoming one of the top Canadian Choice windows.

For those of you who are not aware, awning windows are basically hinged at the top and open outwards and fixed in place by a crank, which keeps the sash secure. Awning windows are normally used in basements, bathrooms and on higher locations but are slowly integrating into windows throughout the house. Awning windows are sturdy and have options ranging from wood and metal to aluminum and fiberglass as well and are pocket-friendly as well.
