This style of window is not very common but offers a very modern function and design. The hinges used to support the window are placed at the top of the frame allowing it to open upwards and outwards, which explains the name “Awning Window”. A home with such windows installed will be noticeably unique compared to other builds using standard casement or sliding window options.
Despite being somewhat more difficult to wash because of the frame and hinge design, they can be very convenient as a point of exit in case of emergency. It is important to consider that these windows can sit right above eye level if opened on the ground level which can present a danger for anyone walking by.
There are a few factors to consider when choosing Awning windows for your home but our team of specialists is only a phone call away.
This is possible the most common type of window frame available on the market today.
This is due to the convenience and comfort associated with operating these windows. Casement windows have hinged installed vertically along the jamb of the window frame. The opening and closing mechanism is very easy to operate thanks to a handle usually located at the bottom of the frame. These windows usually include a stopper that prevents the window from opening wide enough for someone to enter but can be unlocked from the inside to allow the window to swing fully open and allow for an easy exit in case of emergency. The one disadvantage with this type of frame is that most models lack an insect screen which can allow insects to enter freely through the open window. Despite this, most homeowners and home builders choose casement windows for their projects because of their traditional appearance and convenience.
Slider windows are quite common depending on your area. Its distinctive feature is how these windows open; they do not open outward or inwards but sideways instead. The frame is manufactured in such a shape that lets the windowpane sit within a set of grooves and, with the assistance of sliders or small wheels, allows the window to open side to side nearly effortlessly. Slider windows can be locked from the inside offering peace of mind to those within the home or business while saving space inside and out when the window is in the open position.
This type of window, much like the single slider option, is characterized by its compact design and lateral opening motion. In some cases, especially in colder climates, it is possible to have 2 sets of sliding windowpanes within the same window frame. By adding an additional layer of glazing, you can greatly improve your energy efficiency.
End vent windows are great for rooms with large walls and vast interior space. These windows consist of 2 sliding sashes, one at each extremity of the frame with a fixed pane at the centre.
This type of window is not very popular but can offer great solutions for airflow while being both aesthetically pleasing and easy to maintain.
A single hung window offers a single operable sash that can open either vertically or outward. When it comes to double hung, both sashes are mounted vertically and can open independently from each other.
Remaining fairly flush with the window frame when opened, these windows are perfect for patio spaces or sunrooms. Despite being less common than other types of windows, this frame design can be perfect for your build. As always Orbis Group’s team of glass experts would be happy to help should you have any questions.
Fixed Windows, also known as picture windows, are not designed to open in any direction. Simply a fixed windowpane mounted into a standard window frame, this style of window is often installed in inaccessible areas or manufactured into custom geometric shapes to meet specific design requirements.
Bay windows are often built to meet custom size requirements and include multiple corners that create a bay effect when installed. These windows are used to expand the room within and create a panoramic view.
Bow windows are fabricated for specific architectural details that include curved fenestrations. Very similar to bay windows, bow windows offer a panoramic view with a more rounded final shape than the bay window alternative.
When it comes to planning the location of future windows, large operable windows in living spaces is often the first priority for homeowners. Maximizing air flow and natural light is important, however, window in common living spaces is not the only areas to consider.
Below, we will note the basic glazing aspects to consider when laying out your fenestration plan.
Windows installed at eye level in your kitchen, living room and bedrooms will likely be the most noticeable when first stepping into a home. Usually, builders and homeowners will try to maximize the amount of airflow and visibility of the outdoors by including large windows in these spaces. These windows will usually consist of the majority of your homes window coverage. It is important to consider maximum and minimum allowable window coverages for your project while in the planning phase.
With mechanical rooms and laundry machines create excess heat and are usually located in the basement, maintaining proper airflow while ensuring the safety of your home can become a challenge. We can help you plan your basement’s window layout by considering the necessary airflow requirements for your home and taking into account the need for emergency exits and preventing unwanted guests entering through basement or ground level windows.
Depending on the type of roof covering your home or business, it may be possible to implement sky lights into your project. By being installed through the structure of your roof, this windows placement offers abundant natural light regardless of its direction while giving you a beautiful view of the nights sky. These windows do suffer the risk of leaking over time which can lead to costly repairs. As such, it is important to inspect the sealing products used around your sky light from time to time and address any concerns as soon as they are discovered.
