Awning window installation is an excellent choice when you want superior ventilation and weather protection, even during rain. An awning window is top-hinged and crank-operated, opening outward from the bottom, giving you precise airflow control and the ability to ventilate without water entering your home. Awning windows are ideal for basements, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and high wall areas where other window styles are impractical. Because the sash closes securely and compresses the weatherstripping, an awning window is often selected for improved air tightness, weather resistance, and comfort, especially in windy, cold weather.
Top-hinged, crank-operated design opens outward from the bottom
Provide excellent ventilation and weather protection
Sealed tightly to maximize energy efficiency and noise reduction
Awning windows are designed with a top hinge and a convenient crank handle, allowing them to swing outward from the bottom to the left or right. Their functional design makes them an ideal choice for spaces where traditional operating styles won’t work, particularly basements, bathrooms, and utility areas. These windows are low-maintenance and easy to clean. Equipped with full fibreglass push-down screens, they effectively keep insects and debris out while being simple to remove when needed. Maximize the potential of awning windows by improving air circulation in basements, bathrooms, and hard-to-reach areas. With professional awning window installation, you can achieve better ventilation, reduce moisture issues, and enhance comfort throughout your home. Explore your options today with Fortena!

I had 4 windows installed (3 br 1 kitchen) 1 living room and a bathroom slider as well as a very large patio door(slider) in June 2024 and I was very pleased with the products and most definitely with the installation and service from Alex and his assistant. All work was performed in one day but Alex had to return a few days later as 1 of the bedroom windows extensions was not the right size so he removed it and returned with a new extension and installed it. His work and cleanliness are outstanding and he is an exceptional person.

Local Roots in Saint-Constant, Serving Greater Montreal
Based in Saint-Constant, Fortena serves homeowners and property managers across Greater Montreal’s South Shore and all Montreal neighbourhoods, including Saint-Constant, La Prairie, Candiac, Brossard, Longueuil, Boucherville, Saint-Lambert, Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville, and Chambly. We tailor every window replacement and door installation to the realities of each area. Awning window installations are particularly popular in older Montreal homes where basement ventilation is essential, and in modern properties requiring moisture control in bathrooms and utility areas. In family-focused communities like Saint-Constant, Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville, Boucherville, Candiac, and La Prairie, our work often involves full retrofits for bungalows, split-levels, and newer two-storey homes, with energy-efficient PVC windows & doors systems and tight, clean finishing. In denser markets like Brossard and Longueuil, we frequently coordinate installs for townhouses, condos, and multi-plexes, with precise measurement, access planning, and consistent results across units..
