The finest casement windows for the East Midlands

Casement windows have the opening sash fixed to the frame with one or more hinges. Those hinges can be positioned on either side of the frame, or along the top edge (known as awning windows) and the opening section of the window opens and closes similarly to that of a door. Casement windows can be made from uPVC, aluminium, or timber.

There are several benefits to installing casement windows: they provide excellent airflow and ventilation, they are some of the most secure styles of window available, they have fantastic energy-efficiency ratings, and there a plenty of design styles and a wide range of colours available to match your home. There's a good reason they are the most popular type of window style.

Casement windows are hinged along one edge and open outward while vertical sliding sash windows (often referred to simply as sash windows) slide up and down. Casement windows allow in more light, can be made to fit smaller openings, have superior draught exclusion and security properties, and are simpler in the way they function than vertical sliding sash windows.

Casement windows have a solid, airtight seal on all four sides when the window is closed. This provides excellent resistance to draughts and makes them the most energy-efficient opening windows.

Thanks to their design, casement windows are one of the most difficult window styles for burglars to force an entry. With locking mechanisms and hardware built into the frames, casement windows are almost impossible to open from the outside, making them ideal for security-conscious homeowners.
