Why Choose Casement Windows
Simple & Sleek
Elegant hardware offers smooth, easy operation with a handle that can be nested neatly away to maintain a sleek appearance.
Convenience
Standard hinge hardware or corner-pivot hinge hardware can be selected to allow for easy cleaning.
Comfort
Casement windows offer the most ventilation of all windows when fully open. These windows also feature lever locks at multiple points for a weather tight seal and enhanced security.
Elegance
The mortise-and frame and sash construction offer a hand-crafted look that is both traditional and beautiful.
Versatility
Casement windows are a solution for areas of your home where a reach is required, such as above counters or cabinets. Additionally, you can opt for a custom grille pattern to mimic that of double-hung windows, making casement windows a suitable option for restoration and renovation projects where historic accuracy is important.
One thing to consider is that casement windows have a potential to be susceptible to damage in areas with high winds or frequent storms due to the wind catching the window and slamming it shut. This could cause damage to the frame or glass.
