What's The Right Type of Window For Your Home

Because of the latest innovations made to cater to different consumer needs, there are many key features applied in windows that help us have a better value for money. The modern window is usually made of energy efficient double glazed glass that helps to reduce energy bills and make your space more appealing. Still, there are many aesthetic options available and we have listed some of them for you to choose from.

Casement Windows

Casement windows are permanently mounted into place. They are hinged at either side and are operated using a handle. This type of window can be opened outward for full ventilation. To protect your room from elements, screens are installed on the inside of the home. Casement windows can effectively save energy when they are closed and locked.
