01

Operation and everyday use

The defining feature is the movement of its single sash around a vertical pivot axis. Rather than operating like a conventional side-hung sash, it turns as it opens outwards. In everyday planning, this intended movement needs to be considered from the outset. This is not an unspecified opening system: it is a clearly identified window type with one sash and a vertical pivot axis.

The handle is one of the details you select for the chosen configuration. Consider it as both an operating component and a visible part of the window. A suitable handle design depends on the intended internal view, material and frame colour. Hardware includes components from SPILKA and IPA; nominate your handle choice separately in the enquiry.

Smooth, controlled operation is sensible in normal use. Move the sash using its intended handle; do not pull it by the glazing bars, glass or frame sections. Keep objects out of its travel path, and use suitable care products on seals and coated or clad surfaces. Care guidance should always match the ordered material version, as timber and aluminium-clad surfaces may differ.

Where more than one person uses the window, consistent operation via the intended handle is advisable. Leave the outward-opening sash’s movement zone clear, and allow for its turning action around external components or objects. This helps the single-sash vertical-pivot window remain suited to its planned location over time.

02

Construction and component dimensions at a glance

All numerical product specifications are collected here. The outer frame component measures 105 × 57 mm. With aluminium cladding, the corresponding component measure is 115 × 57 mm. The sash frame component measures 76 × 65 mm; with aluminium cladding it is 86 × 65 mm. These figures identify individual frame components. They are not the depth, width and height of the complete window, nor do they replace order dimensions for your project.

Fixing holes are specified at 14 mm diameter. This measurement applies only to the holes and must not be confused with order dimensions or the building opening. Choose either double- or triple-insulating glass. The window is CE marked and is offered with a five-year warranty.

Frame material options are pine, pine with aluminium cladding, oak, and oak with aluminium cladding. Cladding changes the stated component dimensions of the outer and sash frames. For that reason, the enquiry should clearly state whether you want timber only or an aluminium-clad version. Record the material decision with the order dimensions as part of the exact product configuration.

Hardware includes SPILKA and IPA components, while the handle is selected for your configuration. The glass seals are black rubber. For the intended appearance, coordinate the material, any aluminium cladding, colour, glazing and glazing-bar design. This brings the visible design features together while hardware and seals perform their respective roles within the window construction.

05

Assessing the proposed opening correctly

As this window is made to measure, a dependable enquiry starts with assessing the proposed building opening. Do not rely on a single measurement; check the opening in several places. Variations in existing construction can matter to planning. Label order dimensions clearly so each figure has an unambiguous reference. Outer- and sash-frame component dimensions must not be used instead of wall-opening measurements.

Also allow for the sash opening outwards and turning on a vertical axis. Its external movement and clearance area must suit the installation. Façade projections, reveals, balustrades, external shading, plants or other components can affect the usable space. These are project checks, not statements that any particular setting is generally suitable. The actual spatial conditions on site are decisive.

Review the intended operating position from inside as well. The handle should be sensibly accessible in use, and the window arrangement should work with the planned furniture and room use. This does not prescribe an installation height; that must be determined for the individual project. Where sills, worktops or other components adjoin, include them in your sketch so the window position is clear.

For new builds, drawing dimensions can be a suitable starting point. For existing buildings, carefully survey the actual condition. If unsure, have the installation situation checked by a qualified professional. Make clear whether your figures are opening dimensions, window dimensions or other reference values. A simple labelled sketch can show the axis position, inside and outside, and adjoining components without guessing technical details.

Material, colour and visual composition

Material selection shapes the window’s appearance in detail and in relation to the façade. Choose pine or oak; both timbers are also available with aluminium cladding. This is more than choosing a material name: it determines the visual composition of the frame surfaces. State aluminium cladding expressly in the enquiry because it is a separate version.

You can also choose the colour. Identify the desired shade as clearly as possible in the enquiry, coordinating it with the material, aluminium cladding and glazing-bar pattern. Consider its relationship with the façade, roof, doors and other windows. This lets you plan either a restrained overall result or use the window as a deliberate design accent.

The glazing-bar design also affects proportion. Open glass emphasises a continuous surface, whereas horizontal and vertical lines organise the view. Together with colour and material, the same window can therefore appear calmer or more structured. Select these features as one composition: decide on the desired frame effect, then the glass division, followed by a handle that fits the arrangement.

When selecting materials, distinguish between an all-timber version and pine or oak with aluminium cladding. Record that choice explicitly, because clad versions have different outer- and sash-frame component dimensions. Add the desired colour, then consider it with the glazing, bar design and handle. This creates a clearly defined material and colour composition for your window.

