Windows windows are described as being either 'operable', or 'fixed'. operable windows can be opened and closed to allow air passage. fixed windows are always closed.

double hung window

parts of a double hung window 1. Head The main horizontal member forming the top of the window or door frame. 2. Jamb The main vertical members forming the sides of a window or door frame. 3. Frame The enclosure in which window sash or door panels are mounted. 4. Glazing Glass in a window or door; the act or process of fitting with glass.

5. Pane A framed sheet of glass within a window. 6. Sash A single assembly of stiles and rails made into a frame for holding glass. 7. Sill The main horizontal member forming the bottom of the frame of a window or door. 8. Muntin Bar Any small bar that divides a windows glass. Also called a grille or windowpane divider.

Standardization Many products are manufactured in 'standard' sizes. This does not mean that the product cannot be made in a different size, but it may mean that to do so will require time, effort, and expense.

Custom made 'custom' made means that the component is made specifically for a particular situation. 'custom' designed components are a common component in interiors projects, but each project, and each client/user, sets a scenario in which it will be determined that a 'custom' piece is appropriate, and feasible.

Windows and doors are manufactured in standard sizes, such as: 2'-8" x 6'-8" for an interior passage door 3'-0" x 6'-8" for entrance doors

Astragal A vertical member attached to the meeting edge of one door panel of a pair, bridging the opening between the two door or window panels

Mullion The stationary frame piece that separates mulled window or door units. Being joined by mullions makes multiple window or door units appear to be one. Not to be confused with “muntin bar.” Muntin Bar A short, light-weight bar that visually divides a window into “separate” panes. Not to be confused with “mullion.”

Rails The top and bottom horizontal pieces of a door panel or window sash. R-Value Resistance to heat flow, a high R-value indicates that a window has good heat-insulating properties, whereas a low R-value indicates that a window has less heat-insulating value.

R value and U value U-factor is the measurement of heat transfer through a given building material. R-value depicts the amount of resistance a product has to heat transfer. The R-value is inversely proportional to the U-factor. That is, the higher the R-value of a window, the lower its U-factor will be… The higher the R-value, the higher the resistance to energy transfer through the window.

Sash The part of a window that holds the glass and is separate from the frame. In venting windows, it is the sash which can be opened and closed. Stiles The vertical pieces of a window or door sash panel.
