Awning impact windows.
Hinged at the top, cranking outward from the bottom — fresh air even during a Miami rain shower, and laminated hurricane glass sealed tight the moment you close it.
Ventilation that works in the rain.
An awning window hinges at the top and cranks out from the bottom, so the open sash shelters the opening like a small roof — air keeps moving while a passing shower rolls off the glass. That makes it the go-to style for high wall placements, over kitchen sinks and counters, and anywhere you want privacy with airflow. Paired with picture windows, awnings add ventilation without interrupting the view.
When it closes, the crank pulls the sash into a compression seal — one of the tightest seals of any operating window — and because ours come straight from our family's V&V factory, you skip the dealer markup entirely.

Series 410 awning: what the NOA certifies.
The V&V Series 410 project-out awning shares its frame with the Series 400 casement and Series 450 fixed, so they combine cleanly in one wall. Every opening is checked against these limits at the free measure; where a wall needs more than the guaranteed rating, we specify the upgraded glass and anchoring the approval allows.

Awning window questions, answered.
A window hinged at the top that cranks outward from the bottom — the open sash forms a small awning over the opening. Ours are laminated impact glass in hurricane-rated frames, straight from our family's V&V factory.
That's their signature trick: because the sash tilts out and over the opening, a typical afternoon shower rolls off the glass while air keeps moving — genuinely useful in a Miami summer.
Yes. Laminated impact glass in a rated frame with a Miami-Dade NOA for the high-velocity hurricane zone — no shutters or plywood needed. Close and lock, and the compression seal is storm-tight.
High on walls for privacy with airflow, over kitchen sinks and counters where a sliding sash is hard to reach, and paired with picture windows for ventilation without breaking the view.
