Your windows are an important component of your home’s architectural style. Their shape, arrangement, number, and grille pattern all affect your home’s visual appeal. In particular, your grille is distinctive and can mark your home as influenced by or belonging to a certain architectural style.
Renewal by Andersen® of Westchester and Fairfield County discusses four of the patterns we offer.
1. Prairie – This grille pattern is essential for Prairie homes. Its pattern includes two horizontal and two vertical bars per sash, forming 4-inch squares at the corner. Casement windows are advisable for this design because of their large glass area. In particular, casement windows from Renewal by Andersen in CT, are an excellent choice because of their sleek frames and expansive glass area.
2. Modified Prairie – This is another option for Prairie-style homes. The pattern includes two vertical bars and one horizontal bar for each sash. The reduced number of square panes creates a larger view area and a simpler appearance. As the expert in replacement windows in Connecticut, we recommend using this grille design on windows overlooking beautiful views.
3. Colonial – This grille pattern is perfect for Colonial and Cape Cod-style homes. You can easily recognize it by its muntins dividing six individual panes of glass in both the bottom and top panels of the windows. This creates a symmetrical and appealing appearance. If you aim for this pattern, use double-hung windows for your replacement windows in CT. Their classic appearance looks great on Colonial and Cape Cod-style homes.
