Casement Windows – uPVC, Aluminium and Timber
The selection of an appropriate window system is a complex balance of aesthetics, thermal efficiency, and long-term durability. At Glitz Windows, we specialise in installing top-tier casement window solutions engineered to withstand the demanding British climate. From the sleek, minimalist lines of modern aluminium to the classic warmth of natural wood, we provide fully tailored solutions to match your property’s unique character and your personal style.
What are Casement Windows?
A casement window is a very flexible type of glazing, where the sash is hinged to the outer frame by one or more hinges. Casement windows are typically hinged outward, operating in a manner that resembles a door and allowing for 100% unobstructed ventilation.
Because of the way that the sash fits against the frame, casement windows are able to create a tight seal. This type of construction makes them one of the most efficient and durable types of windows available today.
Popular Types of Casement Windows
Side-Hung Casement Windows
The most common type of casement window in the UK is the side-hung casement. The window opens outwards from the side with the aid of vertical hinges. The window is suitable for living rooms, kitchens and the front of the house.
The double-glazed window provides adequate ventilation and security. The window is ideal for modern and traditional homes.
Top-Hung Casement Windows
The top-hung casement window opens outwards from the bottom with the aid of horizontal hinges. The window is suitable for bathrooms and bedrooms.
The uPVC and aluminium window provides adequate ventilation without the need to open the window. The window is ideal for the top area of the building.
Key Features & Benefits of Casement Windows
A contemporary casement window from us offers a number of important practical benefits:
- Exceptional Energy Efficiency: We utilise premium double-glazed units, where argon gas-filled chambers are used and low-e coatings are applied to the glass to keep warmth within your home.
- High-Security Locking: All windows have been provided with multi-point locking. This locks the sash onto the frame at several points, making it highly secure against trespassers.
- Weather Protection: The windows have been provided with high-quality EPDM seals, which ensure that there is always fresh air passing through. The trickle vents have been provided for this purpose.
Versatility: Options for side-hung or top-hung configurations have been provided in order to meet the ventilation needs of individual rooms.

Choose the Right Casement Window Material
To get the best results for your house, it is important to understand the “Entities” and “Attributes” of the different types of window materials.
uPVC Casement Windows
The most popular option for today’s homeowner, uPVC casement windows are designed for optimal heat retention. Our uPVC profiles contain a multi-chambered internal structure that locks in heat, giving us an A++ Energy Rating. They are also fully UV stabilised, so they won’t fade or distort, and require no upkeep whatsoever, simply a quick wipe clean.
Aluminium Casement Windows
If you are looking for a minimalist, luxury look, then Aluminium Casement Windows are the ultimate solution. Aluminium, being a very strong material, allows for narrow sightlines, giving you more glass and less frame. We incorporate our Thermal Break technology, where a reinforced polyamide bar sits between the inner and outer profiles, to prevent heat loss, as well as looking stunning.
Timber Casement Windows
With timber casement windows, we can provide an organic level of natural insulation, which synthetic materials are unable to replicate. Not only is timber thermally efficient, but it can also provide a lifespan of over 60 years with adequate treatment. This is the choice of heritage properties, especially those with owners who wish to preserve the original character of their home.
Wooden Casement Windows
Our Wooden casement windows are handcrafted with traditional craftsmanship. These windows can be supplied in sustainable softwood or hardwood finishes. They can be painted in any RAL colour. Wooden windows are known for their tactile feel and are often specified for their breathability and sustainable credentials.
Flush Casement Windows
A flush casement window is a popular choice in modern architecture, known for its clean and simple design. Unlike standard casement windows, the sash sits completely flush within the frame, creating a smooth, flat finish. It is designed to replicate traditional 19th-century timber windows but is now available in modern uPVC and aluminium, giving you a classic heritage appearance with improved energy efficiency, security, and durability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Are casement windows secure?
Yes. Casement windows are arguably the most secure window type. With our multi-point locking system, it is almost impossible for an intruder to get any leverage from the outside. The fact that the lock is built into the frame, with the sash locked in tightly by the hinges, makes casement windows extremely difficult to breach.
How long do casement windows last?
Casement window longevity depends on the materials used. uPVC casement windows have an average lifespan of 25-35 years. Aluminium and Timber casement windows have an even longer lifespan of 45 years or more.
How much do casement windows cost?
The cost of replacement windows in the UK depends on the aperture, number of openers and materials used. uPVC casement windows have the lowest cost. Timber and Aluminium casement windows have a higher cost due to the materials used.
What is the difference between a casement window and a regular window?
A “regular” window most likely means a fixed-pane window or a sliding sash window. The primary difference is that the casement window opens and closes with the aid of a hinge, similar to the way a door functions.
