Fixed Frame Windows

Fixed Frame Windows are typically the most affordable window type available.  They require less hardware since they or inoperable and non-venting.  Just like their name says, they are fixed and therefore do not open or close.  As a result, fixed frame windows are a good choice if you are looking for added security.  Also, they are known for letting in the most light because you can have large panes of glass with little or no obstructions.  Fixed frame windows are available in many shapes and sizes and can be combined with other windows to create a unique look for your home.  It is important to consider where you are installing a fixed frame window to make sure you will never want to open the window in that area.  Additionally, make sure that you do not have a need for a fire escape in that particular area.
