Awning & Casement Windows

Showing the single result

Black steel framed awning windows open inward, revealing a green garden and white picket fence, set against a marble interior backdrop.

Awning and casement windows bring ventilation, natural light and clear views into residential and commercial spaces. Both styles use steel hinged frames, but they open in different directions. An awning window is hinged at the top and opens outward from the bottom, while a modern casement window is hinged at the side and swings outward.

At Zen Doors & Window, we manufacture steel-frame casement and awning windows with slim profiles and generous glass areas. They suit living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, offices and other spaces where airflow and an architectural finish are important.

What are awning and casement windows?

Awning windows open outward from a top hinge. This opening style supports ventilation while helping shield the opening from light rain, depending on the window position and weather conditions.

Casement windows are hinged along one side and swing outward to create a broad opening. This allows air to enter from different directions and can support cross-ventilation throughout the room.

At Zen Doors & Windows, our steel-frame options include rectangular, arched and custom-shaped forms. A casement glass window may feature one large pane or divided glazing bars to suit contemporary or heritage-influenced architecture.

Glass casement windows can also be combined with fixed panels to create a larger window arrangement. Awning windows may sit above, below or beside fixed glazing or be paired with exterior window awnings where added shade is needed.

  • Clear views through generous glass areas
  • Slim steel profiles that support narrow sightlines
  • Custom shapes and glazing patterns for different architectural styles
  • Flexible placement alongside doors and fixed windows
  • Hardware options for regular residential and commercial use

How to choose the right awning or casement window

Review the window location

Consider the room, wall position and access around the opening. Modern awning windows often suit higher or wider placements, while casement windows work well where there is enough exterior clearance for the sash to swing.

Check the available opening space

Measure the height and width of the opening. Also check for nearby paths, plants, walls or outdoor furniture that could restrict an outward-opening sash.

Consider ventilation

Choose an awning window where controlled airflow and protection from light rain are priorities. A casement window may be more suitable where a broad opening and cross-ventilation are needed.

Select the glass and profile

Review the glazing type, steel profile and pane layout. Clear glass supports open views, while textured or obscured glass adds privacy in bathrooms, bedrooms and street-facing rooms.

Match the surrounding architecture

Choose a frame finish and glazing pattern that work with nearby doors, fixed windows and building details. Hardware and installation requirements should also be confirmed before manufacturing begins.
