They each bring different features and advantages to the table, and are more suited for different styles and purposes.

uPVC Casement Windows

Casement windows are also sometimes known as side hung windows, they can be opened from both inside and outside. They are offered in various combinations of openable and fixed patterns. The outer frames of these windows are connected to the sash through friction hinges. Casement windows are the most common style of windows, and suit all types of spaces and interiors.

These windows come in varied sizes and can be customized depending on the needs of the occupants. They are available in various minimum to maximum height and width ranges. You can also choose between open and fixed patterns. They are ideal while renovating existing spaces because their versatile design allows them to be installed without disturbing the existing frame or harming the interior walls.
