This mode opens the window in one direction and at a specific angle. The single case window is economical and can be opened horizontally or vertically. The opening of the window is connected to the window frame, which means that after closing, the window becomes maximally insulated against energy loss and pollution. Some building designers create attractive combinations by putting open and fixed louvers together, which also provides better ventilation.

This means that items such as curtains, household items, etc. should not be in the path of this opening.
