Hi,

I have noticed that nowadays, windows of the house normally have fix glass at the bottom or top..example 4' glass for open and 2' fix glass...

but my contractor suggest that do all 6' open because can let the air flow into the house much better...

in the design and trend view, which one better?

Anyone can help me?

Thanks

u should consider if u wana switch on the aircon often or not?..if yes...then 4ft should be ok.......and remember if window too big, and u open frequently,a lot of small flies will come in...
smaller is better my opinion

What type of house? Apartment? Terrace? Bungalow?

Is your house manned 24/7?
Otherwise, it is more practical to have the "fixed" window on the top and bottom for the sake of security.

i'm using 6' height casement window not fix...custom size!

hi, any problem using 6' height casement window not fix? so far so good? how much the width of your windows?

My house got many size of casement window ... for my kid's room is 450mm (W) X 1800mm (H)

My Kithchen is 400mm (W) X 1500mm (H)

My toilet is 450mm (W) X 600mm (H)

All using aluminium casement with powder coated.

My Living all using tempered glass

so far so good...

I am planning to use 1.5-1.6 feet (W) x 6 feet (H) for rooms and 1.5-1.6 feet (W) x 4 feet (H) for wet and dry kitchen..also with powder coated.

Just headache on can't decide want to use fix glass or not...

in my point of view it will look nicer if it is only have 1 panel non fix...

Thanks for your opinion~

welcome...try black powder coated! really awesome!

black? i plan to use white power coated with light green class..

Can I know what is your house exterior painting color?

i would go for 1 panel... sleek n contemporary...
those twin panel per windows is so office like and only suitable for condo

^^

I have two votes for 1 panel...thanks..

my powder coated is white with 6mm green glass.

My exterior paint is Nippon exterior Wall Sealer + Nippon weatherbond brilliant white if i'm not mistaken the code is 1001.

Whether white, dark grey or black will match.

6mm is the thick of the the glass?? is it the standard one? or you choose thicker one?
