Opening inwards or outwards, double glazing casement windows are hinged on one side only. This permits easier cleaning and also delivers plenty of airflow during the summer. For more security, casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn design. Enabling them to open a small amount, tilt and turn double glazed windows have an additional hinge. Because they can be locked securely in position when only partially open to allow for a cool breeze to enter the room, the security is improved.

For that classic look to enhance a period house in Uttoxeter, there are double glazed sash windows on offer. These can be double hung, where both of the panes can be slid open, or single hung, where only one sash moves.

Through the use of uPVC materials, modern double glazing units can be made in pretty much any colour.
