Install Casement Windows by Marvin Canada

If you’re freshening up your living space with a home renovation project, such as updating your kitchen or painting your home’s interior or exterior, this could be the perfect time to consider how your windows and doors fit into the overall plan.

Will you be replacing sheetrock on the walls? And then will you be painting? There’s a ripple effect with home renovation projects, which might make including a window and door renovation a strategic move. A home renovation can be an opportunity to think strategically about other potential work in your home. This can also help shorten the overall timeframe that your home might be in “reno” mode. Piggy-backing projects can potentially save time and cost, especially when hiring an architect, builder, or contractor to bring all the parts together.

Some casement windows are pushed open and closed manually using a handle, but the majority use a hand crank, which is typically positioned on the bottom of the window frame.

Sashes on casement windows are hinged on the sides and open outward from either the left or right. Some casement windows are pushed open and closed manually using a handle, but the majority use a  hand crank, which is typically positioned on the bottom of the window frame. Crank-operated windows work well in kitchens and bathrooms where cabinets or a bathtub might make accessing the upper part of the window difficult. Casement windows have a modern look to them — however, introducing divided lite bars or window grids, creates a more classic look.

Casement windows offer large, continuous expanses of glass because there is only one sash. Compared to other types of windows, casement windows are the best at preventing air infiltration when closed. They are equally as effective at attracting a breeze when open, and because they are positioned on the inside of the glass, screens remain clean for longer. Because the sash on casement windows allows for a nearly unobstructed opening, residents can exit through the window in the event of a fire or emergency, which would not be possible with other window styles.
