RockWell Window Well: The Emergency Egress

Finishing your basement is a great way to make the most out of the space in your home, but now that the space is considered habitable, an emergency egress will likely now be required by building codes. An egress in a basement consists of a window large enough to allow a safe exit in case of an emergency and a well with steps or a ladder for easy escape.

The RockWell Window Well

When looking for a trustworthy egress, you can look first at the RockWell Window Well. They are a one-piece, rigid construction that won’t allow water to leak through and are strong enough to hold back the heavy earth. RockWell wells are also UV stable, rust and rot proof, as well as stand up to extreme hot or cold temperatures, making them a reliable option for your family’s safety.

The Look

To create a natural appearance, the RockWell design was based off the real look of stone. They also have built in steps for easy exit if needed and a well cover to keep out debris and to prevent your family from accidentally falling in!

Natural Light

Not only does the RockWell Window Well satisfy building codes and create a safe escape, but it also allows natural light into the basement, a place known for being quite dark! The extra light makes your finished basement bedroom or living area into a bright and beautiful space.
