Tilt and Turn Windows

The time does not stand still and if earlier the windows had mostly standard forms and hinged sashes, the modern technologies amaze us and often puzzled with variety of choice. The modern windows differ in forms, sizes, materials of manufacturing, design of sashes and frames, methods of their opening, amount of glass and in many other parameters. When talking about a material, the metal-plastic windows are especially popular due to their convenience, practicality, integrity, durability and advanced technologies that allow to produce the plastic windows of standard rectangular and square forms, as well as almost of any extraordinary design - round, triangular, trapezoidal, arched, and other original forms. The level of modern technologies and design features of plastic windows are especially pleasing for designers and architects of all countries, allowing them to design and develop original and exquisitely buildings, applying the windows constructions of various forms and styles.

Each case and each building or room is unique and individual, but one of the key points when choosing the windows is their further ease and comfort of using, which is mostly defined by the method of opening the sashes. There are many kinds of windows: fixed, tilt, turn, sliding, lifting, folding, however the most widely used are the windows with combination of tilt and turn functionalities. They are comfortable and allow to open the window fully, to place it at the airing position, tilting the upper part, or at the micro-airing position by setting the handle under 45° angle. In each case are used the unique fasteners and fixing mechanisms. The design of windows is also varied, depending on the specific conditions and type of premises are set the single, paired, separate, double, multi-panel windows with openable transom or fixed, or without it, also quite often is applied the variant of two-panels window that consists from one passive turn panel, one active tilt and turn panel, and has no median lath.
