Casement Windows

Casement windows are a popular choice for window replacements in many homes. They are hinged at the side and swing outwards. Casement windows are easy to open and close since most of them come with a hand crank.

Casement Windows in the Home

Where should I install casement windows in my home? Casement windows are the perfect choice for a room with a view since they look like picture windows and do not have a rail, like double hung or sliding windows. Unlike picture windows, these can be opened with the crank to enjoy the fresh air outdoors. Additionally, casement windows may also be the perfect option for hard to reach places, such as over the kitchen sink or other appliances.

Added Security with Casement Windows

In addition to ease of use, the hand crank also serves as the window lock, which adds extra security to the windows. Casement windows are one of the most secure window options since the lock is attached to the window frame, which can give your family peace of mind. As an added bonus, casement windows are the second most weathertight window, behind picture windows, since the casement's window seal directly aligns with the casement sash. This means extra savings on energy costs.

Customization in Casement Windows

Depending on your personal style, casement windows can be customized to fit any room and can be fitted with a grille. Grilles are a good way to add more visual interest to the space, depending on the look you are trying to achieve. In addition to grilles, casement windows come in a variety of materials and colors, with more options in customizing the window combinations.
