30×60 Window

30×60 Window: Types, Materials & Replacement Guide

A 30×60 window measures 30 inches wide by 60 inches tall — a standard dimension for primary living room and bedroom windows in North American single-family homes, townhouses, and multi-family buildings. The recommended rough opening for a 30×60 window is 30½ × 60½ inches, providing standard ¼-inch clearance per side for shimming and weatherproofing during installation.

The 30×60 dimension — corresponding to the industry code designation “3060” — is one of the most common double hung window sizes in North American residential construction and is referenced consistently across window manufacturer catalogues from Pella, Milgard, and MI Windows as a primary stocked size. Despite being a catalogue size, availability in specific configurations and frame materials remains limited at the retail level. Hotian manufactures the full range of configurations in both vinyl and aluminum as a standard made-to-order product.

30×60 Window Types Available

Single Hung 30×60 Window

The single hung in 30×60 is a standard replacement choice for living room and bedroom windows in single-family homes. Lower sash tilts in for interior cleaning. Low-E insulated glass and dual weatherstripping available. White vinyl and powder-coated aluminum frames.

Double Hung 30×60 Window

The double hung is the most commonly specified 30×60 window type for primary living spaces in traditional and transitional residential styles. Both sashes operate independently and tilt in for easy cleaning — providing flexible ventilation control and full cleaning access without exterior ladder access. The preferred replacement type for colonial, craftsman, and traditional-style homes.

Casement 30×60 Window

A tall outward-opening casement in 30×60 provides maximum ventilation and clean interior sightlines. Multi-point locking hardware standard. Suited to living rooms and dining areas in contemporary, transitional, and modern residential styles where the casement profile is preferred over a hung window.

Sliding 30×60 Window

A two-lite horizontal slider in 30×60 — each lite 15 inches wide — for locations where exterior clearance for a projecting sash is limited. Available in vinyl and aluminum with standard or Low-E glazing.

Fixed / Picture 30×60 Window

A tall fixed picture window for living room and dining area applications where ventilation is provided by adjacent operable windows. Often used in a mulled assembly with casement sidelites or operable neighbors.
