What is a fixed window?

A fixed window does not open. With no sash movement or operating hardware, it delivers the slimmest sightlines and the largest possible area of glass, and it can be made in almost any shape, including arches, circles, triangles, and trapezoids. Fixed units are used wherever daylight and a view matter but ventilation is handled elsewhere.
