A casement window is a type of window that has one or more clear horizontal panes of glass stretched across the front of a building along two sides below the sill. Casement windows are most commonly used in residential homes and small commercial buildings. Casements are also known as sash windows, since they open by sliding up and down along a vertical track that is set into the wall
Casement windows are typically framed with wooden studs, which are screwed into columns located around their perimeter. The top of each stud is usually covered with a decorative trim piece called a tracery or traceried molding. This trim is commonly decorated with carved designs, but it can also be made of textured or painted wood. Some casements have no traceries at all; others may have only one or two decorative pieces attached to the face of each column
The clear glass panes of casement windows are held in place by a series of metal brackets called stays and spring clips that hold them to the side walls and roof beams above them. Casement frames often include additional mounting supports on either side of the frame near its midpoint (usually where two columns meet), which help keep these parts properly aligned during installation and
what is a casement picture windowPicture windows are large fixed windows that create the effect of framing outdoor scenery like a picture frame. Because picture windows do not operate, they’re often paired with windows that do. Picture windows can be assembled with or without a sash. Windows without a sash, also called direct glaze windows, can provide larger unobstructed views.
