Casement and Double-Hung: Modern Features, Classic Appeal

Aside from their beauty, traditional style windows offer supreme durability against extreme weather conditions and energy efficiency to save you on energy bills. Here are their features and benefits:
Casement Windows
Operation – This type of window consists of a single glass panel with thin Fibrex® framing. A simple hand crank positioned in an easy-to-reach location lets the window open outward. The wide opening allows you to easily clean the exterior glass from the inside. This is ideal for use over counters or cabinets in your kitchen or bathroom.
Energy Efficiency – Your window replacement in New Jersey should protect you from harsh UV rays. Since our casement windows have a wide glass area for outdoor viewing and daylighting, we use our exclusive High-Performance™ Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass.
