Window grids help to add symmetry and decorative appeal to windows. With numerous architectural styles, it can be challenging to determine which one best suits your home.
As an experienced window replacement company, we installed windows of all types for customers. This article will compare the most popular window grid styles and their features.
Colonial Grid Windows
A window with a colonial grid has an assembly of small glass panes that make up the structure. This is a window style you will commonly see in traditional American home styles.
The small glass panes are typically segmented in groups of 6-12 for most window types. When paired with a home that's constructed of brick or has wood siding, it will complement the exterior.
Diamond Grid Windows
A diamond grid is a decorative window style that provides a Victorian appearance to your property. This grid type works well for window styles like the following:
- Double-Hung Windows
- Picture Windows
- Casement Windows
Prairie Grid Windows
If you prefer an unobstructed view through your windows, the prairie grid is a good choice. The prairie grid provides a large portion of the glass uninterrupted for your window.
The prairie grid is a suitable choice for many home styles, but the most common is the Prairie-style home. Additionally, the most common window type used for this grid is casement windows.
Contoured Profile Grille
Along with a traditional grid design, a contoured grille helps add style to the windows. The contoured grille has detailing that helps complement a traditional window grid like a colonial or farmhouse window.
Additionally, the grooves help to add a traditional look to your home. If you are looking to recreate an old-fashioned look for your property's windows, this is the preferred option.
Flat Profile Grille
Flat profile grilles provide a more sleek and modern appearance for your home's windows. Without the contours, this minimalistic window grille style is suitable for windows of all types.
From diamond grid to prairie grid windows, the flat profile will smoothly segment the glass panes. Flat profile grilles can also be added in various colors, helping to complement the window frame color.
