Window & Door Terms

As you investigate new or replacement windows for your commercial or residential property you may run into terms you don't understand. For example: rough opening. A rough opening is the opening in the wall that the window or door fits into. Usually the rough opening needs to be 1/2 inch larger (in both width and height) than the frame.
