Common questions about casement windows
Casement windows are one of the most popular choices for UK homes, but it’s natural to have questions before making a decision. Below we answer the most common queries to help you choose with confidence.
1. What is a casement window?
A casement window is hinged at the side, top or bottom and opens outwards using a handle. It’s valued for ease of use, excellent ventilation and suitability for many property styles.
2. Are casement windows energy efficient?
Yes. Casement windows close tightly against the frame, creating a strong seal that reduces draughts and heat loss. When combined with modern double glazing, they help improve overall energy efficiency.
3. Are UPVC or aluminium casement windows better?
Both offer excellent performance. UPVC provides great value and insulation, while aluminium delivers slimmer frames and a more contemporary appearance. The best choice depends on style preference and budget.
4. Are casement windows secure?
5 Star’s casement windows include multi-point locking systems, internal beading and toughened glass options, providing strong security and peace of mind for homeowners.
5. Can casement windows suit older homes?
Yes. Casement windows are available in traditional styles, flush designs and heritage finishes, making them suitable for period properties as well as modern homes.
7. Can casement windows be customised?
Absolutely. Casement windows can be tailored with a wide choice of colours, hardware, glazing options and opening configurations to suit your home’s appearance and practical needs.
8. How long do casement windows last?
5 Star’s casement windows can last decades. UPVC typically lasts 20 – 30 years, while aluminium frames often last 30 – 45 years or more.
