Windows play a significant role in the overall aesthetics and functionality of your home. They can transform the look of your space, improve ventilation, and even increase the value of your property. One popular window style is the casement window, which offers a versatile and attractive option for homeowners. In this blog post, we will delve into the world of PGT casement windows, focusing on the size chart and how to choose the perfect fit for your home.
PGT is a reputable brand known for manufacturing high-quality windows and doors. Their casement windows are hinged on the side and open outward, which allows for optimal ventilation and unobstructed views. These windows are designed with energy efficiency, durability, and security in mind, making them a popular choice among homeowners.
Before we dive into the size chart, it's essential to understand the terminology used in window measurements. The most common terms you'll come across include:
Width (W): The horizontal measurement of the window, from one side to the other.
Height (H): The vertical measurement of the window, from the top to the bottom.
Rough Opening (RO): The dimensions of the hole in the wall where the window will be installed. This measurement should be slightly larger than the actual window size to allow for proper installation and insulation.
Now that we have a basic understanding of window measurements let's explore the PGT casement window size chart. The chart is organized by series, with each series offering different design features and options. Some popular PGT casement window series include:
Series 700: This series features a traditional design with a beveled exterior face. It is available in various sizes, with widths ranging from 20 5/8" to 36" and heights ranging from 24" to 72".
Series 770: The 770 series has a sleek, contemporary design with a square exterior face. The available sizes include widths from 20 5/8" to 36" and heights from 24" to 72".
Series 780: This series is designed for impact resistance, making it ideal for homes in hurricane-prone areas. Available sizes include widths from 20 5/8" to 36" and heights from 24" to 72".
Now that we've explored the PGT casement window size chart, it's time to determine the best fit for your home. Here are some factors to consider:
1. Room Size and Function: Consider the size of the room and its purpose when selecting a window size. Larger rooms may require larger windows to provide adequate natural light and ventilation, while smaller spaces may benefit from smaller windows to maintain privacy and avoid overwhelming the room.
2. Architectural Style: The size and style of your casement window should complement the overall architectural style of your home. For example, a modern home may benefit from the sleek design of the Series 770, while a traditional home may be better suited for the Series 700.
3. Energy Efficiency: Larger windows may offer more natural light, but they can also lead to increased heat gain and loss. Be sure to consider the energy efficiency of your chosen window size, and look for features such as Low-E glass and argon gas-filled glazing to improve performance.
4. Local Building Codes: It's essential to consult your local building codes and regulations before selecting a window size. Some areas may have specific requirements for window sizes, particularly in bedrooms where minimum egress requirements must be met.
5. Budget: Lastly, consider your budget when selecting a window size. Larger windows may be more expensive, so it's essential to balance your design preferences with your financial constraints.
Choosing the perfect PGT casement window size for your home can be a daunting task, but with the right information and guidance, it doesn't have to be. By understanding the PGT casement window size chart and considering factors such as room size, architectural style, energy efficiency, local building codes, and budget, you can confidently select the ideal window size for your home. With the perfect fit, your new casement windows will not only enhance the aesthetics of your space but also improve its functionality and value.
Casement windows are the most common style of window. They feature hinged panels that swing open and closed. Casement windows are available in single panels or multiple panels. The direction a door swings, either to the right or the left, is called the handing. In addition to handing, window are identified as either inswing or outswing depending on whether they open into the house or towards the outside.

This newly built private house is in Sydney, Australia. The area occupied by the fenestration system in our scheduled design drawings was up to more than 110 square meters. 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.
The client's idea was to maintain a certain vintage feel, and our aim was to meet the energy efficiency needs and standards of modern houses as much as possible while maintaining a retro design. Doorwin’s 61S simulated hung windows with tilt & turn openings is a respectful modernization of a classic architectural masterwork.
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.
Our well-crafted bespoke systems enhance the functionality and panoramic view of this modern house.
Huge, fixed glass walls up to seven meters long and two meters high bring great lighting and open views, making it really refreshing to the mind. Five meters high long narrow windows give the whole building a contemporary aesthetic.

In this project, Doorwin uses Hoppe™ multi-point locks, hinges, and handles from Germany.
Multi-point lock systems provide not only the burglar-resistance but also a tighter compression seam, making the window keeps good energy-efficient performance. Together with Technoform Bautec’s insulation edge bond and sealant strips, these make up our products' top insulation and energy-saving performance.
