Harvey Casement Windows

The windows in your home are more than a view to the outside. They insulate the family from summer heat and winter cold, and they add interior and exterior style all year round. If you're building a new house, choosing the right windows is an important decision. When it's time to remodel, replacing older windows is an opportunity to upgrade the looks of your home and its value. Whether you're starting a new house or sprucing up an older home, Harvey casement windows are a beautiful alternative to traditional choices.

The Casement Difference
Most homes feature standard double-hung windows, but these are limited in function and style; only the lower half opens. Casement windows are framed as a single or double pane, but the construction is the same with both models. Each frame is attached with side hinges that allow it to open from the inside with a small crank or lever. The design is similar to a door, making it easier to enjoy a day of fresh air.

The Casement Benefits

The major difference between casement windows and traditional models is the design. Because casements swing open and close, they offer several important advantages.

• They're easier to reach. Their design makes them perfect over kitchen sinks or any location that's hard to get to.
• They're easier to open. Their lever mechanism eliminates the stretch to unlock a top latch.
• They're easier to clean. Polishing both sides of the glass doesn't require working around the outside of the home.
• They're more secure. They lock with metal hooks embedded into the frame, making them very hard to pry open.
• They're great insulation. They offer a variety of energy-saving choices for a very little additional cost.

The Casement Style

Casement windows are available in standard sizes, making them perfect replacements for older units. However, casements also offer a range of beautiful designs that add to a home's good looks both inside and out. A half-round extension to the top of a double-hung casement window is a stylish addition that also opens up a room. Glass panes are available in contemporary textures from mottled to patterned, and latticed panes compliment classic interiors. Even hinges, levers and locks are available in different finishes for completing a decorated look.

Harvey casement windows are available in both wood and vinyl. Their good looks and ease of use make them a perfect choice for new home design or replacing older windows. Casement windows are durable, secure and a smart investment in home improvement.
