Egress Windows
BE CAREFUL… not all egress windows are equal in their construction and safety.
What is an egress window?
E-GRESS a means or place of going out, an exit.
An egress window is a window that is large enough to allow for escape or entry in the case of an emergency. Egress windows are required to be installed when finishing a basement or adding a sleeping room to the basement.
There are codes and certain requirements that need to be met in order to have a compliant egress window, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice beauty!
B.A.M! Basements and Masons of Des Moines offers a beautiful egress window system that will transform your basement into a bright, light-filled living space without compromising the safety of your family.
When is the best time to have an egress window installed?
Safest Egress Window Period.
Whether you need a repair, replacement, or trying to increase the efficiency of your home. Let’s be honest – during a fire, stairs could be blocked or damaged.
To avoid such dangerous situations, the International Residential Code requires a safe means of egress in all basements used partially or entirely as a living space.
Our window opens inward… and this is critical to your family’s safety.
If you are finishing your basement, the best time to have your egress window installed is before the other work is completed.
It should be one of the first things that is installed.
