Choosing French casement windows
Two opening sashes, one clear opening.
The opening
The centre section travels with one sash when both sides open. We check the usable aperture and the space outside for the sashes to swing.

French casement describes the arrangement. Compare the compatible uPVC and aluminium systems on the configuration page before choosing a finish.

Handle positions and the order in which the sashes open affect daily use. Try the mechanism and explain how you want to ventilate the room.

Hitchin homes, and what to check first.
The homes. Hitchin is an old market town with a medieval and Georgian centre, Victorian terraces around it, and interwar and post-war housing further out.
What that means. The period streets suit slim, traditional frames, often sliding sash or flush casement, and the later housing is usually a straight replacement.
Check first. Much of the town centre is a conservation area with many listed buildings, so check before changing the look of an older house.

Your questions
Buying French casement windows in Hitchin.
Product choices, pricing and what happens before we fit.
Is French casement a material or a window layout?
It is a layout: two side-hung sashes open without a fixed centre mullion remaining in the aperture. We offer this arrangement in compatible uPVC and aluminium systems; the main configuration page shows the choices.
How do I get a price for French casement windows?
Build your price online using approximate sizes, or book a free consultation and we price the job with you. Both use the same software and price list. Once you decide to go ahead, a technical survey confirms the measurements and fitting details before anything is made.
Do you supply and fit in Hitchin?
Yes. We cover Hitchin and its SG4 and SG5 postcodes from our Milton Keynes base, and everyone who surveys and fits works for us. Nearby, we also fit French casement windows in Letchworth, Stevenage and Luton.
Do I need permission to replace windows in Hitchin?
Hitchin is covered by North Hertfordshire District Council. Listed buildings need listed building consent, and in the conservation area a change of style or material may need planning permission. Elsewhere, like-for-like replacements are usually permitted development.

I had an excellent experience with Fenster Glazing from start to finish. Nick Perry and David managed the initial quote to installation process seamlessly, keeping communication clear, honest, and completely stress-free. When it came to the actual fitting, Zac and Shane did a fantastic job with the installation, working efficiently and leaving everything spotless. The professionalism from the entire team was top-notch, and the final result looks brilliant. I highly recommend them.
