Casement windows “crank-out” from the inside of the house, swinging to the outside. They can be hinged on either the left or the right side.
Engineered with heavy-duty hardware, the casement can open to a full 90 degrees.
Awning windows are similar to a casement turned on its side, except that they have different and very special hardware. This special hardware allows it to hinge at the top and open towards the outside from the bottom.
Hopper windows are windows somewhat similar to awning windows, yet in reverse. Hoppers are hinged at the bottom of the window and open up from the top falling into the inside of the home. Hoppers are commonly used in basements.
