Casements

Casement Windows

Casement windows are our most versatile window style — any window with a swinging sash falls under the casement family. Traditionally operated with a cranking mechanism at the bottom of the window, casements can also be configured with butt hinges or friction hinges for push-out or in-swing operation. Casements provide excellent ventilation because the entire sash opens, catching breezes and directing airflow into the room.

Operating Options

  • Crank-out with casement locks — swing out only; rotary handle concealed in the frame when closed
  • Butt hinged with fasteners — swing in or out; manual push/pull operation, no crank mechanism
  • Friction hinged with fasteners — swing in or out; holds position at any angle without staying arms
  • In-swing casements — hinged on the interior so the sash swings inward; ideal where exterior clearance is limited or where exterior screens or shutters are desired

Locking Mechanism & Hardware

Crank-out casements can be locked in many different ways, including multipoint locking systems that secure the sash at multiple points along the frame. Push-out and in-swing configurations provide different options for hardware — from simple lever locks to surface-mounted bolts and shoot bolts — depending on the swing direction and sash size. Each operating type also offers different screen options: push-out and in-swing windows can accept interior or exterior screens depending on the swing direction.

Pre-Hung & Ready to Install

Casement windows come prefit in frames with hardware installed. All sashes are machined for hinges and necessary mechanisms, installed in the frames, and tested for smooth operation before shipment. Weatherstripping is included where necessary. Frames come with a sloped sill for water management. Exterior moulding is applied if requested.

Wood Species & Construction

Built from solid lumber in your specified species — Douglas fir, clear pine, mahogany, white oak, and others. Mortise and tenon joinery throughout. Each sash is sized to your opening.

Glass & Divided Lites

Insulated glass with Low-E for Title 24, or single-pane for historic work. True divided lite (TDL) or simulated divided lite (SDL) in any muntin pattern.

Matching Existing Windows

For additions and restorations, we can replicate existing casement profiles, hinge configuration, and muntin patterns — even if the original manufacturer is no longer in business.
