Casement Windows In Ottawa FAQ

What is a casement window?

A casement window is a type of window that opens outward like a door, hinged at one side. It offers a full 90-degree range of motion for maximum ventilation and a clear, unobstructed view. Casement windows are engineered for durability and energy efficiency, making them ideal for homes in areas with extreme weather, like Ottawa.

Are casement windows more secure?

Casement windows are highly secure due to their robust construction and advanced locking systems. The corrosion-proof multipoint locking mechanism ensures a strong seal, while the window’s outward-opening design makes it more difficult to pry open from the outside.

How big can a casement window be?

The size of a casement window can vary depending on the space and your preferences. However, due to their design, there are certain size limitations, especially for larger windows, as they may be difficult to install in spaces with limited clearance.

Are casement windows more energy efficient?

Yes, casement windows are known for their superior energy efficiency. Their single-panel design and tight seal help prevent air leakage, reducing heating and cooling costs.

Can casement windows open inward?

No, casement windows typically open outward. This outward swing allows for better airflow and ease of cleaning, as both sides of the glass can be accessed from inside the home.

How wide can a casement window be?

Casement windows can be made in various widths, but due to their construction and design, they typically range in width from 14 to 36 inches. For larger windows, multiple casement units may be combined, but size limitations can apply depending on the space and installation requirements.

Our Reputation is built on Trust and Quality

SK

The company salesman was great rep. He provided all necessary information and facilitated us applying for the government-sponsored interest free loan.
Fourteen windows where quickly changed by competent, knowledgeable and courteous workers. They answered all of our questions and looked after any worries we might have had. The complicated metal sheet flashing of all the windows in our mansard-type roof was done very well. Everything looks great and the house already starting to feel warmer. No cold is felt on the hands when in contact with the vinyl of the windows and very little when on the triple pan glass. Thank you so much to all of the Big City Windows & Doors staff for a job well done.

We will share your company.

I had Big City Windows replace a patio door and a large living room window, through a recommendation from our neighbour. Well from the start of the process, to the finish. I couldnt be happier. The quality of work was next to none, the quality of the materials used were amazing The 2 employees were great!! They arrived first thing in yhe morning and worked their butts off till the job was done. My wife and I are completely satisfied!! They left a clean work place when they were done.

WD

Big City Windows and Doors is by far one of the best companies with which we have dealt. They took the time to look over our project and come up with recommendations that met our needs.
We had a new side door and door from the house to the garage replaced. We really like the new self closing hinges on the door to the garage.
The installation team was amazing. They took even the smallest detail into account when finishing up the install. You would have never known they were there.
We're already saving towards replacing our front door to make a matching set.
They will be getting our business for the foreseeable future for sure.

CD

Very happy I was shown different windows styles. We went with the larger pane and smaller opening window. It's like looking through a clear opening. We have a big bushy backyard, so nice to see it so well. I actually had a couple deer come peek in...lol. all I could see were these big ears in the dark. Our windows are lower. Also went with vinyl frames...love them. There easy to wash and remove when painting around them.
The installers were also fantastic, they even re-adjusted our front door from last march 2023 without my asking.
Thank you very much.

CI

We just got ours installed in Orangeville, very easy from sales to installation. Price and quality is great. Did not get their names, the 2 installers were polite and very proffesional, explained what they were doing, and most important, very clean! Nothing on the ground. Also, the next day, when the scrap was picked up, he too was polite and proffessional.

VK

Big City installed our steel roof and they did a very thorough job. The house looks brand new and modern and the roof will last for 50 years plus. The installers were very friendly and professional and had it all done in two days. We have neighbours walking by and complimenting us on the new beautiful steel roof. We highly recommend Big City to anyone that is looking to replace their old asphalt shingles.

CA

Bit City team did an excellent job on our roof. They are very fast and very professional in dealing with customer. They are very friendly and makes us comfortable and confident that they will do things right.

Also, the steel roofing creates an outstanding look of our house. It's 50 years warranty and it will save our money in the long run.

Special thanks to Andrii Botiuk and his team. My wife and I are very satisfied to the outcome. We will definitely highly recommend your company.
