Casement windows are popular among homeowners. They can be installed as a single or in groups of two, three, or more to create a stunning wall of glass. They’re beautiful enough without embellishments, but these don’t cut it for homeowners with a more sophisticated taste.
No worries! There are several ways to customize casement windows in West Chester, Ohio. Consider these the next time you decide to replace your windows:
1. Exterior Color
Windows owe much of their beauty to the material and color of the frame. While casements typically feature leaner frames, that doesn’t mean they don’t have any appeal to contribute to your home. In fact, the sleekness of narrower frames tends to bring out the best parts of your exteriors. Your choice of color, however, plays an important role.
Renewal by Andersen® uses the wood composite Fibrex® on their casement windows. This material comes infused with color, even darker hues not produced by other window companies. Popular color options include the following:
Black – blends really well with light-colored exteriors in contemporary homes.
2. Interior Color
Since you’ll be looking at it every day, what’s inside also matters! For a cohesive overall look, take cues from your indoor furnishings for the frame’s interior color. Unlike a cheap vinyl replacement window, wood composite windows allow us to provide natural wood interiors. Our natural finishes like Pine, Oak, and Maple make a nice touch in Craftsman, Farmhouse, ranch, antebellum, and Cape Cod homes. If you live in a more modern home, consider getting the interior frame in these understated beauties:
3. Glass Option
The frame is not the only customizable part of the window. With the technology these days, you can now also choose the glass package you want for your unit. Keep in mind your home’s climate as well as energy requirements.
Different glass options have different energy efficiency features and levels. For instance, these are the ENERGY STAR–qualifying packages on Renewal by Andersen’s stellar roster:
4. Grille Pattern
Some homeowners find plain glass on a casement window rather boring. To make your replacement units more interesting, get matching grille patterns. Again, take hints from the architecture of your home for better historical accuracy and design cohesiveness. Here are some of the most common creative grille patterns you can choose from:
5. Hardware Finish
Locks and hand crank mechanisms are standard in many casements, but there’s no reason they should look ordinary. Well-chosen hardware finishes are a nice touch to the minimalistic design often found in these units.
