Denver Casement Windows
Why Choose Casement Windows?
Casement windows are hinged windows and open vertically, unlike the awning windows that open out from the top. Because of this, these windows are ideal for moisture-prone rooms. These types of windows have a clean and elegant look to them. They can come in several configurations. Choose from a colonial-style grille, a grille-less look, and more to complete that perfect expression for your home. Maybe you would rather to with two casement windows side-by-side for that French door look. Or perhaps you would like to place them in conjunction with a picture window for a timeless look. The options are endless.
Another advantage to casement windows is the security they provide. Compared to other windows, it is harder to break into a casement window. Although no window is foolproof, it will be more difficult for an intruder to break the glass and turn the crank as opposed to breaking the glass and opening the latch of a double-hung window.
Casement windows are also low maintenance. All that is needed is to clean the sashes and windowpane. They are also fade, crack, and chip-resistant so you do not have to worry about repairing or replacing the sashes.
Are Your Casement Windows Windows Energy-Efficient?
Casement windows are the most energy-efficient windows that are meant to be opened. The only window that is more efficient than casement windows are picture windows, but picture windows are not meant to be opened.
The sashes of casement windows press into the frame when the window is closed, creating a tight seal on all four sides. The tighter the window is closed, the better the seal. When opened, these windows will provide all the needed ventilation you want for your home.
