Not all windows are meant to be fully functional. But that doesn’t mean you should consider putting nothing but picture windows in your home. If you ever have a house fire or some other serious, potentially life-threatening event, you’ll be grateful to have a window that allows you to make a quick exit. Escape windows installed by NextWave Construction do just that for homeowners here in Maple Park, Illinois and all throughout Chicagoland.
There are plenty of great window styles that work well throughout a home, but many aren’t great for basements. But escape windows, which are also known as egress windows, are perfect for virtually anyone’s finished basement. These windows closely resemble and function like single-hung windows, but the key difference is that these windows also have a latch on one side and can be opened outward like a door. This gives you a large enough opening to fit through without having to crawl through a tight space like a character in a thriller movie.
With a function as important as that of an escape window, you’ll want to be especially sure that the window company you hire can install it perfectly, giving you one less thing to worry about when you need to use it in an emergency. NextWave Construction has you covered. From your initial window replacement consultation to the end of your project, we’ll show you firsthand why so many Chicagoland homeowners have entrusted their escape window installations to us.
