Upgrade Your Living Space with OKNA Windows
South Carolina's coastal climate is beautiful and relentless. Between the salt air, summer storms, and humidity that seems to seep into everything, your windows take a beating that most products simply aren't built to handle. If your current windows are letting in drafts, trapping moisture, or making your HVAC system work overtime, it's not just an inconvenience. It's a problem that compounds over time.
At Contract Exteriors, we've been helping Lowcountry homeowners solve exactly that problem since 2009, and when it comes to high-moisture spaces, few solutions perform better than a properly installed OKNA awning window.

Why Awning Windows Work So Well in the Lowcountry
Awning windows are hinged at the top and open outward from the bottom, which means you get fresh air circulation even when it's raining, and in coastal South Carolina, that matters. Whether you're ventilating a kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, or any space where humidity tends to linger, awning windows are built for the job.
OKNA builds its awning windows specifically for climates like ours. Multi-chambered frames, sealed double- or triple-pane glass, and corrosion-resistant hardware aren't optional upgrades; they're standard. That's why we stand behind them.
Key advantages for South Carolina homeowners include:
Leak-Resistant Construction: Weatherproof sashes and secure hardware keep driving rain and coastal wind where they belong: outside.
Energy Efficiency: Insulated, low-conductivity glass helps manage interior temperatures and reduce utility costs in South Carolina's high-heat seasons.
Ventilation Without Compromise: Open them during a light rain and still get the airflow you need without worrying about water intrusion.
Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: Salt air is tough on metal; OKNA's hardware is built to outlast it.
Low Maintenance: Clean lines, durable finishes, and no warping mean less upkeep throughout the window's life.
Workmanship You Can Count On: Every installation comes with our seven-year workmanship warranty, plus OKNA's manufacturer warranty.
Customization Options for OKNA Awning Windows
Your windows shouldn't look like they came off an assembly line. OKNA awning windows are made to order with options that let you tailor both function and appearance, such as:
Frame Colors: These windows come in a range of interior and exterior finishes to complement both classic lowcountry architecture and more contemporary designs.
Hardware Finishes: Choose from modern matte, classic tones, or metallic options to coordinate with your home's details.
Glass Packages: Upgrade to acoustic glass, enhanced privacy glass, or added insulation for increased storm and energy performance.
If you're also exploring other window styles for your home, we install the full OKNA lineup, including casement, double-hung, bay, and bow windows.

Outstanding Reviews
Brooks was my contractor on the project. He was awesome! He was there with me every step of the way! Eugenia was very helpful in the office and assisted me in getting the HOA approval. Jason explained the warranty process and even brought me a cake!
Everyone we came in contact with was very cooperative and easy to work with. It was a pleasant experience from the first online chat. They listened to us and helped solve any issues we were concerned about
Wow, this company goes above and beyond. From the very first reach out to the very last interaction once the job was completed. Everything was done first class. The quality of work, the constant communication and level of service was like nothing I’ve ever experienced with any contractor. I priced out a couple different contractors compared to contractor exteriors and I will tell you I would have paid more just to have this experience with them. I had Jonathan as my project manager and he was exceptional.
Very happy with our new Timbetech front porch deck and steps with AZEK facia and risers. Everyone at CE was responsive and very professional explaining every step in detail! We have several homeowners in our community who have already asked for contact info info. Jonathan is a very good project manager and ensured we were satisfied with the quality, cleanliness, and appearance of our new front porch! Thank you!
In choosing a company to replace our deck, we researched and decided to use Contract Exteriors. We definitely made the right choice. We are very pleased with the results. Special thanks to Brooks, our Project Manager, who kept us updated and informed everyday.
Contract Exteriors did a great job for me. The entire group was very responsive, and my deck project turned out fantastic. My project, as all projects, had some surprises that were handled professionally and promptly. Randy, Brooks, and the office staff were great throughout the process. They proactively kept me informed on the status of the project. I never had to call twice to get a question answered or ask for an accommodation.
We couldn't be happier with contract exteriors and the job they did. Our beach house looks brand new with the new Hardie board and white trim. EVERYONE was friendly, well mannered, professional, and was always ready to answer any questions that we had. Miguel and his crew did an excellent job. Brooks the project manager was wonderful, and also Chad who helped us from the very beginning, also the girls in the office. We would not hesitate to use them again.
This company did an amazing job on my siding project. From start to finish they were very professional, helpful, and on time. Eugenia clearly communicated the whole process to me before they even started the project and Brooks was always available to answer my questions. He even came and ensured the cleanup was perfect and finished up the exterior lighting. Even after the project was finished this company ensured communicated to ensure everything was perfect. Super pleased. Thank you!
Everything about this group was extremely professional. Renovations can be challenging but they carefully made sure that their products and our original structures fit together seamlessly. We are truly looking forward to our new elegant deck that will be essentially maintenance free for many, many years. We will definitely use this company for future projects.
Matt Kuzdrall made our whole experience of purchasing two new roofs for our buildings at the Children's Recovery Center so easy. Matt was professional and had all the answers to any questions we had. He has followed up since our new roofs have been installed to make sure everything is still great. Matt is awesome and I would recommend him to anyone I know looking for a new roof.
