GiggsTk: HsLBroker An insightful post, thanks so much. But how is the net attached, if from inside, I guess there'll be a little opening to allow for space to open the window?
And most importantly to me; there is a God, and I'll like you start acknowledging that. Thanks ![smiley](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/smiley.png) first of all, Jehovah El Shaddi, the father of external is my God, my creator and the one that created me, I must confess to you, that I made a typographical error, I wanted to type I'm not an atheist, I lost the not, then secondly, the net is always sliding net, I'm grateful to u for checking out. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Intellime: This is a very good post. I will like to make casement windows with double glass. Say 5mm glass each. This is similar to casement windows in UK required for absolute noise cancellation. The sash should be able to contain double glass conveniently with rubber seals on both sides of each glass to eliminate transmission of external vibrations. Kindly let me know how much this would cost for A-1, A-2 & A-3 casement windows.
A good price and a proof of previous excellent work could earn you a contract. Please best price only. There's more to double pane Windows than just sandwiching two pieces of glass. You'll need to consider the seals and most especially the gas used to fill the space between the panes of glass. Na gode. |

@op,I disagree with you, all the casement windows I have seen have not outlasted sliding windows, but I agree with you on the noiseless nature of casement windows, the breeze in lagos is strong enough to weaken the mechanism of any casement windows... |

HsLBroker: Buying or considering replacing your traditional windows with casement windows, these guides may be advantageous to you as a nairalander or a non nairalander.
We are all here to learn and reading this article now will give you an insight to some important things about Casement window which is one of the best most popular modern type of windows in World, other types of windows includes basement, bay, awning and louvers windows.
So let get started, let us share our ideals and experience as well.
Awning windows and Basement windows also look like casement windows but they are partially different in terms of installation but louvers windows are entirely different from all.
Casement windows are mostly made of aluminum.
In Nigeria we have different companies importing these products for making of these windows by the process called fabricating.
Tower Standard Aluminum is the best of all types of products imported to Nigeria, we also have thick imported.
The standard glass thickness for residential building is 5mm, you can choose to have a transparent glass, black, white or cream but all of this is a choice, but for security purpose the best one is the type that you can see people outside when you are inside in the afternoon or morning, but they can’t see you, they will only be looking at themselves as if it was a mirror they are seeing and in the night they can hardly see what is inside even when the light is on in the night expect the person is as close to the window as skin is closer to the bones in our body.
Casement windows are usually hung vertically with an opening window hinged from the left or right side of the frame. The opener can be inward or outward, but is more commonly installed with the opening element moving in an outward motion. Windows which open inwardly are usually seen in residential apartments or buildings where security and safety are an issue of concern or paramount. Due to the simple construction and stout, ruggedness, staunch and sturdy frame, casement windows are known to stand the test of time, compare to all major types of windows, without repairs or replacement. The Crank is the controller locker of the opening and closing of the window unit, if the crank is not well fix or attach, or the material use is not standard, then the crank is likely to fail at a very short time.
The biggest market for these casement windows products is at Aluminum Village, Dopemu close to Egbeda in Lagos, Nigeria.
Casement windows can be embedded with net, and burglary so there is no need of doing a separate burglary proof or net, when you are considering casement windows for your project, though there are some people that love to have their casement windows and net embedded together while they do a separate burglary that will be install separately but at the end you will end up spending more money than you need to spend on a single window that will have a casement, burglary and net embedded together.
If you are considering the casement, burglary and net embedded in the iron rod that will be use inside the burglary pipe is 16mm.
Important things to consider are Reasonable Price, Efficiency, Zero Noise Cancellation, Available in Different Designs and Color, Ventilation.
Reasonable Price Casement windows are one of the best priced windows types, I can categorically tell you that a casement windows measuring 4ft x 4ft or 1.2m x 1.2m with burglary and net embedded together is around N31, 000 to N32, 000 depend on the seller right now, without burglary is between N27, 000 to N28, 000 plus.
Efficiency Casement windows are one of the most energy efficient windows, the sash which is the framework in which panes of glass are set in the window, when closed form a seal around the entire windows frame, reducing or zero cancelling the amount of Air Leakage which can pass between the inside and the outside space, so your air conditioners can attach uppermost coolest of the inside house.
Zero Noise Cancellation Zero Noise penetration or cancellation from the outside space is another added value for you when you install a casement windows, so whatever you are saying inside your room will not leak outside and whatever noise outside can’t come inside especially when you leave beside a church or a mosque, please remember I’m an Atheist, lol.
Available in Different Designs and Color Casement windows is available in various variety of finishes and colors designs with range of accessories such as chrome, vinyl or brass crank handles, you can also add a range of optional extra such as surface grills and lead grills this makes the casement windows more attractive to the eye and less plain looking like sliding windows.
Ventilation Casement windows provide good ventilation and usually allow two way ventilation methods, one which allows you to open the windows full and the other which allows you to open the windows by a way of centimeters instead. Either of this option is good for letting air into your house, particularly in the hotter dry weather or summer season like the westerner use to say.
CC lalasticlala you know this important to nairalanders with all due respect, I thought i wrote i'm not an atheist, so i acknowledge that I made a typographical error by omiting not when I stated in quote "i'm an atheist lol" I want to write "I'm not an atheist lol" I acknowledge my God Jehovah El-Shaddi the Father of Light, the creator of heaven and earth 2 Likes |

Nice one OP, but u didn't talk about the disadvantages, when its hot at night u can't open down the window, and the heat increases. If u have it in your kitchen at night and u switch on the lights, u won't see what's going on outside, but those outside will see u clearly. And lastly the net can be shifted/remove from outside if the window is opened. 1 Like |

Great write up, I salute you for this great work. God bless you. But I think you should have left out the price issue as some clients would always insist on the best profile in the market, for instance Nigalex, which is higher in price. Meanwhile, for those asking about the combination of net, burglary and window and how to get the window open without the net being opened to mosquito, it's simple, casement window is designed in a way that makes you access from within first the net, followed by the burglary then the window handle. So that allows you slide the net, then reach for the window handle through the burglary, open the window, then gently slide-close the net back. Casement window is the best as OP has highlighted above. Once again, kudos to you for the write up, I love it! By the way, are you based in Dopemu too? God bless our works, we will not labour in vain. 1 Like |

Cranks need to be fitted or fixed properly with the best materials so that it can last or stand the test of time. I must commend your effort put together to compose this post. More grease to your elbow. I want to add this that a Standard Tower material is good enough for Casement windows when fabricated efficiently. I've heard and seen customers talk about Nigaless material but i can boldly say Nigaless is overrated especially if you are trying to cut cost( if you are financially bouyant, you can go for it). Imported material is a NO NO like the Op said. 1 Like 1 Share |
