Using the window day to day

Outward rotation is the window’s defining action. Each sash turns on a vertical axis and travels away from the interior rather than into the room. Account for that direction when choosing the location as well as whenever the window is operated.

Opening and closing are controlled through the chosen handle. Handle options can be specified with the frame material, colour and layout. Because the handle is both visible and regularly touched, assess its appearance and ease of use together instead of leaving that decision until the end.

Guide a sash steadily through its travel using the handle. Do not pull on the glass, glazing bars or frame. Check the swing path before closing, bring the sash completely into position, and then set the handle as intended. This keeps the operating load on the components designed for it rather than on decorative or glazed parts.

Relate the controls to the real installation height and surroundings. Reach may need particular attention when the opening is unusually high or low, sits beyond a deep counter, or will be used by several people. Record these considerations on an opening sketch so handle access and the exterior swing can be reviewed together.

02

Frame sections, fittings and key specifications

The outer frame section is 105 × 57 mm; with aluminium cladding, it is 115 × 57 mm. The sash section is 76 × 65 mm in timber and 86 × 65 mm in the clad version. All four figures describe individual frame components, not the finished window’s overall width, overall height or installation depth.

Mounting holes are specified as 14 mm. Custom overall dimensions are established separately from the measurements of the intended opening. SPILKA and IPA fittings are used, but selecting one of those hardware brands is not a buyer option. You can specify the handle together with size, material, finish colour, glass and layout; note any reach or appearance priorities in the same enquiry.

The glass assembly may contain 2 panes or 3 panes. In either case, it incorporates a heat-reflective coating, CHR warm-edge construction and argon fill. Black rubber provides the glazing seals. Frame choices are pine or oak, in unclad form or with aluminium cladding.

The product carries CE marking and a 5-year warranty. Those established characteristics belong in the product record, while overall dimensions, layout, timber, glass, colour and handle still need to be selected for the project. Separating fixed specifications from requested choices will make the proposed version easier to understand.

05

Reading the opening before ordering

Custom fabrication should begin with a careful survey of the existing or planned opening. Take readings in several places, retain any differences, and label the measured edges on a drawing. This helps keep the rough opening, visible adjoining surfaces and proposed window position distinct.

Include the construction around the opening, not just its width and height. Record the reveals, sill, cladding and every immediately adjoining element. For replacement work, photographs can show how the existing parts meet; for new construction, a plan or clearly annotated detail can locate the opening in the wall. Determine the ordering dimensions from that installation context rather than calculating them from the listed frame sections.

The rotating sashes require unobstructed space on the exterior side. Survey railings, exterior shading, deep reveals, projecting covers, plants and other built elements that could enter the travel area. Also note whether the window borders a circulation or sitting space. No generic clearance should be assumed; assess the surroundings of the actual proposed swing.

Map the normal approach to the handle as well. Reaching across a deep counter differs from operating a window in an open stretch of wall. Although this does not alter the window specification, it may affect placement and handle preference. Flag any unusual access arrangement while the request is being developed.

Give every measurement, photograph and sketch a clear label. Indicate whether it represents an existing condition or a future assembly, and identify values that remain provisional. A well-ordered package connects the custom window to its selected layout and makes unresolved details easier to discuss.

06

Bringing material, colour and layout together

Frame material, finish colour, glass, glazing bars and the broad arrangement collectively establish the visible result. Pine and oak are the available timber species, and either may be paired with aluminium cladding. State the cladding choice expressly because it changes the material build-up from the timber-only version.

A finish colour can be selected. Supply an unambiguous colour reference or connect the request to an existing design palette. Review that colour beside the nominated timber or cladding, glazing-bar scheme and handle so the surface treatment belongs to one coherent window specification.

Start the visual planning with the large-scale arrangement: paired opening sashes alone, or those sashes accompanied by a fixed lite. The glazing-bar choice follows. Undivided panes retain broader fields of glass; horizontal lines and grid-like combinations organize those fields differently. These observations help with design selection but do not add characteristics to the product.

Though modest in scale, the handle remains conspicuous through frequent use. Match the requested handle to the frame finish, material build-up and glazing-bar scheme. Describe both the desired look and any reach concern so operation and appearance are addressed at the same planning stage.

