The Window is a glazed frame set into a wall. In a base it gives light, vision and a way in or out.

It comes as a Chrome Window, a Slider Window, a Tiled Window, a White Tiled Window, a White Window and a Wooden Window. All of them work the same way. A spare window is the fix for a broken pane in a safehouse wall.

How to Use Window


A window lets survivors see, shoot and climb through a wall. Any open or smashed window can be climbed through. Zombies can climb through too.

An unbarricaded window can fall to a zombie in as little as 20 in-game minutes. Barricade windows with planks or metal to slow a break-in. Metal sheets block vision entirely. Planks cut vision more as more are added. Metal bars keep the view clear.

A broken window makes a loud noise. Smashed glass falls on the floor and stays in the frame. Remove the glass from the frame before climbing through, or risk a cut. That option needs a weapon in hand. Breaking a window with bare hands always causes bleeding.

Climbing out of an upper floor window is dangerous. A Sheet Rope lets a survivor climb down safely.

How to Move Window


Picking up a window needs a Crowbar and Carpentry level 2. Placing it again needs a hammer.

A window can break when picked up. The chance falls as Carpentry rises.

It weighs 10 when packed. A packed window must go into a container or an empty frame.

To replace a broken window, first remove the glass shards. Then pick up the old frame. The old frame is thrown away, so it adds no weight. Then place the new window in the empty spot.

Picking up the Window needs one of these tools. It needs Carpentry level 2.
