WHAT ARE SPECIALTY SHAPE WINDOWS
Specialty shape windows are fixed, non-operable windows manufactured in unique shapes to complement architectural design. Common shapes include half-round, full round, eyebrow, triangle, trapezoid, and custom geometric designs.
​
These windows are typically used as accent features rather than primary sources of ventilation.
