There are 2 types of casement window common to the UK and we are seeing a resurgence of the flush casement windows variety. For those of you wondering what the term ‘flush casement’ means? If you imagine a closed window or sash. If the window sits flush within the frame, creating a flat surface as you look from the outside.
