Window Style

You’ll find that there are many replacement windows styles available for residential properties. At Miracle Windows & Doors, we offer a range of options that you can mix and match when replacing your home windows, including:

Window Operation

In a way, the window style you pick affects the window’s operation, or how the window opens and closes. For instance, the hinge placement affects how windows open, such as top hinges on awning windows that swing outwards at an angle from the home.

You can also install space-saving windows, like slider windows that slide left or right in a track rather than swinging open. If you aren’t sure how a particular type of window operates, our window contractors can explain it during a consultation.

Energy Efficient Window Features

One of the biggest concerns that homeowners have is the energy efficiency of their replacement windows. We offer many window features designed to improve efficiency, such as:

  • Hurricane Glass & Impact Glass
  • Low-E Glass
  • Double- or Triple-Pane Glass
  • Gas Fills
  • Weather-stripping & Seals

Frame Options

Replacement windows are sometimes made in a range of different materials, including:

  • Vinyl
  • Fiberglass
  • Metal
  • Wood

When you order new windows, you may also be able to pick one material for the interior frame and another for the exterior. It’s not uncommon to see a wood interior and vinyl or fiberglass exterior frame. These are also finished with a custom color or stain, such as white, gray, black, or another color that can serve as an accent to the home exterior.

Types of Glass

Homeowners may also want to look into different types of glass for their windows. These can include:

  • Standard Glass: Your standard pane of glass with no alterations or additional materials.
  • Tempered Glass: Heat treated glass that is more resistant to breakage and shatters into small pieces instead of large shards.
  • Laminated Glass: A type of glass with a piece of clear plastic between two panes. When the glass shatters it sticks to the plastic instead of getting everywhere.

Etching

It’s also possible to etch your window glass in decorative designs and patterns. Etched glass can be made with grooved lines, swirls, and more involved artwork in frosted or clear-cut glass.

Privacy Glass

Depending on where you install replacement windows in your home, you may want to use privacy glass in the frames. There are a few ways to give the residents a little privacy in the bathroom, the entry ways, or the kitchen, including:

  • Frosted Glass
  • Rain or Waterfall Textures
  • Pebble Textures
