Auburn Window Replacement provides professional casement and awning windows in Auburn, AL for residential and commercial properties across Lee County and east Alabama. There is one thing a crank window does that nothing else can, and it is worth understanding because it decides where these belong and where they do not. Closing the sash pulls it inward against a gasket that runs the whole way around the opening, so the seal gets tighter the further you turn the handle.
Everything else about a casement follows from that. It is why the air leakage numbers on this category are the lowest in most catalogs. It is why a casement is the right unit on a wall that catches wind and rain together.
And it is why the locking mechanism engages at more than one point down the sash edge, which means a casement already satisfies the sash locking requirement the maintenance code puts on ground-floor rented windows without anyone screwing an accessory on afterwards.
Awnings are the same idea turned on its side, hinged along the top so the bottom swings out. The open sash shelters its own opening, so you can leave one cracked through an afternoon storm without water arriving on the sill. That is why they end up over sinks, high in bathrooms and above a fixed lite on a stair landing.
Here is the part that decides whether you like the window in year eight. Turning that handle drives a small gearbox with an arm linked to the sash, and the cheap ones wear their teeth round.
Ask three questions: is the gear set steel or bronze rather than zinc, can it be swapped without taking the sash out, and is it listed as an orderable part.
This is the component that fails on this window type, and it is the one nobody asks about in a showroom.
Mesh sits on the inside of a crank window, which is the reverse of a slider and better in two ways. From the street the opening reads as clean glass with nothing hazing it, and the mesh itself is out of the weather, out of the pollen and out of reach of a string trimmer.
The trade is that the sash occupies outdoor space while it is open. Beside a walkway, in a narrow gap between two houses, or along a shared path in a townhouse row, that becomes something people walk into. We measure the swing before specifying, and an awning unit often solves it outright by opening above head height.
Where this window earns an argument nothing else can win is a bedroom whose opening is barely legal. Because the whole sash swings clear, almost the entire hole counts as usable escape area. That routinely rescues a room a slider cannot, and it costs a great deal less than cutting the wall bigger and rebuilding around it.
Where we push back is a house full of ordinary sliders where somebody has decided cranks look smarter. You would be buying more mechanism, a higher price per hole and a service item that will eventually want attention, for a sealing improvement you will not notice. Put them where they solve something specific.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — the property maintenance code adopted by city ordinance, glazing kept free of cracks and holes, sash held in position by its own hardware, sixteen mesh per inch insect screening, sash locking devices on ground-floor rented units, deadbolts with a one-inch throw at dwelling unit doors — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Auburn and nearby communities including Opelika, Phenix City, Smiths Station, Loachapoka.

Materials, equipment and how we do casement and awning windows
The difference between casement and awning windows that lasts and casement and awning windows that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with the property maintenance code adopted by city ordinance, glazing kept free of cracks and holes, sash held in position by its own hardware, sixteen mesh per inch insect screening, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Auburn job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of window work in Lee County and east Alabama means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
