Garden Window Replacement & Installation

A garden window is a unique architectural feature that projects outward from the exterior wall of your home, creating a three dimensional mini greenhouse. While they look similar to a small bay window, they are specifically designed with glass on all sides and a glass roof to capture sunlight from every angle. This style is a favorite for homeowners who want to add visual depth to their house while creating a functional indoor display space.

How They Operate

A garden window usually has two operable mini-casement windows on each side and an additional stationary picture window as the back and roof. The side windows are operated by small cranks to allow the desired level of ventilation.

Since garden windows can be installed in almost any regular size window they can be a great addition to any home.

A large garden window can make a huge difference in the look and feel of your home. Adding light and greenery can make any room feel bright and open.

In addition to adding space and light, a kitchen garden window can increase the overall value of your home. Don’t let the freezing winter temperatures stop you from growing your favorite plants all year long.

Additional Space

Although garden windows are typically used as a mini indoor greenhouse, they can be used to showcase anything you want. Vases, picture frames and holiday decorations are just a few of the endless possibilities you have when decorating your garden window.

The garden window provides a perfect living space for your potted plants or a small herb garden. It has access to great lighting and it’s also a safe space away from children or pets. Since these windows are usually found above the kitchen sink, it makes for easy watering. In addition to adding space, garden windows also provide you with a clear view of your yard or garden. This will let you enjoy your outdoor plants without even stepping outside.

Natural Light and Fresh Air

Garden windows have three glass sides as well as a glass ceiling. This allows natural light to pour in from both the top and sides. Garden windows can be a great way to brighten up a dark kitchen or any room in your home that needs some added natural light.

You also have the option to open your home’s garden window to enjoy some fresh air. This allows for added ventilation in your kitchen. If you do a lot of cooking you know how warm it can get in the kitchen. Having a garden window with two operable side windows is an amazing way to increase air flow.

Ideal Locations for Bow Windows

While you can install a garden window in any room to add charm, they are most commonly found in the kitchen. The accessibility of the sink makes watering plants a breeze, and the side venting options are perfect for clearing out cooking steam. They are also an excellent choice for a bathroom or a sunroom where you want to add a custom, high end feel to your home.
