Sizing & cost guide
Casement Window Sizes & Costs (2026 Chart)
Why casement widths are limited
Unlike a double-hung that slides up and down, a casement swings outward like a door. That hinge is the constraint: a very wide single sash would sag, catch wind like a sail, and strain the crank hardware. So manufacturers keep single casements under roughly three feet wide. Need a wider opening? You combine two or more sashes in one frame — which changes the price.
A casement isn't sized like a slider. It's sized like a door that has to hold itself open in the wind.
Standard casement size chart
These are common standard sizes offered by major manufacturers. Exact call-out numbers vary by brand, but the ranges below cover most replacement situations (source: manufacturer size catalogs, 2026).
| Size class | Width | Height | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Narrow single | 1'2" – 1'9" | 2'5" – 4'0" | Bathrooms, tight walls |
| Standard single | 2'0" – 2'5" | 3'0" – 5'0" | Bedrooms, living rooms |
| Wide single | 2'6" – 2'11" | 4'0" – 6'0" | Main rooms, egress |
| Double (2-sash) | 4'0" – 6'0" | up to 6'5" | Picture-window openings |

Price scales with size, material, and glass. A narrow bathroom casement in vinyl sits at the low end; a wide fiberglass egress casement with triple-pane glass sits well above it. The figures below are installed ranges for 2026, covering the unit plus standard labor.
The money-saving rule: match a standard size
If your existing opening is close to a standard size, a good installer can often adjust the frame slightly to hit it — saving you the custom premium.
