Egress windows are designed to improve both safety and livability. Whether you’re finishing a basement, adding a lower-level bedroom, or converting storage into a legal living area, an egress window can completely transform the space. They bring in sunlight and allow proper ventilation, which is often missing from underground rooms. These windows also create a rescue opening that satisfies local codes. With several design options—like casement, sliding, or double-hung egress windows—you can match both the function and style of your home.
Egress windows are unique because they combine two essential functions: they let in fresh air and act as an emergency exit. The opening must meet a specific square foot minimum to allow a person to pass through safely. Many homeowners also notice improved airflow and moisture control after installation—especially in basements where air tends to get trapped. Choose from casement egress windows for wide openings or sliding styles for tight horizontal spaces. Either way, you get safety and comfort in one smart package. It’s a small change with a big impact on how your space feels and functions.
No two basements are the same—and egress windows shouldn’t be either. That’s why we offer custom options tailored to your home. Whether you need a narrow sliding egress window or a large casement style with a ladder-equipped well, we’ll help you choose what fits. You can select from window sizes, frame colors, window well materials, and drainage systems. Wells can be round, square, or step-down depending on depth and width. All setups include covers or grates to keep debris and water out.
Turning your basement into a living space? You’ll need an egress window to meet code—and bring in much-needed light. These windows work well in bedrooms, game rooms, home offices, or rental units where extra natural light and safety access are required. They make a space feel bigger and more livable. Many homeowners also use them to legally classify a finished room as a bedroom, increasing square footage on home listings. Whether you’re doing a full remodel or adding one new room, egress windows help you do it right—while keeping the space light, fresh, and secure.
Egress windows keep your home safer—inside and out. Built-in window locks keep the opening secure from unwanted access, while interior ladders allow easy escape if needed. Most units come with polycarbonate window well covers to prevent falls and block debris. Drainage systems are added to redirect rainwater and stop flooding near the foundation. And unlike older basement windows, these models use tempered glass and weather-sealed frames to stand up to the elements. With our secure installations, you get peace of mind knowing your family can get out safely—and that nothing gets in uninvited.
