Can casement windows be repaired?
Minor repairs like broken hinges or faulty cranks can be fixed without needing to replace the entire window.
This makes them a durable and long-lasting option for homeowners looking for a low-maintenance glazing solution.
Do casement windows open in or out?
The majority of casement windows open outwards, however, there are inward-opening casement windows available on the market. These are less common in traditional household properties, though.
What is the difference between a casement window and a regular window?
A casement window opens outwards, similarly to a door opening. Regular windows – whether that’s double-hung or sliding, typically open vertically or horizontally. As a result, they can offer greater ventilation when compared to some traditional windows because of the bigger openings that become available.
