When it comes to designing or renovating your home, choosing the right windows is essential. Single casement windows are a popular choice due to their versatility, energy efficiency, and classic style. With a variety of sizes available, it's important to understand which one is best suited for your needs. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the various single casement window sizes, their benefits, and how to select the perfect one for your home.
Before diving into the sizes, let's first understand what a single casement window is. A casement window is a type of window that opens on hinges, typically mounted on one side. Single casement windows have a single sash, which means they only have one movable part that opens and closes. This design allows for excellent ventilation, easy cleaning, and a clear, unobstructed view of the outdoors.
While custom sizes are available, it's important to know the standard sizes for single casement windows. These sizes are typically defined by the window's width and height. Here's a list of the most common standard sizes:
24 inches wide by 36 inches high (24x36)
24 inches wide by 48 inches high (24x48)
24 inches wide by 60 inches high (24x60)
28 inches wide by 54 inches high (28x54)
30 inches wide by 48 inches high (30x48)
36 inches wide by 60 inches high (36x60)
These standard sizes are usually available at most window suppliers and can be easily installed into most homes. However, it's essential to measure your window opening accurately to ensure the right fit.
If the standard sizes don't meet your requirements, custom single casement window sizes are also an option. Custom sizes allow you to create a window that perfectly fits your space and meets your specific needs. When ordering a custom size, it's crucial to provide accurate measurements to ensure a proper fit. Keep in mind that custom sizes may come at a higher cost and may take longer to manufacture and deliver.
When selecting the appropriate single casement window size for your home, consider the following factors:
1. Room size and layout: The size of the window should be proportional to the room. Larger rooms can accommodate bigger windows, while smaller rooms may require smaller windows to maintain balance. Additionally, consider the room's layout and how the window will affect furniture placement and traffic flow.
2. Purpose: The window's purpose will also influence its size. For example, a window in a bedroom may need to be larger for egress purposes, while a window in a bathroom may be smaller for privacy reasons.
3. Ventilation: Larger windows provide better ventilation, which is essential for rooms that tend to get stuffy or have high moisture levels, such as kitchens and bathrooms.
4. Energy efficiency: The size of the window can impact your home's energy efficiency. Larger windows may allow more heat to escape during the winter and enter during the summer, increasing your energy bills. However, energy-efficient windows with double or triple glazing can help mitigate this issue.
5. Aesthetics: The window size should complement your home's architectural style and enhance its curb appeal. Consider how the window will look from both the inside and outside of your home.
Accurate measurements are crucial when selecting the right window size. Here are some tips for measuring single casement window sizes:
1. Measure the width and height of the window opening from the inside of your home.
2. Measure the width at the top, middle, and bottom of the opening and use the smallest measurement.
3. Measure the height on the left, center, and right side of the opening and use the smallest measurement.
4. Record your measurements in inches and always double-check your numbers for accuracy.
By understanding the various single casement window sizes and considering the factors mentioned above, you can select the perfect window for your home. Whether you opt for a standard or custom size, a single casement window will provide your space with ample light, ventilation, and timeless style.
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.
Every window’s placement and shape not only add to the uniqueness of this home but also provide a more energy-saving ability for the owners.
Doorwin energy-efficient integrated glazing units feature double-pane glass, warm-edge spacers, argon gas fill, Low-E coatings, and fully tempered glass, they can not only create a comfortable and natural indoor environment but also save electricity bills and heating bills of more than 100 USD for the owner, it’s a real bargain compared to choosing a regular glazing set.
Aluminum Door offered an air of uniqueness and elegance to a home. With their luxurious patterns and beautiful finishes, it provides this house with a bounty of aesthetics and security. Aluminum entry doors allow you to resist any weather extremes, corrosion, and pests. So aluminum is one of the most resilient and durable materials you can select for front doors considering the price/performance ratio.
With pieces of double panes, and Low-E tempered glass. The door provides a good insulation performance.

For windows and doors, hardware is as important as the engine is to the car. The continuous technological innovation of the European hardware industry has strongly promoted the performance improvement and functional innovation of windows and doors. 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.
