What Are Single Hung Windows?
Single hung windows are the classic, traditional window style found in millions of homes. They consist of two sashes stacked vertically. The top sash is fixed in place, while the bottom sash slides upward to open and allow airflow. This simple, elegant design is incredibly reliable, easy to operate, and fits perfectly with nearly any architectural style.
While the design is classic, the technology is modern. Anlin and Simonton build heavy-duty vinyl single hung windows equipped with advanced balance systems so the lower sash lifts with just the push of a finger.

Why choose vinyl for single hung windows?
Older wood or aluminum single hungs are notorious for broken pulleys, snapped cords, and slamming shut. Modern vinyl frames house sophisticated, hidden coil balances that never rust or rot, ensuring smooth operation forever.
What is the difference between single hung and double hung?
In a single hung window, only the bottom sash moves. In a double hung window, both the top and bottom sashes can slide up and down.
