Building code compliance is essential for every egress installation. We handle all permitting and follow local and national codes so your home is safe—and up to date.
 - Minimum Size Requirements
Egress windows must meet size minimums for width, height, and net opening to allow a full-grown adult to exit easily.
 - Accessibility
The window must open without keys or tools and be free of obstructions such as furniture or decorations.
 - Location and Placement
Most codes require egress windows in sleeping rooms and other habitable basement spaces. Strategic placement ensures fast, effective escape routes.
 - Window Wells
Below-grade installations require properly sized and drained wells to allow for exit and prevent water issues. We ensure correct fit and drainage.
 - Operability
The window must be simple to open from inside and must function smoothly in an emergency.
 - Clearance and Accessibility
There must be adequate space inside and outside the window for full operation and unimpeded exit.
