Trust the Egress Window Experts
For basements, egress windows must be at least 36 inches (but that can vary slightly) in width and height and have a fully functioning opening. If a basement window is more than 44 inches from the ground, a ladder or steps at least 12 inches wide must be present. Basement egress windows must also include window wells that provide enough clearance to allow escape.
