Baltimore Double-Hung Windows
Timeless Double-Hung Windows Suit Variety of Baltimore-Area Home Styles
Established in 1729, Baltimore is one of the country’s oldest cities — and its architecture reflects it. From the Federal- and Italianate-style row houses of Baltimore proper to the spacious Colonials and brick Craftsmans of suburbs like Ellicott City and Towson, double-hung windows are a constant across Charm City homes.
Also known as sash windows, double-hung windows feature two operable sashes that slide vertically within the frame, so you can open the top or bottom sash for enhanced ventilation. Beyond the additional airflow, their ease-of-operation and timeless look make double-hung windows a popular pick among Baltimore homeowners.
Commonly known as: sash windows, hung sash windows

Special Shape Windows
Contemporary styles favor clean, straight lines and sharp angles, but with traditional architecture still so prevalent around Baltimore, you’ll often see a curved or half-circle shaped window situated atop double-hung windows. Although stationary, special shape windows are great for adding visual interest, increasing natural light flow and preserving historic integrity.

Modern Customizations
Just as double-hung windows can be adorned in historically authentic grille patterns and brass hardware, they can be dressed down, too, to suit contemporary home styles. Consider a sleek black finish for your windows, matte black hardware and simple grilles like Cross, Special and Top Row patterns, which still provide the look of individual window panes but in a modern way.
