Pocket Vs. Full-frame Window Replacement
There are two possible approaches for window replacement: pocket or full-frame installation. Full-frame is more or less what it sounds like—the frame, glass, and sash are completely removed and a whole new package is installed. With pocket replacement, on the other hand, only the glass panes and sashes are taken out while the frame remains in place, and new sashes and panes are put in.
When it comes to window replacement, Oklahoma City professionals will tell you that pocket and full-frame installations both have their own pros and cons to consider. Pocket replacement is generally less expensive and easier to install than a full-frame replacement, but on the downside, frame and sash components reduce the amount of visible glass overall which can downsize the height and width of the pane by as much as two or three inches. Understandably, many homeowners aren't thrilled with the idea of smaller panes. Another point of consideration is that there are many choices available for full-frame installation, but far fewer choices for pocket units. That means a full frame will be a better option if you want to change up your style.
