Tempe Picture & Bay Windows
Large fixed picture windows, bay and bow windows, and arched or custom shapes.
A picture window is a large fixed pane that frames a view: a backyard, a golf course, or a butte on the skyline. With no moving parts, it seals tightly and lets in the most light for its size.
Bay and bow windows project out from the wall, adding a seat or shelf and light from several angles. Replacing an old bay usually means checking the roof and support above it as well as the glass.
Big glass takes big sun, so we size the glass package for the wall it faces. A west-facing picture window needs a lower SHGC than a north-facing one.
Three angled panels with a deep sill or seat inside.
Four or more panels in a gentle curve.
A fixed center pane with opening windows on each side for airflow.
Arched transoms and shaped windows made to fit.

Yes, though it changes the wall and roof line, so we plan the framing and finish work and check permit needs.
Yes. Arches, half-rounds and other shapes are made to your measurements.
Fixed panes are cleaned from inside and out. Casement side windows open far enough to reach the outside glass on many sizes.
