Casement windows are an excellent choice for your home, primarily because of their aesthetic appeal and high energy efficiency. Casement windows open outward on hinges at the top and sides. They are sometimes referred to as crank windows, due to their mechanical mechanism. Typically, a friction hinge holds the window open. American-made casement windows are made by Simonton, and have a very tight seal, resulting in reduced energy costs and noise.

Custom windows are typically more expensive than other window types, but they can add thousands to your home's value. Custom windows can also boost energy efficiency and qualify for rebates and tax credits. Standard budget window products can increase your power bill, and triple-pane glass can reduce your heating and cooling bills by as much as 3%. By utilizing casement windows, you'll be able to reap financial rewards that will last for decades.
