Casement Windows Cost Guide
Casement windows are operated by side hinges attached to the frame and can be opened towards the interior or exterior of a building by turning a handle. These attractive windows are often used in groups to give a beautiful picture-window look. Casement windows also come in many shapes and styles to complement any architectural residential or business structure.
Costs of Casement Windows
Unlike the common single and double hung window, casement windows allow for an unobstructed view. These classic style windows are great for those who live in scenic geographies and who enjoy letting the fresh breezes in as they allow for plenty of ventilation with just a few cranks of a handle. For older homes as well as contemporary homes, casement windows offer a fresh, updated look and design. Their distinctive vertical look in a wide variety of colors makes these windows an excellent choice for stone, stucco and brick homes and buildings.
- Highest price casement window: $1,599
- Lowest price casement window: $75
Casement windows can be purchased for as little as $75 at wholesale window centers. Home improvement stores also offer several grades of casement windows to choose from based on the quality and manufacturer, and they can be custom-ordered in sizes ranging from 37 inches by 79 inches to 14 inches by 17 inches. Below is a list of various grades of casement windows ranging in costs and sizes:
For high quality casement windows, Pella makes a double casement window with built-in shades measuring 47 inches by 39 inches at a cost of $1,599. Another high quality casement window is available by Jeld-Wen, measuring 37 inches by 73 inches and selling for $938. Another Jeld-Wen casement window measuring 30 inches by 60 inches is priced at $528. One of the smallest sizes of the Pella casement windows available sells for $407 and measures 17 inches by 17 inches.
Medium grade casement windows are available from $108 to $309 by Pella and $189 by Tafco Windows, measuring 24 inches by 48 inches. Hy-Lite makes a nice casement window in medium grade for $572 at 21 inches by 53 inches and an acrylic block style in 21 inches by 45 inches for $409.
An affordable casement window by Pella is called Impervia, with prices ranging from $100 to $400, and it is available in a large size of 79 inches by 37 inches for $730 down to the smallest size of 20 inches by 17 inches for $237.
Installation costs should be added into the initial cost of the window and can range from $200 to $400 per window, but it may cost less if a large amount of windows are installed at once.
Types of Casement Window Material
Casement windows are available in several materials. One of the most high-quality materials that casement windows are available in is called the aluminum clad, which is basically aluminum covered wood. The exterior of the window is aluminum, and the interior is wood that can be ordered finished or unfinished. Casement windows are also available in wood in natural pine, oak or maple and come as finished or unfinished. The next best material is vinyl, which is a very durable material. It is made not to flake, blister, fade, peel or chalk. One of the least expensive casement window material is what Pella calls Impervia or Duracast, which is fiberglass and is made to resemble wood.
Another item to consider is the value of the window’s insulation. The window will have a U-factor that is used to measure its thermal conductivity. The lower the U-factor is, the better the window is insulated. Then there is the R-value, which refers to the window’s resistance to heat conduction. However, the higher the R-value, the better the window is.
Various Styles of Casement Windows
Casement windows are used as stained glass windows in churches, as skylights and as windows above doors, known as transom windows. The awning, hopper and tilt and turn or tilt and slide windows are all types of casement windows with slight variations.
Styles of casement windows can be custom made in various decorative shapes such as:
- Bows
- Eyebrows
- French
- Bays
- Picture combinations
Advantages of Casement Windows
One of the greatest aspects next to the aesthetic look of the casement window is the wonderful ability it has to bring in the outside air. Casement windows, unlike other windows, have the ability to catch breezes that may be blowing by in various directions.
Casement windows provide a pleasing, unobstructed view. With no sashes, the view is more wide and clear. Often, people choose to install several casement windows together where picture windows or bay windows aren’t able to be installed.