Where the window sits beside other opening elements, recurring lines can support a unified appearance. Compare glazing-bar heights, frame effect and colour direction for the individual project, however; automatic matching with other product types is not guaranteed. Record intended design relationships in a short description or sketch instead of assuming similar product names produce identical appearances.

Placing related window types and doors

Opening style is the most important comparison point between related windows. This model has one outward-opening sash on a vertical pivot axis. The range also includes single- and double-sash inward-opening windows with tilt function. They suit different operating and room situations, so they should not be selected solely because the frame or glazing appearance looks similar.

For projects requiring an EI30 product classification, separate fire-rated windows are available. These include an inward-opening oak version and an outward-opening oak fire-rated swing window, each with double insulating glass and a heat-reflective coating. That classification belongs only to the expressly identified products, not to the pivot window presented here.

Another option is the outward-opening passive-house window, Super Low Uw. It uses pine with a special insulating material and triple insulating glass with heat-reflective coating, warm edge and argon-gas filling. For larger or divided arrangements, consider the combination window, whose precise configuration is set for the individual project.

If a low-level opening element is planned, related single-sash patio doors can be a suitable comparison group. A standard and a historic-style version are offered, both opening outwards. Depending on the chosen design, glazing, glazing bars and a panel are included. Windows and patio doors remain separate products, with dimensions, materials and construction selected individually.

The associated products and their full catalogue names appear below. First compare opening direction, sash number and product type, then review material, glazing and available design variations. This makes it easier to decide whether the single-sash pivot window, an inward-opening window, a specialist version, a combination window or a patio door better suits your plans.

Prepare your enquiry in a few steps

Start by naming the product clearly: single-sash, outward-opening pivot window with a vertical pivot axis. Then add carefully recorded measurements and identify what they refer to. A simple sketch showing inside and outside can prevent misunderstandings. If the opening is irregular or the connection detail is complex, describe this briefly and arrange a qualified assessment where needed.

Next, decide on the material. Note pine or oak and state explicitly whether aluminium cladding is required. Add your preferred colour without relying only on broad terms such as light or dark. If you already have an unambiguous colour designation, use it in the discussion. This keeps the required frame appearance clear from the beginning.

Next, choose the glazing construction and use the full name of your preferred glazing-bar design; exact wording matters particularly for glass-dividing versions. Add the handle as a separate item. SPILKA and IPA should not be treated as selectable brands, because their inclusion only identifies hardware components.

Finally, check whether adjoining windows or doors should be included in the design. Describe desired reference lines or a shared colour direction, then summarise the selection clearly: product name, dimension with a clear reference, material, aluminium cladding, colour, double or triple glazing, full glazing-bar design name and handle. Add relevant features of the opening or adjoining components. A well-structured enquiry provides a sound basis for discussing your made-to-measure pivot window.

Is the pivot window available made to measure?

Yes. This window is offered made to measure. For an enquiry, we need clear information about the proposed opening. As building situations differ, take measurements carefully and have them checked by a qualified person where necessary.

Which materials can I choose?

Choose pine, pine with aluminium cladding, oak, or oak with aluminium cladding. The appropriate version depends, among other things, on the material effect you want and the planned building design.

Can I choose a window colour?

Yes, colour selection is one of the available configuration choices. Coordinate the preferred shade with the material and any aluminium cladding, because these features together determine the window’s overall visual impression.

Is there a choice of handles?

Yes. Alongside dimensions, colour and other configuration details, you can select a handle. Include your preferred handle in the enquiry so it can be considered as a separate part of the requested product configuration.

What glazing is available for the pivot window?

Choose double or triple insulating glass. Both glass constructions include a heat-reflective coating, CHR warm edge and argon-gas filling. Include the preferred version with the dimensions, material and glazing-bar design in your enquiry.

Is the window CE marked?

The window is CE marked, a confirmed product feature. If your project requires particular documents or information, identify them in the enquiry so the need is clear. Check separately which requirements apply to the Australian project.

How long does the warranty last?

The commercial warranty is five years. Keep your order information and follow the supplied use-and-care guidance so the product version and order remain identifiable. It does not exclude rights under Australian Consumer Law.

What details should I have ready for an enquiry?

Useful details include the proposed opening dimensions, preferred material, decision on aluminium cladding, colour, glazing-bar design, glazing and handle. Add any particular features of the installation situation as clearly as possible.
