Windows for 24" OC framing? How come they're so hard to find?

I have a shed that was built with 24" OC framing from back in the 40's that I want to add windows to without doing a bunch of reframing, but all the off the shelf vinyl windows from the big box stores are needing a 23 1/2 to 24" rough opening. I've seen some aluminum shed windows on Amazon, I was hoping for a decent vinyl window as the shed is going to be a chicken coop and the winters are atrocious here for cold and wind. Does anyone have any better suggestions? I guess worse case, I'll throw in another stud in, put in a header and bottom. Would be less expensive than custom vinyl windows. submitted by /u/J2E1 [link] [comments]
