Frequently Asked Questions What is a double hung window? A double hung window features two operable sashes that slide vertically — allowing the top and bottom to open independently for balanced ventilation. Are these windows suitable for bushfire zones? Yes. When installed with aluminium mesh screens, our Double Hung Windows are rated for BAL29 zones. Can I customise the size or colour? Absolutely. In addition to stocked sizes and colours, we offer custom window sizes and a range of powder-coated colour finishes to suit your project. Read our articles, How to Measure Doors & Windows and How to Choose the Right Colour for Your Windows for more advice. How are double hung windows different from other windows? Double hung windows differ from other types of windows in how they open. Unlike awning windows, which are hinged at the top and open outward, double hung windows slide up and down vertically. Compared to sliding windows, which open horizontally, double hung windows offer vertical movement through two operable sashes—allowing you to open either the top, bottom, or both sections for improved airflow.
