Windows do far more than bring in light — they influence your home’s comfort, energy efficiency, and overall appeal. Whether you’re building a new home or planning a replacement, choosing the right window style can make a lasting difference.
At BM Windows & Doors, we offer a wide variety of high-quality windows across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, each designed to enhance comfort, efficiency, and beauty. Here’s a guide to the most popular window types and their key benefits.
Awning Windows

Benefits:
- Excellent ventilation even during light rain.
- Great for bathrooms, basements, and above sinks.

Bay and Bow Windows
Bay and bow windows extend outward from your home’s exterior, creating additional interior space and panoramic views.
Benefits:
- Bring in abundant natural light.
- Add architectural character and curb appeal.
