More Details On Casement Windows

As we discussed in the last blog post – “What are Casement Windows?” – casement windows are single sash windows hinged at the side, with a hand crank that allows for simple opening. There are two kinds of casement windows: out swing and in swing.

Out swing casement windows: traditional out swing casement windows open towards your home’s exterior. People use out swing casement windows for many reasons, including:

Energy efficiency

Security purposes

Thermal performance

Superior ventilation

Appearance

In swing casement windows: French style in swing casement windows are exactly like traditional (out swing) casement windows, except they open inwards, just as the name suggests! They offer all the same benefits out swing casement windows do – great ventilation, energy efficiency, good security, etc. In swing casement windows may even be easier to clean than out swing windows because even when they’re open, they’re easy to reach!

Great company that backs their product. We built a new house and Quality Window & Doors was the subcontractor for our Weathershield windows and doors. Wayne and Noe came out to service a broken handle on our 16' Weathershield sliding door. We were technically beyond the warranty period but they repaired the handle for free. They also took the time to go around and adjust our other exterior doors to make sure they were well aligned now that the house had settled a bit. Wayne was a real expert and got all the doors adjusted and working perfectly!

We are thrilled with our new windows and door! Excellent job from estimate to completion! The install team was fantastic and I loved that the lead installer was also present during the initial measurement phase. It took a few months for the windows to arrive so it was really nice to see a familiar face for the install and he knew exactly what to do! Highly recommend!!
