Pass-Through Windows

Entertain more easily by connecting your outdoor deck, pool or patio to the inside of your home with a pass-through window. The space-saving designs serve as an important access point from one space to another. These multi-functional windows occupy less space than an open door but still offer ample convenience, ventilation and natural light.

Traditional and contemporary panel designs fit any architectural style
Folding or sliding operation maximizes clear opening
A flush sill creates a seamless transition between indoors and out
Meet performance requirements with thermally controlled panels, performance sills or triple-pane glass
