"Expect to pay more for a casement when compared to a double-hung. This is because of the mechanical operation and subsequent hardware requirements. Of course, the tighter seal caused by the mechanical operation will make a casement window more energy efficient than a double hung or slider/glider. And, while some will argue this point, a casement window with a multi-point locking system will generally be harder to break through, making the house more secure."
