What Are Strut Windows?

Strut windows are top-hinged windows that open outward with the assistance of gas springs, providing smooth, controlled operation and creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

These windows are ideal for areas where creating a sense of openness is essential. From residential kitchen pass-throughs to commercial serving areas, strut windows add a modern, minimalist touch that complements a variety of architectural styles.
