Casement windows are hinged on the side and open outward to the left or right with the turn of a crank handle. The large glass area provides unobstructed views, while the strong hinge system supports the open sash for maximum ventilation. Casement windows are ideal for hard-to-reach areas, like over a kitchen sink or countertop. Their streamlined design suits vertical spaces and complements both modern and classic homes.
The hinged design of casement windows makes it easier to meet egress requirements with a smaller-sized window.
The multi-point locking system tightly seals the sash, providing excellent resistance to air infiltration and increased energy efficiency and security.
Nesting crank handles easily crank open the window and fold away, so they won’t interfere with window treatments.
