Choosing the right Double Hung or Picture Window

Choosing between a double hung window and a picture window can be tough. Both are great alternatives when it comes to the home exterior. But which is best? Watch my handy guide to help you choose which is right for your home

Double Hung vs Picture Windo

The first thing to consider when comparing double hung windows vs picture windows is their size. A double hung window is wider than it is tall, whereas a picture window will be taller than it is wide. This allows for more light to enter the room and make things look bigger. Picture windows can add an element of privacy, while double hungs let in plenty of light but don't add any privacy

Another difference between these two types of windows is that a double hung has two panes of glass (one on top of the other), while a picture window has only one pane of glass (either side). This means that when you want to open up the space between them, you'll have to remove them from each other rather than simply lifting one side up like with a standard double hung window or sliding side panel off like with a picture window."
