Awning & Hopper windows feature window sash attached to the frame by one or more hinges and are hinged on the top or bottom of the frame and swing outward or inward.

I have been wanting a new front door since the day we bought our house. Scott made the process painless and easy! He came over to my house and helped me pick out everything from the glass to the lock to ensure the door would be exactly what I was looking for! The door has completely changed the look of my house and I absolutely love it! I would highly suggest Auburn Corporation to anyone looking to buy a new front door!

I used Auburn a few years ago and all went well. I called them for my new building to replace the front windows. I placed the order the beginning of April for delivery end of May. Checked in with the sales rep mid May - was told all was on schedule. End of May comes and he tells me manufacturer is running 3 weeks behind and order is delayed until June 21. June 21 he calls at 8 am to say the windows didn't arrive and he was checking to find out where they are.
Two days later I had to call him for an update. Response was that they needed an additional 4 weeks to complete my order - new delivery July 22. I now had to cancel the city inspection and put renting my apts off for another month due to the delay. July 21 comes and I get a voice mail that the manufacturer did not ship the windows as expected and new delivery is now July 29.
Something doesn't smell right - so I call the manufacturer. They tell me my order wasn't placed until June 11 - 8 weeks after I placed the order with Auburn. All the delivery dates I was given were complete lies. Told directly to me! Today is July 30 - no windows - missing the July 29 delivery they had assured me was correct. Now have been given 4 delivery dates - all completely bogus.
It has now been 16 weeks since I placed the order and I still have no windows. Latest excuse is that the manufacturer's delivery truck broke down and they don't know when they will be able to deliver my windows. I have had to cancel two city inspections and lost two months of rent, as I cannot rent the units without the new windows. I am losing money monthly and stuck with a $8000 window order that appears it will never arrive! Horrible customer service and follow through.
I have not had one person from Auburn contact me to discuss how they are going to rectify this situation. I am stuck with two apartments I cannot rent and a consistent loss of rent. Beware if you decide to use this company. From where I sit, it appears the customer is an inconvenience rather than an asset

Just had Auburn out to replace our first floor windows. We used them 6 years prior on our second floor and liked them so much we used them again. Scott came out and gave us some great ideas and recommendations and left all the decisions up to us. Did not feel like we were being pushed into anything. Frank, the installer, did an outstanding job and we couldn't be happier. Neighbors have all commented on the amazing difference it has made in our house. After it was all done, we did notice a small chip on a corner of the screen. Got a hold of Scott and already has a new one on the way. Can't say enough about our experience.

Last fall I spent countless time with staff at a "Home Store" trying to order replacement doors and windows. I finally got smart and found Auburn (Marvin), and had 2 slider doors, 1 french door and 1 window ordered and installed. Scott was knowledgeable and efficient. The install went Great, on time, neat and all done in 1 day. I would definitely recommend Auburn.

We recently replaced our windows and front door. We are very happy with the quality and look of the Marvin windows and ThermaTru front door. Scott was great paying attention to details and helping us get the look we wanted. Frank and the his crew of installers were very professional and did a wonderful job! Would definitely recommend!

I must say I set out to research Window and Door installation companies and I came across Auburn. I could not be more pleased with the quality products and workmanship Auburn's professional staff. Eric their product consultant was able provide information on their very product line. We chose the Marvin window product and the Provia door products. We could not be more pleased.
We thank Eric and Bryan the installer for the beautiful job on our windows and doors. Thank you everyone at Auburn. They are truly top-notch professionals. I highly recommend Auburn Door and Window.

We are very happy with this company from start to finish. Scott came out, wasn't pushy, and helped us decide which windows would be best for us. He even gave us some design ideas! The team that installed the windows were professional, worked hard, and cleaned up when they were through each day. It was a pleasure having them in our home. Jason stained the windows.
He was very helpful in choosing the color stain and even did some mixing to get it just right. He also lightly sanded and put a coat of polyurethane on a bathroom door that wasn't finished properly by another company. We will definitely call Auburn again!

Be aware that Auburn only SELLS the windows. You pay another guy to install the windows and someone else to finish the trim! If something goes wrong you are SOL! Never again! There are much better companies that will stand behind the entire job. Update! I had Window and Door Superstore of Oak Forest install new windows in another area of my home. I mentioned that the Marvin window I bought from Auburn seemed drafty.
We removed the trim around the window and found out the installer had not fully insulated it! Another good reason to choose a company that sells, installs and finishes the windows. Auburn does NOT do that.

I have been working with Scott at Auburn for a few years and they are the best. Scott is the best window designer in the business and he redesigned my windows throughout my house. They are just awesome! Scott cares so much about his customers and Auburn is a company of quality. They have the best installers in Frank and Chuck who get the job done right the first time.
My experience with Auburn has been nothing short of extraordinary and I would highly recommend them to anyone needing new windows and doors and values honesty and integrity in a company. Go Auburn and you won't be sorry!
