French casement windows are very similar to standard casement ones and function essentially like French doors. They consist of a sash that is hinged on one side and opens outward, so it swings outwards. They feature multi-pane glass panels, much like those found in French doors. The main difference between the two is that casement windows are fixed in place while French door panels can be opened separately.
WHY CHOOSE FRENCH CASEMENT WINDOWS?
Our uPVC multiple chamber design significantly improves the thermal performance of the windows, reducing heat loss through the frames. When used with performance glass units the design, maximises the role of the glass and takes advantage of the contribution made by heat retention and solar gain.
While thermal performance of the windows and doors is important and always delivered to suit project requirements, our A-rated premium glazing specified as standard at DK Windows & Doors can achieve more than that. Soundproofing of our windows helps you create a quiet space to relax at home by creating restful environments, reducing health risks coming from noise pollution of busy world we live in today. Use of special coating on the glazing helps to reduce transfer of UV rays into the property that may otherwise cause sunburns – and is the main reason of ageing of the walls, furniture, or floors installed in the property.
All of our highly performing windows and doors are perfect solution for sustainable housing, help to reduce carbon emission from homes, are environmentally friendly and fully recyclable.
Use of highest-quality components make the windows and doors very secure and all products are PAS24 certified.
