Awnings and Canopies Buying Guide

Standing at the door fumbling for your keys can be annoying, and never so much so as when it is raining on you. If a door on your house is unprotected by a porch or other covering, consider installing an awning or canopy to provide some shelter. Awnings also make great window-toppers, protecting furniture from the suns' damaging rays and making interior cooling more effective. Lowe's is happy to provide this information as a service to you.

Choosing Storm and Utility Windows

Storm windows are an economical, easy way to increase the efficiency of older, single-pane windows. They reduce the flow of outside air into your home. And, the airspace between the storm window and your existing window works as an added insulation factor.

Utility windows are a low-cost alternative to using regular house windows in areas that do not necessarily require them. Lowe's is happy to provide this information as a service to you.
