Casement Windows in Burlington
Airtight, crank-open casement windows built for Burlington homes and lakefront weather. Unobstructed views, ENERGY STAR vinyl and a lifetime transferable warranty — supplied and installed by our own local crews, from Aldershot to Alton Village.
Built for Burlington Homes
Why Casement Windows Suit Burlington’s Housing Stock
Burlington runs from the Lake Ontario shoreline up to the Niagara Escarpment, and the crank-open casement fits homes across that whole spread. Along the lakeshore in Roseland and Shoreacres, and in the older streets of Aldershot and downtown Brant, casements stand up to wind-driven rain off the lake far better than any sliding window — the harder it blows, the tighter they seal.
In the newer subdivisions of Millcroft, Alton Village, The Orchard and Tyandaga, casements deliver the clean, modern sightline and big, clear glass today’s homeowners want, plus easy one-hand cranking above kitchen counters and in bedrooms. Two-storey homes love that you can clean the outside glass from inside the room.
Because so many Burlington openings — especially in the older neighbourhoods — are out-of-square, we custom-build every casement to your exact opening, no big-box spacers or fillers. Near the water and on heritage streets, we help you choose profiles and colours that suit the home and the neighbourhood.
At WindowFixers.ca we both supply and install every casement with our own trained crews, from the free in-home measurement to the final cleanup — across Burlington and the wider GTA.

Why Homeowners Choose Casements
The Advantages of Casement Windows
More airflow, a tighter seal and a cleaner view than almost any other operating window — here is what makes the casement a Burlington favourite.
Easy Crank Operation
A simple fold-down crank swings the sash fully open with one hand — no wrestling with a painted-shut or seized sash. Perfect for hard-to-reach spots above a Burlington kitchen sink or counter.
Airtight Compression Seal
Casements close like a door against a continuous weatherstrip, compressing tight all around. It is the most airtight operating window you can buy — ideal for the wind-driven rain and gusts that roll in off Lake Ontario.
Unobstructed Views & Light
With no middle rail dividing the glass, a casement is nearly all view. You get maximum daylight and a clean sightline of the lake, the escarpment or your backyard.
Full-Opening Ventilation
The sash opens 90 degrees to catch the lake breeze and scoop fresh air into the room — far more airflow than a slider or hung window of the same size.
Egress-Capable Sizing
Because the whole sash opens, a correctly sized casement can serve as a code-compliant egress exit — a smart choice for finished basements and bedrooms in older Aldershot and downtown Burlington homes.
Low-Maintenance Vinyl
Moisture-proof vinyl (uPVC) frames never rot, rust, swell or need repainting — a real advantage in Burlington’s humid, lakeside climate where wood casements quickly suffer.
Configurations
Casement Window Styles We Install
From a single crank-out sash to a wide French pair or a picture-and-casement combination, we build the configuration that fits your opening and how you want the room to feel. Want the full technical rundown on the casement style itself?
See our casement windows guide
Single Casement
One crank-out sash in a single frame — the classic casement. Great on its own for bathrooms, stairwells and narrow walls, or ganged in a row across a wider opening.
Double / French Casement
Two sashes that crank open from the centre with no post between them. When both are open you get an unobstructed, doorway-wide opening and the fullest possible airflow.
Casement Picture Combination
A large fixed picture pane flanked by operating casements — the best of both worlds: a big, clear lake or garden view in the centre with venting sashes on either side.
Fixed Casement-Style
A non-operating unit built to match the sightlines of your operating casements, so a whole wall of windows looks seamless while keeping cost down where venting is not needed.
Energy Efficiency for Burlington’s Climate
Burlington’s lakeside location means humid summers and cold, damp winters, with wind coming off Lake Ontario and down the escarpment — so the seal on your windows matters. A casement’s compression seal closes the sash tight against the frame on all four sides — the harder the winter wind presses, the tighter it gets. That is why casements are consistently among the most energy-efficient operating windows.
We pair that tight seal with double- or triple-pane Low-E glass and argon fill, insulated multi-chamber vinyl frames, and warm-edge spacers to cut heat loss and stop the interior condensation that plagues older lakeside windows.
Every casement we install is ENERGY STAR certified for the Ontario climate zone, so you get lower heating and cooling bills and a more comfortable, draft-free home year-round.
Compare the Styles
Casement vs Other Window Styles
Not sure a casement is right for every opening? Here is how it stacks up against the other styles we install — and where each one shines.
Casement vs Awning
Both crank outward and seal tight. Casements hinge on the side and open taller; awnings hinge at the top and can stay open in light rain — a common pick for wider, shorter openings.
Explore awning windowsCasement vs Slider
Sliders glide sideways and never project outward, so they suit walkways and decks. Casements seal far tighter and open fully, but need clear swing space outside.
Explore slider windowsCasement vs Hung
Single- and double-hung windows slide vertically and match traditional Burlington facades. Casements are more airtight and energy-efficient, with a cleaner, more modern sightline.
Explore hung windowsCasements, Egress & Burlington Permits
Because the whole sash swings open, a properly sized casement makes an excellent egress window — the emergency exit the Ontario Building Code requires for any legal basement or ground-floor bedroom. If you are finishing a basement in an older Aldershot or downtown Burlington home, we confirm the clear-opening size that qualifies.
A straight like-for-like window replacement usually does not need a City of Burlington building permit, but enlarging an opening, cutting a new egress, work on a heritage-designated property, or projects near a regulated shoreline or ravine can require a permit or Conservation Halton approval. We tell you plainly what your project needs and handle the details correctly — no guesswork, no surprises.
What to Expect
Our Casement Installation Process
A clear, four-step process so you always know exactly what happens next — from your first measurement to the final walk-through.
Free In-Home Measurement
We measure every opening precisely — including the odd, out-of-square frames common in older Aldershot and downtown Burlington homes — review your glass, colour and hardware options, and give you an upfront, all-in written price.
Careful Removal
We remove your old wood, aluminum or vinyl casements one opening at a time, protecting your floors and trim, and prepare a solid, square opening for the new unit.
Airtight Install & Seal
Your new vinyl casement is set level, fully insulated and sealed inside and out against Burlington’s lake winds and driving rain — so the crank turns smoothly and the seal stays tight for years.
Finish, Cleanup & Warranty
We finish the trim, haul away every old window and all debris, and back the job with the manufacturer warranty plus our own installation workmanship guarantee.
