What Are
Awning Windows?
Awning windows are top-hinged and open outward from the bottom, creating a canopy-like effect. This design allows for ventilation even during light rain, making them ideal for areas where airflow and weather protection are both priorities.
Unlike sliding or single-hung windows, awning windows open with a smooth crank mechanism, making them easy to operate—even in hard-to-reach places like over kitchen sinks or bathtubs.
Features & Benefits of Our Awning Windows
Designed for Ventilation. Engineered for Alberta.
At ASAP Windows & Doors, our awning windows are more than just a stylish addition to your home—they’re a smart investment in comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term performance. Manufactured locally in Calgary, our awning windows are built to handle Alberta’s demanding climate while offering homeowners a sleek, functional, and secure solution for everyday living.
Whether you’re upgrading a bathroom, finishing a basement, or designing a new build, our awning windows are tailored to meet your needs with precision and care.
Effortless Access. Clean Design.
Our awning windows come equipped with push-down screens that feature a pin-less, rust-resistant aluminum frame and durable fibreglass mesh. These screens are designed for easy removal and reinstallation—perfect for seasonal cleaning or quick maintenance. No tools, no hassle—just smooth, simple functionality.
Space-Saving. Stylish. Smooth
Each awning window includes a fold-away crank handle made from stainless steel. These handles tuck neatly out of sight when not in use, offering a streamlined appearance and minimal interference with blinds, curtains, or other window treatments. Built for smooth operation and long-term reliability, they’re as practical as they are elegant.
Secure. Sealed. Smart.
Security and insulation go hand in hand. Our multi-point locking system secures the window sash at multiple points along the frame—typically at the side and top. This ensures:
- Maximum protection against forced entry
- Superior air and water tightness
- Improved energy efficiency through a tighter seal
Built to Perform. Built to Last.
Every awning window is outfitted with premium stainless steel hinges and components that resist corrosion and wear. Whether you open your windows daily or seasonally, our hardware is engineered for smooth, reliable operation in all weather conditions—especially Calgary’s unpredictable climate.
Classic Style. Easy Maintenance.
Add architectural charm to your awning windows with grilles sealed between the glass panes. These decorative elements are available in a variety of styles:
- Colonial
- Prairie
- Double Ladder
- Custom Designs
Because the grilles are enclosed within the glass, they never need cleaning and won’t interfere with your view.
Smart Glass for Smart Homes.
Our awning windows are available with Low-Emissivity (Low-E) coatings that reflect heat back into your home in winter and block solar heat in summer. Choose from:
- Sun-Gate 400 – Ideal for passive solar gain in colder climates
- Solarban-60– Balanced performance for year-round comfort
- Solarban-70– Maximum solar control and UV protection
These coatings help reduce energy bills, improve indoor comfort, and protect your furniture and flooring from fading.
Insulation That Works.
Choose the right level of thermal and sound insulation for your space:
- Double-pane: Great for standard energy efficiency and affordability
- Triple-pane: Ideal for maximum insulation, noise reduction, and energy savings
All sealed units are built with warm-edge spacers and argon gas fills to minimize heat transfer and condensation.
Invisible Insulation. Real Results.
We fill our insulated glass units with argon gas (standard) to reduce heat transfer and improve energy efficiency. These inert gases are:
- Non-toxic and safe
- Long-lasting
- Highly effective at enhancing thermal performance
Combined with Low-E coatings and multi-pane glazing, gas fills make a noticeable difference in your home’s comfort and energy costs.
Tailored to Fit. Built to Perform.
Every awning window we produce is custom manufactured to your exact specifications. Whether you need a compact unit for a bathroom or a wide configuration paired with a picture window, we’ll build it to fit your space, your style, and your performance needs.
We also offer a wide range of frame colours, hardware finishes, and grille patterns to match your home’s aesthetic.
Built to Code. Built to Last.
Our awning windows are rigorously tested and certified to meet or exceed Canadian standards for performance and durability:
- ENERGY STAR® Certified – For superior energy efficiency
- NAFS-11 Tested – North American Fenestration Standard compliance
- CSA A440 Compliant – Air, water, and structural performance
These certifications give you peace of mind that your windows are built to perform—today and for decades to come.
