Double-hung aluminum window with slim sightlines, classic replacement profile

Aluminum windows

Double-Hung Windows

A double-hung window has two sashes stacked in one frame that slide vertically, so you can open the top, the bottom, or both for balanced airflow. Crateworks builds double-hung windows in thermally-broken aluminum for renovation and replacement projects, sized to your opening.

Double-Hung Windows spec into Farmhouse, and Foundry builds. Multi-tag products are shown with the same canonical URL across every look they appear in.

Common questions

A double-hung window has two sashes in a single frame that both slide up and down. Opening the top sash and the bottom sash at once lets warm air out the top while cooler air comes in the bottom, which is why double-hung is a classic ventilation design.
Aluminum keeps the frame and the meeting rail slim, so a double-hung in aluminum shows more glass than the same window in a bulkier material, and it will not rot or warp. That suits a replacement where you want the traditional double-hung action with a cleaner, longer-lasting frame.
This configuration is positioned for renovation and replacement projects while we close out additional certification. The thermally-broken aluminum casement, tilt-turn, fixed-picture, awning, and arc-top configurations are NFRC certified today; we are sequencing the rest of the line through the same path. Tell us your project and we will confirm what we can document before you commit.
