What Are Picture Windows?

Picture windows are non-operable, meaning they cannot be opened or closed like traditional windows. They are installed as stationary units within the window frame, providing a permanent and unchanging view of the exterior environment.

Picture windows are valued for their ability to bring the beauty of the outdoors into the interior space, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor environments while maximizing natural light and views. Their timeless appeal, versatility, and energy-efficient properties make them a popular choice for homeowners seeking to enhance the aesthetics and functionality of their living spaces.

Best Solution Windows and Doors is pleased to offer you our picture window installation services.

Custom Shapes

Single-picture windows can be customized to incorporate various shapes and geometries, such as triangles, trapezoids, circles, or polygons. Custom-shaped picture windows add architectural interest and can be used to complement unique architectural features or design elements.

Fixed Picture Windows with Transoms

Fixed-picture windows can be combined with transom windows—smaller windows positioned above the main window—to create custom configurations. Transom windows add height, visual interest, and additional natural light to the window assembly.

Picture Windows with Decorative Grids

Single-picture windows can be enhanced with decorative grids or muntins, which divide the large glass pane into smaller sections. Grid patterns can be customized to match the architectural style of the home, such as colonial, prairie, or craftsman.

Floor-to-Ceiling Picture Windows

Floor-to-ceiling single picture windows span the entire height of a wall, creating a dramatic visual impact and maximizing views of the outdoors. This style is often used in modern and contemporary homes with minimalist design aesthetics.
