80. Windows The window above is a double-hung window, that is because it has two overlapping sashes that slide vertically in tracks. A hopper window is a single style window similar to a casement window in that they both are hinged for opening, rather than slide open. A hopper window is hinged on the bottom and opens inward from the top. Though a hopper window can come in a variety of sizes, the hopper window is a common style window in small areas and openings, such as basements and bathrooms.
