Double Hung
Windows
Classic vertical sliding design for easy cleaning and ventilation. America's most popular window style — versatile, beautiful, and built for Georgia homes.
What is a Double Hung Window?
A double-hung window features two operable sashes that slide vertically within the frame. Unlike single-hung windows where only the bottom moves, both the upper and lower sashes can be raised or lowered independently — giving you more control over airflow and easier maintenance.
Modern double-hung windows use a spring-loaded balance system that holds each sash in any position without slamming shut. Most models also feature tilt-in sashes — each panel pivots inward on release latches, allowing you to clean the exterior glass from inside your home.
Benefits of Double Hung Windows
The combination of classic beauty and modern engineering makes double-hung windows the go-to choice for homeowners across Georgia.
Easy Tilt-In Cleaning
Both sashes tilt inward so you can clean exterior glass from inside — no ladders needed, even on upper floors.
Superior Ventilation
Open the top to let hot air escape and the bottom to draw cool air in, creating a natural convection cycle throughout your home.
Energy Efficient
With Low-E glass, argon gas fill, and tight weatherstripping, our double-hung windows meet or exceed ENERGY STAR requirements.
Child & Pet Safety
Open only the upper sash for ventilation while keeping the lower sash locked — reducing the risk of children or pets getting near an open window.
Classic Aesthetics
The symmetrical two-sash design complements every home style — from traditional colonial and craftsman to contemporary builds.
Endless Versatility
Available in a wide range of frame materials, colors, grille patterns, and hardware finishes to match any room and style.
Low Maintenance
Vinyl and fiberglass frames never need painting or staining. Modern balance systems are virtually maintenance-free for decades.
Enhanced Security
Multi-point cam-action locks at multiple locations along the sash provide a tighter seal and stronger security than single-lock designs.
Premium Features We Include
Not all double-hung windows are created equal. Here's what separates a quality window from the rest.
Low-E Glass Coatings
Microscopically thin metallic layers reflect infrared heat while admitting visible light, keeping your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Argon Gas Fill
Inert argon gas between panes reduces heat transfer more effectively than air alone, improving thermal performance by up to 30%.
Double or Triple Glazing
Multiple panes with insulating gas fills provide superior thermal and acoustic performance, keeping your home quiet and comfortable.
Multi-Point Locks
Cam-action locks engage at multiple points along the sash for a tighter weatherseal and significantly stronger security.
Premium Weatherstripping
Continuous fin-seal weatherstripping around all four sides of each sash blocks drafts and moisture infiltration year-round.
Warm-Edge Spacers
Non-metallic spacer systems between panes reduce heat conduction at the glass edge and minimize interior condensation.
Where Double Hung Windows Shine
Their versatile design makes double-hung windows an ideal choice for virtually every room in your home.
Living Rooms & Family Rooms
Classic look fits any home style with flexible ventilation for large spaces.
Bedrooms
Open only the top sash for nighttime airflow while keeping the bottom locked for child safety.
Kitchens
Easy tilt-in cleaning is ideal above sinks and counters where reaching the exterior glass is difficult.
Bathrooms
Open the upper sash to vent steam and moisture while maintaining privacy at the lower level.
Upper Floors & Stairwells
Tilt-in cleaning eliminates the need to access exterior glass from height — no ladder required.
Double Hung vs. Single Hung
The main difference? Single-hung windows have a fixed top sash — only the bottom slides. Here's how they compare.
Our recommendation: Double-hung windows offer significantly more functionality, easier maintenance, and better ventilation — making them the preferred choice for most Georgia homeowners.
