uPVC French casement windows are a variation of traditional casement windows that open outward from the centre without a fixed central mullion. Instead, they use a floating mullion that moves with the window when opened, creating a fully unobstructed opening and clear views.

French casement windows are popular because they combine practicality with style. Key benefits include:

-Uninterrupted views due to no central bar
-Wide opening angles (up to 90°) for maximum airflow
-Enhanced natural light, creating brighter interiors
-Fire escape suitability, as the full opening meets regulations

Their design creates a more open, airy feel in any room while also improving usability and safety.

Yes, they are highly energy efficient. Modern uPVC French casement windows feature:

-Multi-chambered profiles that trap heat
-Double or triple glazing options
-Weather seals to reduce draughts

These elements work together to help maintain a consistent indoor temperature, reduce heat loss, and potentially lower energy bills.

French casement windows are designed to be highly secure, despite their wide central opening. They are fitted with advanced multi-point locking systems that secure the window at multiple points along the frame, making forced entry much more difficult. The frames themselves are reinforced for added strength, while internal beading helps prevent the glass from being removed from the outside.
