What Are Tilt and Turn Windows?

Tilt and turn windows are an ideal choice for properties in areas where outward-opening windows may not be practical. They are particularly well-suited to ground floor flats or where windows are located alongside streets or pathways. They’re an alternative to casement windows and, like casement frames, can also be combined to create bay and bow windows to add architectural appeal to a home.

An excellent choice if you are looking to maximise natural light, tilt and turn windows feature two handle-activated opening positions. In the ‘turn’ position, the entire window panel swings inward on side hinges, in a similar way to a door; in the ’tilt’ position, the window light swings on a middle axis, providing ventilation at the top and bottom of the unit.

Also known as ‘continental-style’ windows, they are a popular choice for homes, apartments, and offices throughout Suffolk and Essex, combining style and functionality to brighten and ventilate your living or working space.

Tilt and turn windows are a type of window that can be opened in two ways: by tilting inwards at the top for controlled ventilation or by turning fully inward like a door for easy cleaning and maximum airflow. They operate using a handle-activated mechanism.

This window is really versatile and suitable for various types of properties, including homes, apartments, and offices. They are available in standard and flush-fit styling, in both aluminium and UPVC frame materials.

They can be integrated into both contemporary and traditional architecture, and are adaptable to different room sizes and layouts.

Yes, they’re known for their energy efficiency. Sealed properly and equipped with energy-efficient glazing, they can help reduce heating and cooling costs by providing an effective barrier against drafts and temperature fluctuations.

Yes, tilt and turn windows can be configured to serve as fire escape windows. For this they must be fitted with appropriate hardware such as restrictor hinges.

In the ‘turn’ position, the window can open fully inward like a small door, providing an unrestricted opening and means of safe exit in the case of emergencies.

Tilt and turn windows are designed with easy cleaning from the inside in mind.

When in the ‘turn’ position, there is access to both the interior and exterior window surfaces – even the traditionally difficult to reach areas of the window – without the need for specialised equipment.

This key feature really makes light of window cleaning and simplifies maintenance tasks.
