What Are Awning Windows & Why Ottawa Homes Love Them
An awning window opens outward on a top hinge, allowing controlled ventilation while maintaining a compression-style seal when closed. The sash presses firmly against the frame, which helps reduce air infiltration.
In Ottawa, this window style performs well because it handles wind, rain, and seasonal temperature swings. That’s one reason many homeowners across Ottawa choose this window style for practical ventilation and everyday convenience.

Awning Window Colours & Customization Options
Every Ottawa home is different. That is why our awning windows are available in a comprehensive range of factory-applied colours and finish options designed to complement any architectural style — from classic brick colonials in Barrhaven to modern infills in Westboro.
Available Frame Colours
Our RevoCell mPVC awning windows are available in the following durable factory finishes:
- White — The most popular all-around choice, clean and timeless
- Ivory — A warm off-white that pairs well with brick and stone exteriors
- Cashmere — A neutral beige tone for traditional homes
- Clay — Earthy mid-tone that works with darker brick profiles
- Khaki — Versatile warm grey-green for contemporary homes
- Iron Ore — A deep charcoal grey, increasingly popular in Ottawa new builds
- Commercial Brown — A rich warm brown suited to wood-look exteriors
- Black — Bold and modern, especially striking on lighter facades
- Black on Black — Both frame and sash finished in black for a seamless look
All colour finishes are factory-applied and UV-resistant, meaning they will not peel, fade, or require repainting over the life of the window.
Grille Patterns & Styles
Grilles — also called muntins — divide the glass into smaller panes for a traditional or architectural look. All grille options are available on our awning windows.
Internal Grilles
Installed between the panes of glass inside the insulated glass unit. This keeps cleaning simple since there are no bars on the interior or exterior surface. Available in multiple profiles and finishes including white, ivory, and brushed nickel.
Simulated Divided Lites (SDL)
External grilles applied to the surface of the glass unit. SDL grilles give a more authentic divided-lite appearance, popular on heritage and traditional Ottawa homes. Available in several profile widths and finishes.
Grille Patterns Available
- Rectangular — Classic grid pattern, works on both traditional and modern homes
- Contour — Perimeter grille design, associated with Prairie School and craftsman styles
- Diamond — Diagonal pattern for a heritage or cottage aesthetic
- Partial Covering — Grilles on a portion of the glass only, often the top third
- No Grilles — Clean contemporary look with maximum glass visibility
Specialty Glass Options
For rooms where privacy or light control is a priority, we offer the following glass alternatives:
- Frosted Glass — Allows light while obscuring visibility; ideal for bathrooms and street-facing windows
- Bronze-Tinted Glass — Reduces glare and solar heat gain; suited to south and west-facing openings
- Grey-Tinted Glass — A neutral tint that reduces brightness without significantly altering interior colour temperature
- Gluechip Glass — A textured, decorative glass with a subtle frost-like pattern for added privacy and character
Awning Window Installation | FAQ Guide
Comparing styles or planning an install? Here are the questions we hear most and our straightforward answers.
Which is better, a casement or an awning window?
Casements open from the side, while an awning window opens from the top and seals tightly when closed. We recommend the option that fits your ventilation needs and exterior clearance.
How long do awning windows last?
With quality materials and proper installation, many last 20–40 years. Lifespan depends on frame construction, hardware durability, and maintenance.
What is the average cost to install an awning window in Ottawa?
Pricing in Ottawa varies by size, glazing package, and installation scope. We measure your opening and provide a written quote specific to your project.
What is the downside of awning windows?
Because they open outward, they require exterior clearance near walkways or decks. Cleaning the exterior glass may require additional access.
Is an awning window more expensive than a sliding window?
Awning windows often cost more due to crank hardware and compression-style sealing. Sliding windows are typically simpler and lower in price.
Do awning windows let in much air?
The outward sash allows strong airflow and helps capture passing breezes. You can ventilate effectively without fully exposing the opening.
