Windows From Outside Before
These windows allow for light but they are not large enough for an adult to easily escape.
Window 1 Before
This window is not providing a lot of light for this area. It would also be hard to exit in an emergency.
Window 2 Before Install
To be up to code for basement bedrooms the window in the room must be large enough an adult could easily escape through it. By upgrading this window the family is increasing their safety and the value of their home.
Egress Window 1
This window is much larger, allowing more light and safety for the area. Maintaining the landscaping around the window will also increase its potential.
Egress Window 2
Replacing the second window with an egress window was a smart choice for this family since the windows are in separate rooms.
Window from Inside
This window is much brighter. The egress windows have hinges on the side to open fully in an emergency.
