modern window is piece of door

that window is a piece of modern modular construction similar to a door. This simply means that it is only anchored in the wall of a structure rather than built into it piece by piece. If you have it professionally installed or create your own, the window has some key elements you need to know.

The window frame usually come in the form of a rectangle. The outer shell of the celebration of the rectangle together is known as the frame. This is similar to what one finds a framework for the work of art. The various parts of the structure have their own names - the threshold and jambs.

Sill - The threshold seems to indicate the maximum word, but it is not. When it comes to Windows, the threshold is the horizontal bottom of the image.

Guts - When you install the window, you will notice a very different problem. There will be a gap between the window frame and wall. Casings that are used to cover and seal this area. The guts are essentially extensions in the frames that fill the gap.


Girdle - The window glass would be called "glass", right? Well, no. It is known as a girdle. A window with a section of the upper and lower window with two sashes.

Jambs - The jambs are the top and two vertical sides of the frame. For those who like to be overly technical, the top of the window frame is called the head jamb. The vertical sides are called jambs of the leg.


This represents the basic elements of a traditional house window. That said, there are many different styles of windows these days that the language extends far beyond these basic elements. Unless you get a job in the window industry will never learn them all. As painful as it is, this is an area where you want to seek help. Remember, the change from one type of window to another tends to be expensive, complicated issue. Do it right the first time, you can.
