Cleveland Casement Windows

Popular Local Trends & Styles

• Tudor Style

  Tudor architecture is distinctive yet eclectic. You may have seen their characteristic steep gables and decorative half-timbering in the Southern Moreland neighborhood in Shaker Heights or in parts of West Akron. The vertical design of casement windows works well in Tudor style, which emphasizes the height of the home. Casement windows were also commonly used together with picture windows in two- and three-window combinations that fit inside the exposed wood beams. 

• Energy-Efficient Windows Cleveland has a diverse climate. Energy-efficient casement windows can help keep your home comfortable no matter what type of weather rolls off the lake. In addition to extra window glass, double-pane and triple-pane windows have gas between the panes to provide additional insulation against the elements. Choosing replacement casement windows with multiple panes of glass can reduce your energy costs when you’re upgrading from single-pane windows.
• Contemporary Windows

  Contemporary design emphasizes natural light and minimalism. The unobstructed sightlines and simplicity of casement windows make them a contemporary favorite. Contemporary casement windows have a modern finish, minimalist hardware and neutral tones. Wood window frames add texture and bring visual interest to contemporary homes.

• Black Window Frames

  Black trim is a growing trend for both the interior and exterior of the home. Black casement windows modernize your interior design by providing a stark contrast from the rest of your decor and drawing the eye to your windows. On the outside, black frames can add a simple, elegant look to traditional white houses or complement darker shades for a deeper color scheme.

Recommended Customizations¹

Contemporary style borrows from modern design. For that sleek of-the-moment feel, choose simple, angular fold-away cranks in a steely chrome or nickel. Tudor homes feature more ornate and traditional decor. Curvy casement window hardware in brass or bronze is a better fit. Square grilles complement both Tudor and contemporary architecture.

Cleveland Climate Recommendations

Cleveland has a temperate climate, which means cold winters and mild summers. The city’s location next to Lake Erie brings more precipitation in the form of spring rains and lake effect snow in the winter. Adding features to maximize energy efficiency and durability can prep your casement windows for the Cleveland climate.

¹SunDefense Low-E dual-pane glass available on Architect Series, Pella Impervia, Pella Lifestyle Series, and Pella 250 Series windows. SunDefense Low-E triple-pane glass available on all Pella Lifestyle Series products except double-hung windows and Architect Series windows and patio doors.
