Single Casement With Picture Window
One operable casement sash is paired with a fixed picture section to combine ventilation with a larger uninterrupted glass area.
Vinyl Casement & Awning Windows
Wide Ventilation, Clean Views and Convenient Crank Operation
Casement windows hinge at the side and awning windows hinge at the top. Both open outward and use a hand crank, creating a broad glass opening and practical operation for spaces that can be difficult to reach.
- Casement sashes open from the side
- Awning sashes open outward from the top
- Hand-crank operation for convenient access
Best Known For
Broad ventilation and convenient crank-controlled operation
How They Work
Hinged Sashes Swing Outward to Open the Glass Area
A casement sash is hinged at either side and can swing to the left or right. An awning sash is hinged across the top and opens outward from the bottom. Both styles use a hand crank to control the opening.
Roger’s product brochure also identifies heavy-duty hinges and arms, streamlined crank hardware and a flip-switch style lock as core parts of the operating system.

Configurations
Operable Sashes Can Be Combined With Fixed Glass
Roger’s product brochure presents single and double casements, an XOX assembly with operable sidelites and a top-hinged awning format. The final arrangement should follow the opening, desired view and ventilation needs.
Double Casement
Two outward-opening casement sashes create a wider operable area and allow ventilation from both sides of the assembly.
Casement With Fixed Center and Sidelites
Operable casement sections flank a fixed center panel, supporting broader views and ventilation across a larger opening.
Awning Window
A top-hinged sash opens outward from the bottom, making awning windows useful for controlled ventilation in compact or elevated openings.
Where They Work Well
A Strong Choice for Ventilation and Difficult-to-Reach Openings
Over Kitchen Sinks
Crank operation makes casement and awning windows practical in openings that are more difficult to reach directly.
Behind Furniture
The operating handle can simplify opening and closing where direct access to the sash would otherwise be limited.
Ventilation-Focused Rooms
Because the complete sash opens outward, these styles can provide a broad ventilation opening when exterior clearance allows.
Contemporary Openings
Their clean operating sections and larger glass areas work well with modern residential and commercial design.
Selection Guidance
What to Consider Before Choosing a Casement or Awning Window
These windows provide convenient crank operation and broad ventilation, but the exterior swing path, hinge direction, hardware access and surrounding architecture should guide the final selection.
Strong Fit When You Need
- A broad operable glass area for ventilation
- Crank operation in harder-to-reach locations
- Contemporary proportions and clear views
- Single, double or combined fixed-glass configurations
Review With the Project
- Exterior clearance for the outward-opening sash
- The correct left, right or top hinge direction
- Crank and lock access from the intended room
- Frame, grid, glass and screen choices for the property
Plan the Next Step
Confirm the Swing Direction and Exterior Clearance
A casement or awning window should be selected around the actual opening, hinge direction, crank access, exterior clearance and desired ventilation. Roger’s Windows can help review those details before the final configuration is chosen.
