Window Style Series: Get to Know Casement Windows

Homecraft® Inc. takes pride in offering a range of window styles that suit different needs and budget. One of the most popular options that we offer today is casement window. In this window style series, we look at what makes casements so special.

Open Wide

Perhaps the most recognized feature of a casement window would be the fact that it fully opens wide. This is also what’s considered to be its foremost benefit. The very purpose of windows is for it to be wide open to let in some breeze, while letting out trapped, hot air. Although other types like double-hung windows can also carry out this function, it is not in the same capacity since the upper half is the only one opened, and horizontally at that.

So Secure

The next advantage would be the added security it provides for the home. These replacement windows in Wilmington, DE, have hooks for latches, which are integrated into the frame. This makes it much more difficult to pry open from outside, compared with the sash lock screws featured in double-hung windows.

Beautiful Inside and Out

When it comes to aesthetic appeal, casement windows can more than hold their own. Those looking for a more quaint and rustic vibe in their home design can choose casement windows. Add a row of potted plants just underneath the window, and you have a quintessential little house by the prairie effect.
