What is a casement window?

A casement window, also known as a crank window, is a ype of window commonly used in Quebec in houses, condominiums, apartments and offices. People love them because they offer the perfect combination of aesthetics, functionality and energy efficiency. It is designed with one or more casements that are hinged to a window frame. The sashes open outwards on their sides by pivoting on these hinges.

Casement windows are opened and closed by a crank that turns on its own axis. Because they feature a multi-point locking system that compresses the weatherstripping when closed, they are the windows with the best water, noise and air tightness, making them a popular choice for improving the energy efficiency of a residential room or office.

Casement windows are available in a variety of sizes and styles, making them adaptable to different architectural aesthetics and design preferences. They are often used in bedrooms, kitchens and other areas of the home where ventilation and natural light are important.
