Tilt and turn windows

 A tilt and turn window is a window that can be opened in two ways: tilting or turning: 

• Tilting the top of the window sash opens inwards to allow ventilation while remaining secure and shielding from rain. 
• Turning the window swings open inwards from hinges on the side. This allows the window to be opened fully for cleaning or as an emergency exit. 

• Tilt and turn windows are available in a variety of colours similar to our uPVC casement windows, allowing homeowners to choose a style that complements their building's architecture.
• Their clean, modern look can enhance the aesthetic appeal of a home, whether it's contemporary or traditional.

Similar to Casement windows Tilt and turn windows achieve low U-values, which means they provide excellent thermal efficiency. The closing mechanism creates a tight seal that minimizes heat loss in the winter and prevents heat gain in the summer. 

Tilt and turn windows are considered one of the most secure window styles, as they use strong hardware and multi-point locking systems. 

The tilt function offers a secure way to let in fresh air without worrying about intruders. This makes them particularly useful in bedrooms or upper-story rooms where safety is a concern

 Like all uPVC Windows the smooth, non-porous surface of uPVC makes it easy to clean and maintain, requiring only occasional wiping with soapy water to keep it looking new. With the mechanical parts such as the hinges needing oiling once every six month to ensure the smooth movement and locking of the window. 

The turn feature allows the window to swing inward, making both the inside and outside of the window easily accessible for cleaning, even on upper floors.

This is particularly helpful for homes with hard-to-reach windows or buildings with large windows.

Overall, tilt and turn windows combine practical benefits with aesthetic appeal, offering versatility, energy efficiency, and ease of use that make them a worthwhile investment for many homeowners.
