Picture Window Features

Picture windows are large, fixed-pane windows that do not open. The focal point of a picture window lies in the glass pane that creates a huge view without the presence of any grilles. Window grilles are decorative, narrow strips on a window that form vertical and horizontal grids. This design captures the attention of anyone who enters a space with large picture windows.

Benefits of Picture Windows

A picture window is the right choice for those who like to enjoy a beautiful view from anywhere inside your home. The simplicity of not having any breaks or visible frames in a large window is what makes picture windows so unique.

By installing picture windows, homeowners can enjoy the essence of nature from the comfort of your couch. Picture windows will brighten up any room by allowing an abundance of natural sunlight to fill the room.

Picture windows are very secure. Due to the window being inoperable, homeowners do not have to worry about any unwanted guests trying to break in through the window.
