01

Operation and everyday use

This pivot window has an outward-opening sash with a lift function. When opened, the sash moves towards the outside. This direction distinguishes the product from windows whose sashes swing into the interior. In daily use, operate it deliberately and evenly; do not move the sash by the glazing, glazing bars or other components not intended for operation. The selected handle is the intended point of contact for opening and closing.

The lift function is integral to this opening type. You select the handle version separately and can coordinate its appearance with the timber species, colour and glazing-bar pattern. It is also important for everyday use that the handle is easy to reach at the intended window position. Include the sill height, nearby furniture and normal operating position in your selection early on.

Keep the movement area of the outward-opening sash clear of plants, stored items and other obstacles. Check not only the immediate window opening but also adjoining components and outdoor areas. Where several people use the window, a brief note about its outward movement helps ensure that the sash is opened and closed in a controlled manner using the handle.

When closing, guide the sash to the frame in a controlled way and operate it using the handle. Avoid loading the glazing bars or glass surfaces by pulling or pushing on them. Visible dirt on the frame, handle and glass can be removed using a method suitable for the relevant surface. Care for the selected timber finish, colour or aluminium cladding should always follow the version actually ordered.

For difficult-to-reach installation positions, check future operation during planning. What matters is that the handle remains safely accessible and the sash can be moved in a controlled way. Describe a high sill, deep reveal, fixed built-in elements or other special features in your enquiry so the intended use can be considered from the outset.

Construction, component dimensions and technical details

The outer frame measures 105 × 57 mm. With aluminium cladding, it measures 115 × 57 mm. The sash frame measures 76 × 65 mm; with aluminium cladding, it measures 86 × 65 mm. These are component dimensions for the stated frame profiles. They must not be treated generally as the depth, width or height of the complete window opening. The finished window size is made to measure for your project.

The installation holes have a diameter of 14 mm, and SPILKA components are specified as fittings. Always consider the installation holes and frame profiles together with the existing wall build-up, junctions and planned fixings. For your enquiry, it is particularly important to distinguish clearly between the structural opening size, the required window size and the component dimensions stated here.

The glazing is available as a double- or triple-glazed insulated glass unit. Its construction includes a heat-reflective coating, a CHR warm-edge spacer and argon gas. Black rubber seals are used as glazing seals. State the required glass construction separately in your enquiry so it can be linked clearly with the rest of the configuration.

The pivot window comes with a 5-year manufacturer guarantee and is CE marked. In your enquiry, clearly state the required overall size, material version, any aluminium cladding, glazing and design. Add information about the installation position and relevant building requirements so the configuration can be compiled clearly for each position.

Available materials are pine, pine with aluminium cladding, oak and oak with aluminium cladding. In clad versions, the selected timber remains the basis of the material combination and is complemented by aluminium cladding. Note the differing profile dimensions: outer and sash frames with aluminium cladding have the respective dimensions explicitly assigned above.

05

Assessing the intended opening correctly

As the sash opens outwards, the area in front of the window forms part of the planning. Check reveals, railings, planting, sills and regularly stored items there. The free movement space required depends on the planned window size and specific installation position. Therefore, document potential obstacles together with the dimensions of the intended opening.

Record the dimensions of the intended structural opening clearly and distinguish them from the profile dimensions of individual components. A wall opening is not the same as an outer-frame or sash-frame profile. Also establish whether the opening is square and even, and whether existing junctions, cladding or window sills must be considered. The measurement points needed for your project depend on the building situation.

The interior side also remains important for everyday use, even though the sash moves outwards. Check whether the handle is easily accessible from the normal operating position and whether furniture, worktops, a deep reveal or fixed built-in elements make access difficult. This information is especially helpful for high sills or unusual installation situations and should be included in the project description.

For a refurbishment, it can be helpful to document the existing opening, wall construction and existing junction details separately. For a new build, the planned structural opening dimensions and intended window position should be clearly identified. Photos can provide useful context for an enquiry, but do not replace measurements. Ensure all details refer to the same opening, particularly when several windows are planned.

For made-to-measure production, the window is assembled for your project based on the agreed dimensions. Before sending an enquiry, therefore check what each measurement refers to and assign every detail clearly to the relevant opening. Structural opening dimensions, installation position, outside movement area and handle accessibility together provide a sound basis for further product selection.

