What Are Tilt And Turn Windows?

Tilt and turn windows are extremely popular throughout Europe, offering dual opening capacity that provides the same functionality as both a casement window and a hopper window. These ingenious windows allow you to open both vertically and horizontally depending on your preference, making them one of the most versatile window styles available.

Operated through a single handle, turn 90 degrees to open your window vertically or turn a full 180 degrees to open your window horizontally. By replacing your windows with the tilt and turn style, you can enjoy improved ventilation without sacrificing natural light.

Installation Choices For Tilt-Turn Windows

Full-Frame Vs Retrofitting

Full-Frame Replacement

A full-frame tilt and turn window replacement consists of removing the entire window, including the window frame, for a complete replacement. While this method is more invasive than a retrofit, it allows our window installers to check for potential issues, such as mould or rot.

Retrofit Installation

In comparison, a retrofit window replacement involves removing only the window sash while protecting the existing frame. This method is a lot less time-consuming and cost-effective, however, this installation method is only appropriate for homeowners looking to replace their window glass.

FAQs

We're Here to Answer Your Questions

How does a tilt and turn window open?

A tilt and turn window has two distinct modes of operation. It can either be opened in the tilt position, which allows you to open the top half of the window while keeping the bottom half closed, or it can be opened fully in the turn mode, allowing you to open both the top and bottom halves of the window completely.

What are the benefits of installing a tilt and turn window?

They provide excellent ventilation, allowing fresh air to enter the home while still maintaining security and privacy. They are also easy to use, with the ability to open both the top and bottom halves of the window in two distinct modes – in tilt or fully open. Additionally, they are also extremely energy efficient, helping to reduce heating costs in the winter and cooling costs in the summer. Finally, since tilt and turn windows do not require bulky hardware for operation, they have a modern aesthetic that can enhance any room's décor.

Are tilt and turn windows secure?

Yes, tilt and turn windows are very secure. They feature multiple points of locking systems that offer better security than alternative window styles.

How much maintenance is required for a tilt and turn window?

Tilt and turn windows require minimal maintenance. The occasional cleaning of the frame and glass can help to keep dirt and dust from building up, while regular lubricating of the hinges can ensure smooth operation. In addition, any damaged seals should be repaired or replaced to ensure proper insulation. All in all, tilt and turn windows are fairly low-maintenance and are designed to last for years with minimal effort.

Is there a difference between a tilt and turn window and other types of windows?

The main difference is the ability to open and close the window in two different ways - either with a tilt or a full turn. This allows for greater airflow while still keeping the security of the locking system intact. Additionally, tilt and turn windows also feature better insulation than other window types, which helps to reduce heat transfer and save energy.
