Full Frame vs Pocket Window Replacement: Choosing the Right Method
What Full Frame and Pocket Replacement Really Mean Full frame window replacement removes the entire existing unit, including the frame, sash, trim, and often any surrounding materials that have been tied into the opening. In a pocket install, the original frame stays, and the new window is built into that existing structure. It may seem like a minor distinction, yet it affects the scope of the job, the amount of trim work, and whether hidden damage gets addressed.