Material, colour and visual composition

The material choice shapes the frame and therefore a substantial part of the window’s visible effect. Pine and oak are available, with both timber types also offered with aluminium cladding. First decide which timber suits your project, then whether you prefer the all-timber version or the corresponding combination with aluminium cladding.

You can also choose a colour and coordinate it with façade surfaces, neighbouring windows or the intended interior effect. Always state the colour in your enquiry together with the exact material version. Surface, light and adjoining materials influence perception, so colour is best assessed in relation to timber type, aluminium cladding, glazing-bar pattern and handle.

The glazing-bar pattern is another defining part of the composition. Without glazing bars, the glass surface appears more continuous. Horizontal bars echo level lines, vertical bars emphasise an upright division, and combined patterns create a clearer grid. All offered variants relate to the single sash of the outward-opening pivot window.

The handle is also part of the visible arrangement and can be selected together with the colour, timber type and glazing-bar pattern. Alongside appearance, consider access at the intended installation position. The structural SPILKA fittings and selectable handle version are separate elements of your product configuration.

For a calm overall appearance, it can be useful to establish a few clear reference points, such as the lines of neighbouring windows and a recurring frame colour. In a more divided design, a glazing-bar pattern can deliberately pick up façade axes. These examples help organise decisions; they are not design rules. Your desired combination of material, cladding, colour, handle, glass and glazing bars remains decisive.

Compare the pivot window with related product types

Our related selection includes outward-opening casement windows and single-leaf patio doors alongside this pivot window. For an initial comparison, decide whether you are planning a window or a walk-through entrance, and which opening type suits your project. Then compare the sash count, material, glazing and available design variants for each product.

The related casement windows are available in single- and double-sash versions. Standard versions come in pine or oak, each also with aluminium cladding. There are also historic-style products in pine or oak. When choosing between these window types, compare the required sash count and material version above all with the existing façade division.

The related “Kombi” casement windows combine a fixed glazed section with an opening sash and offer several fixed glazing-bar patterns. Here too, there is a standard version with optional aluminium cladding and a historic-style version in pine or oak. This product group is useful for comparison when your plan needs both a moveable sash and an additional fixed glazed area.

For access to a terrace, consider the related single-leaf outward-opening patio doors. Depending on the version, designs with glazing, glazing bars and panels are available. The standard version is offered in pine and oak, each also with aluminium cladding; the historic-style version is available in pine or oak. Consider these door products separately where a passage is required rather than a window opening alone.

The following related selection lets you open the named product types and check their details separately: Single-sash outward-opening casement window, Single-sash historic-style outward-opening casement window, Double-sash outward-opening casement window, Double-sash historic-style outward-opening casement window, Outward-opening “Kombi” casement window, Historic-style outward-opening “Kombi” casement window, Single-leaf outward-opening patio door, Historic-style single-leaf outward-opening patio door.

Prepare your enquiry step by step

Start with a clear project reference. Note the room, building section or window position to which the enquiry relates. If several openings are planned, use easy-to-understand labels so dimensions and design preferences are not mixed up. Then record the overall dimensions obtained and state what each measurement refers to.

Next, select the material version: pine, pine with aluminium cladding, oak or oak with aluminium cladding. Add your preferred colour. If your decision is not final, describe the effect you prefer, but clearly distinguish between a preference and an option already selected.

In the next step, specify the glass construction from within the available glazing options. List this separately so it does not need to be inferred from the material or glazing-bar pattern. Then choose the exact designation of the required glazing-bar pattern. For a version without bars, state that designation explicitly rather than leaving the field blank.

Then add your handle selection and coordinate it with the frame colour, material and glazing-bar pattern. Record the handle preference as a separate choice; SPILKA fittings form part of the window construction. Also describe features affecting everyday use, such as a high sill, deep reveal or fixed built-in elements that can influence access to the handle.

Finally, check that your enquiry includes the product name, position label, dimensions, material, any aluminium cladding, colour, glazing, glazing-bar pattern and handle preference. Add relevant information about the installation situation without assuming technical properties yourself. An orderly brief makes follow-up questions more focused and helps us understand your desired configuration clearly. This turns individual choices into a traceable enquiry for your made-to-measure pivot window.
