Tilt and turn windows (as well as tilt only windows) are inward opening windows providing an excellent way to take advantage of natural ventilation without sacrificing security.

Tilt and turn windows are stylish and versatile, allowing the window to open in two ways. Just by turning the handle, you can choose the position that you prefer the window to operate in.

When the handle is turned horizontal (90 deg from the locked position), the window will open in turn, allowing the window to swing inward providing access for maintenance, easy cleaning, flyscreen installation/removal and quick ventilation.

If the handle is turned vertical (180 deg from the locked position), the window will open in tilt position allowing the window to tilt at the top into the natural ventilation position, facilitating the warm air to escape and be replaced by fresh air. When the window is used in tilt, it offers enhanced security allowing you to have a window open without worrying that a child or pet can escape.

Tilt Only windows (sometimes known as hopper windows) are hinged at the base to allow them to lean inwards at the top. Tilt only windows are ideal in providing a practical, safe and secure ventilation solution, with minimum living space interference, for wide opening windows with relatively low heights.

Often referred to as European style, these windows are perfect for Melbourne, VIC, Canberra, ACT and NSW areas and are available with frames in several attractive colours to further enhance the beauty of your home. When choosing your double-glazed uPVC tilt and turn windows, just ask our highly professional and knowledgeable staff about the accessories and flyscreens available so you’ll maximise the benefits beyond just the additional functionality they provide.
