Sunshield™ Vinyl Window System: Casement Series
Series 5800 Casement Window and Picture Window
Sunshield™ Casement Windows are simply beautiful. This is the window you want in your home for its style, class, and uninterrupted view. Casements are so popular among exclusive buyers because they furnish narrow, tall views like picture windows but, unlike picture windows, casements open for a breeze with a turn of a handle. In strong winds, the sash actually presses inward against the frame for a tighter seal than other types of operating windows.
Available in Linen White, Desert Sand and Adobe.
