Awning Windows

Awning Windows That Stay Open in Philippine Rain

The only window type that works in the rain. The outward-swinging sash creates a natural canopy that deflects rainwater away from the opening — leaving your room ventilated even in a downpour.

Key Features

Awning windows are uniquely suited to the Philippine climate — ventilate through tropical showers without closing the window.

01

Rain-Open Operation

The outward-swinging sash acts as a natural canopy — deflecting rainwater away from the opening while maintaining airflow.

02

Continuous Ventilation

No need to rush to close windows every time it rains. Awning windows keep your space ventilated 24 hours a day.

03

Inherently Secure

The sash swings outward and cannot be pushed open from outside. Cam-handle locking provides a tight seal.

04

Typhoon-Rated

Series 50 heavy-duty aluminum with 4-bar stainless steel friction stays rated for wind load.

05

Perfect for High Windows

Friction stays hold the sash at any angle without a prop — ideal for windows above counters or out of reach.

06

Superior Weather Seal

Double EPDM rubber compression gaskets around the full perimeter create a weather-tight seal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about awning windows in the Philippines.

Can awning windows be left open during rain?

+

Yes — this is the defining advantage of an awning window. The sash opens outward and upward, creating an overhang that deflects rain away from the opening. In normal tropical rainfall conditions, you can leave awning windows open without water entering. We recommend closing during typhoon conditions with wind-driven rain.

Are awning windows suitable for typhoon conditions?

+

Yes, when properly specified and installed. We use Series 50 heavy-duty profiles with 1.4mm to 1.6mm gauge aluminum, 4-bar stainless steel friction stays rated for wind load, and double EPDM rubber gaskets to maintain the seal under pressure. The sash locks tight with cam handles.

What is the maximum size for an awning window?

+

For single-sash awning windows, the practical maximum is approximately 1200mm wide x 600mm tall. Larger openings require fixed glass combined with a top or bottom awning vent panel. We design combination configurations to maximize both ventilation and glass area.

Can I combine an awning window with a fixed glass panel?

+

Yes — this is the most common configuration in Philippine homes. A fixed glass panel provides unobstructed views while the awning vent panel at the top or bottom provides ventilation and can remain open in light rain. We fabricate these as single-frame combination units.