Installing windows up to the peak of your gables will increase the amount of light that is let into your home. These types of windows are often fixed pane windows, which means they can not be open, however, if there is a need for this type of window to open in your particular situation, an operable sash can be implemented into the design.
A feature that is gaining popularity is the concept of glazed terraces that perfectly blend the ambiance of relaxing outdoors while enjoying the comfort of your indoor spaces. This type of glazing usually includes very low-profile frames to increase visibility.
Orbis Group is happy to offer these glazing products as well as any of the windows we have discussed thus far. If you have any interest in glass terrace windows, please give us a call to go over any questions or concerns you may have.
In addition to window installations, we are also capable of supplying and installing all types of exterior doors from standard swing doors to more complex folding glass door systems. Nowadays, vast operable glass doors are exceedingly popular especially in single family homes. Thanks to multiple large panes of glass, these doors are the best option for maximizing natural light as well as marrying your interior and exterior living spaces during the summer months.
Here is a brief description of a few different doors styles we can offer:
When planning to undertake a window installation or replacement project for your home or business, the first question that comes to mind is “How much will this cost?”. The final price for supplying and installing windows for your specific project will depend on a variety of different factors. The first step is to contact a professional window installation contractor and discuss your needs and preferences to establish what kind of window will work best for you as well as the size and amount of individual window frames. Deciding on the location and size of your windows can be an exhausting process without the help of knowledgeable professionals as every area has different requirements in terms of allowable window coverage and venting.
One huge factor that will determine your project cost is the material that is chosen for the window frames. For example, natural wood window frames can be several times the price of vinyl windows for the same window size. Therefore, it is crucial to decide on the options that work best for you and your budget. In addition, the stage of your project is an important factor; planning your fenestration layout for a new construction home will command a different price than a window replacement on a renovation project. This and many other aspects come into play while trying to establish a budget for your specific window/door needs. Below, we will provide you with rough pricing for common window styles fabricated using standard vinyl frames. This can give you preliminary budgetary numbers, however, we encourage you to contact us at Orbis Group to take advantage of our free quotation service.

We ordered siding and windows along with the installation from this company. Manager Tom came to estimate the house. Estimation was free. He counted everything and suggested which materials would be better with best quality. He also talked about the timing, progress of work and stages. All materials were brought free of charge, the entire territory was cleaned and covered with special tents so as not to spoil my garden and lawn, as well as the adjacent territory. The installation scheme was not typical and was proposed by the project manager as the optimal solution for our house design. Tom's team worked well, very efficiently maintaining an average pace and completed all the work in accordance with the established requirements. The working conditions were not satisfactory due to bad weather conditions, but despite this, the quality did not suffer. I was convinced of this once again when my relative (a professional builder) came to visit me from Manitoba and confirmed it. The experience of the construction crew is visible to the naked eye. The team is 100% completed in special equipment and tooling, I liked it. There were times when I asked builders about the tools they use. They showed me and said that all one kit they use costs at least $ 15,000. I noticed Hilti, Makita and other brands, which are very expensive. All the pitfalls were discussed during the construction activities in advance and did not baffle me. Based on the results of the work performed, I can evaluate the construction and installation team and the manager's project for an assessment of "5+". At the end of the construction activities, the area around the house was cleaned up, the remaining materials were disposed of according to the rules. In general, we were satisfied with the work, the price was not to say that it was expensive, but also not cheap. I believe that the entire budget spent on facing our house is fully justified. In confirmation of this, my friend, a realtor, told me that after the renovation, my house grew in price by 78% of the funds spent on the cladding, so I am very pleased, as most likely I will sell it in the near future. Project manager and respectable builders are very good. I and my wife would like to thank this company for the work done on time and for the attitude towards the client.

We had all the siding on our house replaced by Orbis. The only hang-up was a delay in the custom painting of the Hardie, which took a little longer than expected. But it was definitely worth the wait! Tom, our sales rep, was outstanding and very responsive. He was up front about pricing and extremely thorough. Jeremy and his crew did an exceptional job with the install. They were respectful, maintained a clean site, and detailed. I would absolutely recommend Orbis to anyone out there looking for exterior home improvements!
