A fixed casement window does not open. Instead, it uses a casement-style frame profile that can match nearby operable casement windows. As a result, homeowners can keep consistent frame lines while adding glass in areas that do not need ventilation.
Falcon WD supplies and installs custom vinyl fixed casement windows across the GTA and selected Ontario communities. First, we review the opening and the surrounding window layout. Then we order the frame, glass, colour and installation details listed in your quote.
The glass unit stays sealed inside a non-operable frame. Therefore, the window has no crank, hinges or moving sash for daily use.
Manufacturers often design the exterior and interior frame lines to coordinate with their operable casement series. However, frame depth, glass position, grids and trim details vary by product. Falcon WD confirms the selected system before ordering.
A fixed casement can match the profile of nearby opening casements. Therefore, it works well in multi-window combinations where homeowners want a balanced appearance.
Because the unit does not need opening hardware, it provides a simple fixed glass area. As a result, it can bring more daylight into living rooms, stairwells and other spaces.
A fixed casement has no crank, hinges or sash locks to operate. Therefore, routine care usually focuses on the glass, frame, seals and exterior finishing.
You can use fixed casements beside operable casements, awnings or other compatible units. For example, a wide fixed centre unit can pair with narrower opening windows when the product line allows that layout.
Manufacturers offer different options by frame series, size and glass weight. Therefore, the written quote should name the exact product and glass package.
In addition, some exact frame-and-glass combinations carry ENERGY STAR certification. However, the fixed casement name alone does not prove certification. We must confirm the chosen model, size and glass package.
| Window style | Does it open? | Frame appearance | Common reason to choose it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed casement | No | Casement-style profile | Match nearby casements while adding fixed glass |
| Operable casement | Yes | Casement sash and frame | Ventilation through an outward-opening sash |
| Picture window | No | Fixed frame profile | Large fixed view where matching casement lines are not required |
| Awning window | Yes | Top-hinged operating sash | Ventilation through a bottom-opening sash |

Factories build fixed casement windows to custom dimensions. However, glass size, frame strength, reinforcement and shipping limits affect the final design. Therefore, Falcon WD confirms all measurements before production.
Before we quote the work, we check the old frame, sill, jamb depth and exterior finish. Then we select the correct installation method. A retrofit installation keeps more of the old frame, while full-frame replacement removes it.
Combination windows need compatible frame depths, mullions, colours and glass heights. Therefore, Falcon WD reviews the complete assembly instead of pricing each section as an unrelated window.
A fixed casement does not provide ventilation because it does not open. Therefore, the room may need another operable window or another approved source of ventilation.
It also cannot provide a window egress opening. For bedrooms, basements or other spaces with escape requirements, the project review must include a suitable operable opening and the rules that apply to that room.
Several choices affect the price. For example, width, height, glass, colour, grids, mullions, installation method, exterior capping and repair work can change the total.
To start, send us the project address, rough sizes and clear photos from inside and outside. After that, we can review the likely scope. We will still confirm final measurements before ordering.
A fixed casement window does not open. It uses a casement-style frame profile so it can match nearby operable casement windows.
A fixed casement stays closed and has no crank, hinges or opening sash. An operable casement opens outward for ventilation.
Both styles stay closed. However, a fixed casement usually uses a frame profile that matches casement windows, while a picture window often uses a simpler fixed frame with a different glass area and sightline.
No screen is normally required because the window does not open. A screen may appear on nearby operable units in a combination.
Many product lines offer triple-pane glass. However, the factory must confirm the exact size, glass weight and frame limits before ordering.
No. A fixed casement window does not open. Choose an operable casement, awning or another opening style where the room needs ventilation.
No. Because it does not open, a fixed casement window cannot provide the clear opening needed for window egress.
Production usually takes about three to four weeks after final measurement and deposit. Installation time depends on the number of windows and the condition of each opening.
Falcon WD can replace one fixed casement window or include this style in a larger home project. In either case, the written quote will list the product, glass, installation work and finish details.