The black seals belong to the junction around the glass, yet that single detail does not define the window’s visible perimeter. Evaluate the timber, aluminium cladding, selected colour, pane arrangement, glazing bars and handle as a complete composition rather than judging the result from the gasket colour alone.

Related products for other functions

Where an interior swing is more appropriate, review the corresponding twin-sash inward-opening window with tilt operation. Its frame can be pine or oak, with unclad and aluminium-clad versions, and its insulated glass can contain 2 panes or 3 panes. The principal distinctions are the inward direction and added tilt setting.

Two separate products address projects calling for EI30 classification: an inward-opening model with tilt-and-turn sashes and an outward-pivoting fire-rated model. Both use oak frames and 2-pane insulated glass with a heat-reflective coating. Confirm the required EI30 classification and operating direction against the needs of the particular project.

The outward-pivoting Super Low Uw passive-house window combines pine, a pivot sash, a specialized insulating material and 3-pane insulated glass. The combination window serves a different purpose, offering several barred or unbarred compositions in pine, oak or aluminium-clad versions of either timber. Consider these alternatives when glass construction, material strategy or the window arrangement drives the choice.

For glazing that will remain closed, review the non-operable fixed window. If the opening must instead provide passage to a patio, compare the outward-opening single-sash patio door with its historical-style variation. Both doors offer 2-pane and 3-pane insulated glass plus a selection of glazing-bar or panel treatments; aluminium cladding is additionally offered on the standard patio door.

Sort the related products by their intended action before comparing finishes: interior swing, exterior swing, tilt operation, permanently fixed glass, a combination arrangement or a patio entrance. You can then narrow the choice by material, glass assembly and visual treatment. The linked product records provide the specifications for each alternative.

Building a complete enquiry

First document the installation setting. Assemble the opening measurements, an annotated sketch and photographs that show useful context. Specify whether the work is a replacement or new construction, and describe notable junctions and the intended position within the wall.

Next select the broad arrangement. Cite the complete catalogue layout rather than giving only a general description of the bars. Make clear whether the request is for 2 opening sashes by themselves or for the listed version that also has a fixed lite. A simple elevation can clarify every horizontal and vertical division.

Then name the frame build-up: pine, oak, aluminium-clad pine or aluminium-clad oak. Add an exact colour reference, the required pane count and the preferred handle. Briefly record visual priorities, including any intended relationship with neighbouring windows.

Before sending the request, verify that the details agree with one another and that every item is labelled. Keep confirmed measurements separate from estimates and list questions still awaiting an answer. Highlight essential requirements such as swing direction, catalogue layout, handle access and alignment with adjoining elements.

Send that concise project file with your contact information. We can organize the supplied details and discuss the selections that remain open. The result is a specific, traceable request for the twin-sash vertical-axis pivot window rather than a general product idea.

Can its overall dimensions be customized?

Yes. Custom sizing is one of the available choices. Supply carefully surveyed opening measurements and describe the adjoining construction and connections so the request can be assessed clearly.

What direction do the sashes travel?

They move toward the exterior, rotating around vertical axes. Review the actual opening and everything around it to determine how that travel will work in the proposed location.

What frame constructions can I request?

The choices are pine and oak, each offered either as timber alone or with aluminium cladding. Name the complete material build-up so it can be matched with the other requested details.

Is the finish colour selectable?

Yes. Provide the desired shade or an exact colour reference together with the pine, oak or aluminium-clad frame choice. This allows the finish, glazing bars and handle to be evaluated as a coordinated design.

What glass assemblies are offered?

You can request insulated glass with 2 panes or 3 panes. Both versions use heat-reflective coated glass, warm-edge construction and argon fill. Base the selection on the stated needs of the individual project.

Can the layout include glazing bars or a fixed lite?

Yes. The catalogue covers paired opening sashes on their own as well as compositions that add a fixed lite. The panes may remain undivided or use one of the listed horizontal and vertical glazing-bar schemes.

What warranty period applies to this window?

This twin-sash pivot window has a 5-year product warranty. The enquiry should still identify the dimensions, frame construction, glass, layout, colour and handle needed for the intended version.

Which details belong in my request?

Record the opening measurements, catalogue layout, frame material, pane configuration, finish colour and handle preference. Add a labelled drawing, photographs and notes about nearby components that could affect installation or the exterior swing.
