Double-Hung Windows

A double-hung window can be raised from the bottom or lowered from the top with two sashes that move independently. The two sashes are stacked and meet in the middle with a latch that locks the window shut.

Ideal Location

Double-hung windows are simple to clean as both sashes tilt inward for easy access to the interior and exterior glass surfaces. Because double-hung windows ventilate without protruding inwards or outwards, they maximize both interior and exterior space, making them popular choices in entertainment spaces like patios and porches.

Design Style

Double-hung windows are common choices in traditional and farmhouse homes. Adding a simple grille pattern furthers the traditional aesthetic, bringing modest detail and charm.

Frequently Asked Questions

When cleaning double-hung windows, tilting the sashes in makes it easy to clean exterior surfaces from the interior of your home. Clean the top sash first, starting with the exterior and followed by the interior, and then repeat the same process on the lower sash.

Double-hung windows have two sashes that slide up and down independent of one another. They can be raised from the bottom or lowered from the top with sashes that tilt in for easy cleaning.

The sash is the moveable part of a window made up of the vertical and horizontal frame that holds the glass. Single-hung windows are also known as single-sash windows, while double-hung windows are commonly referred to as double-sash windows.

The difference between single-hung and double-hung windows is the number of sashes that move. A single-hung window has one fixed, or non-operable, sash and one operable, or moveable, sash. A double-hung window has two operable, or moveable, sashes.
