Casement windows (or crank windows) are hinged on one side and open outward to the left or right. They’re ideal for kitchens and bathrooms, or other places where maximum airflow is desired.
When you open a casement window, the sash is lifted away from the frame, with only one thin side keeping it attached to the house. Removing the sash entirely is the only other option for achieving a more fully open window.
Advantages of Casement Windows vs Other Windows
Casement windows are the ideal hybrid between fixed windows and sliding sash windows. You’ll enjoy a clear, unobstructed view and have the ability to fully open the window. Other windows have at least one strip dividing the window. A casement window is the only type of window available on the regular consumer market that fully opens.

Popular Style of Casement Windows in Michigan
Traditional Casement Windows: Featuring a classic design, this window has a single sash and opens outward using a crank handle. This type is typically made with wooden frames and is a popular choice for historical and traditional homes.
French Casement Windows: Also known as double casement windows, French casement windows feature two sashes and open outward from the center. There is no center post. This style provides a wide opening and unobstructed views. You’ll often find this style in cottage or country-style homes.
Push-Out Casement Windows: These windows operate similarly to traditional casement windows, but instead of a crank handle, they are opened by pushing them out. They offer a classic look with a modern twist and are often used in contemporary or modern homes.
Awning Casement Windows: Awning casement windows open from the bottom, and are hinged at the top. They offer ventilation while still providing some protection from the rain. They are often used in contemporary or modern homes and work well in bathrooms or basements.
Hopper Casement Windows: Hopper casement windows are similar to awning windows, but they open from the top and are hinged at the bottom. They are often used in basements, where they provide natural light and ventilation while still maintaining privacy.
Top Hung Casement Windows: These windows are hinged at the top and open outwards from the bottom. You’ll often find this style in modern and contemporary homes. They provide a sleek and minimalistic look and work well in areas where there is limited space.
