Casement windows are a versatile and stylish window type that features a single or multiple window panes hinged on one side, allowing them to open and close like a door.

2. Size: The larger the window, the more expensive it will be. Custom sizes may also add to the cost.
3. Glazing: Double-glazed windows are more energy-efficient, reducing energy costs in the long run, but they are more expensive upfront. Triple glazing is another option for added energy efficiency, but it comes at an even higher price point.
4. Hardware and Accessories: The type and quality of hardware (such as handles, hinges, and locks) and accessories (like insect screens and blinds) can also affect the costs.

A wide range of design details made the perfect mix of modern aesthetics and traditional sophistication, the simulated vertical hung windows with tilt & turn opening systems in this home are absolutely breathtaking. SDLS (Simulated Divided Lites with Spacer Bar) brings some historical vintage feeling to the whole building without losing any energy saving performance. Long narrow fixed windows creating larger-than-life expenses, coupled with German high-end systems made this project stand out from the rest.

Why choose the tilt and turn opening method?
Because it generally has better air seals than sliding, single hung, or double hung window frames. Tilt and turn windows form a complete seal when fully closed, this means they are less prone to water leakage, and cold draughts and you’ll keep more of your heating indoors where it belongs. They can be opened in the upper tilt way to ventilate at a minimum opening status and are easy to clean outside of the glass; when there’s a good day, they can be opened as normal inward casement windows.
