Living in a Singaporean HDB flat means maximising every square inch, and selecting the right window can significantly impact both form and function.
Whether you’re aiming for improved natural ventilation in the kitchen, a stylish upgrade for the living room, or ensuring compliance with HDB regulations, this guide covers the best window options to elevate your home’s aesthetics and practicality, all while making the most of your limited space.
Ready to find the perfect fit for your needs? Here are some of the top window choices for your HDB flat.
Best Window Ideas for HDB Flat Owners
1. Aluminium Casement Windows
Aluminium casement windows, resembling a door, swing open from the side and are often operated using a crank.
These windows are excellent for enhancing airflow due to their full opening capability, making them easy to operate and ideal for ensuring fresh air circulates throughout bedrooms and living rooms.
Nanyang Aluminium’s range features robust designs with durable window frames that promise style and superior security to provide you with peace of mind alongside aesthetic appeal.
2. Aluminium Sliding Windows
Aluminium sliding windows are an excellent choice for compact spaces as they operate horizontally.
They offer expansive views and a sleek profile as they do not protrude beyond the outer frame, maximising interior space.
Looking for sliding windows for your service yard, balconies, or narrow corridors?
Nanyang Aluminium’s sleek, contemporary models are perfect for this purpose! They blend functionality with modern design aesthetics to enhance any part of your home without sacrificing style.
3. Top-Hung Windows
Top-hung windows are hinged at the top, allowing them to open outward.
They are particularly suited for Singapore’s rainy climate as their design prevents rainwater from entering the home while still allowing for ventilation.
Nanyang Aluminium’s designs focus on robust performance and ease of maintenance, using stainless steel grade components for durability. Choose them for bathrooms and high-rise areas where extra privacy is needed.
4. Louvre Windows
Louvre windows consist of horizontal slats that can be adjusted to open or close. Due to this, they offer precise control over ventilation and light.
This makes them especially useful in kitchens and utility rooms where varying amounts of ventilation are needed.
Nanyang Aluminium provides customisable window options that integrate seamlessly into any architectural style to ensure both functionality and aesthetic harmony. See your options here.
5. Awning Windows
Similar to top-hung windows but generally larger, awning windows provide excellent insulation and resistance to air leakage.
They are particularly effective in service areas or kitchens where controlled ventilation is necessary to manage cooking fumes or humidity.
6. Bay Windows
Bay windows project outward from the main walls of an HDB flat.
They create additional space that can be used for seating or storage, thus enhancing the room with extra light and the illusion of more space.
Choose them for living rooms or master bedrooms to add a luxurious touch.

7. Tilt and Turn Windows
These versatile windows can either tilt inwards at the top for secure ventilation or open fully like a side-hinged door.
This functionality makes them ideal for ground-floor apartments where security is a concern but ventilation is still needed.

8. Fixed Windows
Fixed windows do not open but are designed to offer unobstructed views.
They are best used in parts of the home where ventilation is not a priority but natural light is beneficial, such as hallways or stairwells.

9. Double-Hung Windows
Double-hung windows allow both the upper and lower window panels to move independently, providing flexible ventilation options and easier cleaning.
This window type is ideal for older HDB blocks and HDB resale as these require maintaining traditional aesthetics with functional upgrades.

10. Folding Windows
Folding or accordion windows open by folding back in sections along a track to provide a completely open aperture that maximises airflow and integrates indoor and outdoor spaces.
Ideal for open-concept kitchens or dining areas, these windows facilitate an expansive feel that is perfect for entertaining.
