Whether you want something all-white and modern or something made from Cherrywood with bronze hardware, you can get it. You can also look into double-hung or slider windows.<\/p>\n<p>You most likely want your next windows to be more energy efficient than your current set and it\u2019s always nice if they\u2019re user-friendly as well. Double-hung and slider windows are two of the most popular window styles on the market today. They\u2019re pretty much the same thing except one opens horizontally while the other opens vertically. However, the two styles look and function in quite a different manner. If you are going back and forth between the styles, this could help.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Use Double-Hung Windows\u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Double-hung windows have two movable sashes and work great in rooms with tall ceilings or a lot of vertical wall space. They are designed for performance and looks, and they are easier to clean than other styles because they tilt in so you can clean the outside from the comfort of your home. You will want to choose these windows if:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You have a space that is taller than it is wide<\/li>\n<li>You want options to open the window at the top or bottom or both for ventilation<\/li>\n<li>You need safety precautions for young children so you can open just the top and not worry<\/li>\n<li>You want tilt-in features for cleaning<\/li>\n<li>You have a window air conditioner to situate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Use Slider\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.southgateglass.com\/replacement-windows-doors-folsom-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Windows in Folsom, CA<\/a>\u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Sliding windows are horizontal and are also sometimes called glider windows. They function similarly to double-hung, but slide side to side instead of up and down. They also have a number of colors, finishes, and even opening mechanisms. You might want to choose these windows if\u2026<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You have a space that is wider than it is tall<\/li>\n<li>You want a wider view with fewer obstructions<\/li>\n<li>You want a variety of ventilation options<\/li>\n<li>You want small physical demands in opening<\/li>\n<li>You want something that closes tightly for energy efficiency<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Keep in mind that when you choose a window style, it doesn\u2019t have to be an either\/or deal. You can put double-hung windows in the living room, for example, and sliders in the kitchen. Choose what works best on a room by room basis and you may very well end up with some of each.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re ready to make decisions and move forward with the process,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.southgateglass.com\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">contact Southgate Glass<\/a>\u00a0at <a href=\"tel:(916)476-8396\">916-476-8396<\/a> for a free consultation.
