Which Type of Storm Window Is Best for Double-Hung Windows?+
Vertical two-track and triple-track storm windows are usually the best match for double-hung windows because they follow the same up-and-down movement and can include seasonal ventilation.
What Is the Difference Between Two-Track and Triple-Track Storm Windows?+
Two-track storm windows usually include one glass sash and one screen. Triple-track storm windows add another glass sash, which gives more seasonal control and stronger weather protection.
Do Fixed Picture Storm Windows Open?+
Fixed picture storm windows do not open. They are used where the original opening does not need ventilation, such as picture windows, transoms, and other stationary glass areas.
Can Storm Windows Be Made for Unusual Shapes?+
Yes. Specialty storm windows can be made for arches, bays, angled trim, and other non-standard openings when measurements and photos are reviewed before fabrication.
How Do I Choose Between Vertical and Horizontal Storm Windows?+
Choose the storm window style that matches the way the original opening is used. Vertical styles fit most double-hung windows, while horizontal sliders work better for wide openings and side-sliding applications.
