Outward
opening or side hung opening are the most widely
used window design today.
Sliding
Sash are much more traditional. Sliding
sash can be supplied with or without Georgian bars.
Our pvc-u Heritage range are incredibly like timber
in appearance. The dimensions of the frame
sections are similar to those of traditional timber
windows but Heritage pvc-u frames will not warp
or rot and are fully draught stripped. They
also can be tilted once opened, for emergency escape
and to make cleaning the outside of the glass easy.
Tilt
& Turn windows are not so common in the UK as on
the continent. The frames can have larger opening
sashes than outward opening windows and are often used where
a house is designed with smaller but squarer individual
frames. Tilt & Turn windows will open inwards
from one side for easy cleaning and fire escape but for
normal ventilation open inwards from a bottom hinge point
to one position which give about 150mm (6") of ventilation.
Tilt & Turn frames are available in pvc-u only.
Curved
head and round windows can be made to special order for
any window style and from any material. We can supply
shaped sections that fit into the tops of pvc-u windows to
give them a 'cottage' window look.
Pivoting
windows have opening sashes that literally have a pivot
which allows them to turn almost inside out. They are
available in pvc-u and are very easy to clean.
