Replacement Window Question.


I have a window job to do. One issue I'm having is there are two existing awning windows that open up to nearly 90 degrees.The customer is adament about having the new windows open that far. I can't seem to find a window manufacturer anywhere that can provide a replacement awning window that will open up this far.

Any suggestions?

Re: Replacement Window Question.


Harvey Industries has one that opens pretty far. Are you sure you're not looking at a casement put in sideways? The opening arm is on the bottom,and it opens to 90 degrees?

Yes, it is a casement window, and yes Harveys' does have a window that opens that far, but only if it is 16 inches in heighth or less.
