Egress Window Solutions That Prioritize Safety

Smart Escape Routes, Built-In Natural Light
An egress window isn’t just a feature—it’s a safety must-have. Designed as an emergency exit, it provides a clear, code-compliant path out of a room during a fire or other emergency. But it’s also a way to bring fresh air and natural light into your basement or lower level. Whether you’re turning a space into a bedroom or finishing a remodel, the right egress window adds security and comfort. In [Location], these windows are essential for homes with basements or sleeping rooms below ground. Our solutions meet all egress requirements without sacrificing the style of your space.

  • Whether it’s a new egress window or a basement conversion, our work is built for safety and durability.

Smart Design for Safer Lower-Level Living

Bringing Light, Air, and Code Compliance to Every Room
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.
Our team ensures your window fits perfectly and performs reliably in any emergency.

Fresh Air Meets Fast Escape

Ventilation and Emergency Exit in One Simple Design
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.

Why Egress Windows Are a Code Essential

Required by Law—Valued for Peace of Mind
If you’re planning to turn a basement or lower-level space into a bedroom, an egress window is more than a suggestion—it’s the law. Building codes require every sleeping room to have a secondary means of escape in case the main door is blocked. Beyond code compliance, egress windows add real peace of mind. They also increase your property value by converting unfinished areas into legal living spaces. Plus, with more natural light and better airflow, the room becomes more comfortable year-round. It’s a small window that plays a big role in safety, function, and resale potential.

Custom Sizes, Styles, and Well Options

Fit Your Foundation, Space, and Design Vision
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.
Egress Windows

Perfect for Lower Levels and Extra Bedrooms

Brighten Basements and Make Rooms Legal
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.

Security You Can Count On

Locks, Ladders, and Drainage That Protect Inside and Out
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.

Trims, Wells, and Finishes That Complete the Look

Details That Blend Form and Function
Just because it’s for safety doesn’t mean it can’t look great. Our egress windows come with trim kits, interior casings, and well liners that make everything look clean and finished. You can choose a natural stone look, metal walls, or stepped plastic for the window well. Inside, we match your trim style for consistency. Clear covers and custom-fit grates also keep things neat and visible from the outside. These small touches make your new window feel like part of your home—not just a safety feature. The result is a space that’s brighter, better, and beautifully built.

FAqs

Can I choose the type of egress window based on the room layout?

Yes. A casement egress window is ideal for narrow walls since it opens fully with minimal space, while sliding styles suit wider walls with lower clearance.
An egress window must allow a person to escape without tools. It opens wider, sits lower, and includes features like a ladder and window well for a complete rescue path.
Yes—in a good way. These windows bring in more natural light, reduce the closed-in feel, and improve air flow, making the space feel like a true part of the home.
Measure the window opening, not the frame. It must meet the minimum clear opening and height from the floor—or it’s not code-compliant, even if it looks large.
Yes. Skilled egress window installers use compact excavation and protect landscaping where possible. The result is clean and focused, not a major disruption.
