I can not find out which way casement windows should hinge. I am having replacement windows installed and want to do it right. I have a bay window with 3 windows being installed. The sequence of windows is : Casement Left side #1 (bay) , Picture window #2, Case window right #3 (bay).
Should Casement window #1 (left) be hindged on the right side? Or on the left side?
I will mirror this answer for casement window #3 (right side).
