Side-Mounted Casement

A practical operating solution for casement windows that extend down to finished floor level.

The Side-Mounted Casement was developed for casement windows that carry down to the finished floor. In this condition, standard low-mounted hardware can be awkward to reach and less practical for daily operation. By positioning the operating hardware on the side of the sash, the window remains easier to operate while maintaining clean proportions, narrow sightlines, and architectural intent.

Side-Mounted Operation

Instead of locating the operating hardware near the bottom of the sash, the Side-Mounted Casement positions the hardware vertically along the side of the window. This keeps the operating point at a more practical reach height while preserving the appearance of a tall, clean casement unit.

Why Side-Mounted Operation Matters

Available Across Multiple Synergy Systems

The Side-Mounted Casement is available across several Synergy product platforms, allowing the operating solution to be adapted to different material requirements, architectural styles, and project conditions.
