01

Operation and everyday use

With this window type, the single sash swings outwards when opened. Its direction of movement is therefore clear and can be allowed for at an early design stage. In everyday use, take this outward movement into account. Open and close the sash in a controlled way using the handle, guiding it steadily rather than allowing it to swing freely. Careful handling helps protect the window, its fittings and seals.

Because the sash swings outwards, keep its movement area clear. This is especially important where planters, decorations or other movable items are placed directly in front of the window. Also allow for nearby sills, cladding and projecting building elements. When ventilating, closing or cleaning, keep the opening direction in mind and guide the sash carefully.

The handle is one of the selectable parts of your order and will be used regularly. Coordinate its design with the frame material, colour and glazing-bar layout, and include your handle preference in the configuration summary. SPILKA and IPA fittings are specified for the window construction. Handle, fittings and sash operate as a functional unit and should be considered together when specifying the window.

Before closing, check that the sash can meet the frame without anything caught between them. Remove obstacles from the swing area and use the handle without unnecessary force. Keep accessible frame and sash surfaces free from coarse dirt. Everyday operation remains straightforward: use the handle, guide the sash steadily and keep the immediate movement area clear.

02

Construction, components and technical dimensions

The window comprises an outer frame and a single sash frame. The stated dimensions apply specifically to these components and are not the overall dimensions of the complete window. The outer-frame section is 105 × 57 mm. With aluminium cladding, the outer frame is 115 × 57 mm. The sash frame is 76 × 65 mm; with aluminium cladding it is 86 × 65 mm. Installation holes are specified at 14 mm. These values describe the respective components and must not be interpreted as the depth, width or height of the ordered window.

Choose either a double-glazed or triple-glazed insulating glass unit. The product is CE marked and carries a 5-year warranty. SPILKA and IPA fittings are specified. They form part of the window construction, while your enquiry can also define the preferred handle design. Record the handle alongside the material, colour, glazing and glazing-bar layout as part of your configuration.

Choose between pine and oak timber. Both timber species are also available with aluminium cladding. This provides all-timber versions as well as versions with aluminium cladding. As the cladding also changes the stated component dimensions, identify it clearly in your enquiry from the outset.

When sharing technical information for planning or coordination, use the component names together with their relevant values. This makes clear whether you mean the outer frame, sash frame or installation holes. Final window dimensions do not result from simply adding the section sizes; they must be set to suit the requested made-to-measure window and the intended opening.

05

Assessing the proposed opening carefully

A made-to-measure window starts with a clear description of the intended opening. Do not take only one measurement; check the situation at several points. Building openings can vary in ways that are not immediately visible. Note where you measured and record any features of the reveals, junctions and adjoining surfaces. The measured opening dimensions must be distinguished from the component sections given in the construction section.

When assessing the opening, remember that the sash moves outwards. The clear movement space required depends on the particular window version and installation situation, and should be considered for the project. External building elements, balustrades, railings, cladding, sills or permanently positioned objects may all be relevant. Roof overhangs and other projecting features also deserve attention where they are close to the swing area.

Also consider how the frame is to connect to surrounding building elements. The installation situation can affect which details are needed for your enquiry. An internal view, external view and a simple section sketch can help make the description easy to understand. Photos are useful where they show the opening unobstructed and indicate scale, but they do not replace carefully recorded measurements.

If you are unsure, identify open points clearly rather than entering assumptions as fixed requirements. Keep existing opening dimensions, desired overall window dimensions and known connection requirements separate. This avoids a component dimension being used accidentally as an order size. A well-structured survey creates a sound basis for discussion without pre-empting project-specific assessment.

Material, colour and visual composition

Pine and oak provide two distinct timber bases for the design. Both are available with or without aluminium cladding. Decide on this fundamental material version before coordinating the colour, handle and glazing-bar layout. This allows the individual design choices to be brought together in one clearly specified finish.

A choice of colours is available. This lets you relate the window to the façade, adjoining elements or the interior scheme. A calm, similar shade can blend the window more closely into its surroundings, while a deliberate contrast can highlight its outline or glazing-bar layout. Such effects depend on the project, lighting and surrounding materials; they are not fixed product properties.

Do not consider colour entirely separately from the material. Timber surfaces and aluminium-clad areas can appear different, even where they belong to one coordinated scheme. The handle also contributes to the overall look. It can relate quietly to the frame or be treated as a deliberate detail. Record the exact handle choice together with the colour specification in your enquiry.

The glazing-bar layout provides the graphic layer of the composition. A version without glazing bars looks different from one with horizontal, vertical or crossing lines. Coordinate this arrangement with neighbouring windows and doors where a coherent appearance is wanted. Include the timber species, aluminium cladding, window colour and handle in that assessment. Material or colour samples and a façade sketch can support comparison, while light, surroundings and viewing distance influence the final impression.

07

Considering related product types

For projects with different openings, it is worth comparing related product types. A double-sash version has a different sash arrangement from this single-sash side-hung window, although both categories are available as outward-opening designs. The standard double-sash version is offered in pine or oak, each also with aluminium cladding. The historic-style double-sash version is available in pine and oak. Both product types are offered with double-glazed or triple-glazed insulating glass units and different glazing-bar layouts.

Combination versions join a fixed-glazed section with one sash. Several designs are specified, without glazing bars and with horizontal or vertical glazing bars. The standard combination version is available in pine or oak, each also with aluminium cladding. Historic-style products are available in pine and oak, but not with aluminium cladding. These material differences are particularly relevant where several windows on a façade are intended to share one surface concept.

Separate window categories are also available for other installation areas. The roof pivot window is described with a bottom-mounted operating handle, pine with aluminium cladding and double-glazed insulating glass. The single-sash pivot window has a vertical pivot axis and opens outwards; it is available in pine or oak, with or without aluminium cladding, and with a double-glazed or triple-glazed insulating glass unit. Compare opening type, material and glazing as well as appearance.

Single-sash patio doors are another related product group. They also open outwards and are available with double-pane or triple-pane insulating glass; depending on the version, a panel may be included. The standard version is offered in pine and oak, as well as versions with aluminium cladding, while the historic-style version is limited to pine or oak. SPILKA and ASSA fittings with 3-point locking are specified. Use the following product links to explore the respective versions and available designs.

Preparing your enquiry in a few steps

Start with the product identity: note that you are requesting a single-sash, outward-opening side-hung window. Then add the required dimensions and state clearly whether these are measurements of the existing opening or already defined overall window dimensions. A small labelled sketch can prevent misunderstandings and show from which viewing direction your information should be read.

Then specify the material. Choose pine or oak and state whether aluminium cladding is required. Add your preferred colour using a clear colour description where possible. If you want a particular handle, include it in the same configuration summary. This keeps material, surface finish and operating detail clearly connected as related decisions.

Next, choose the glazing-bar layout from the available designs. Use its full description so the number and direction of horizontal and vertical glazing bars remain unambiguous. Also state whether you want a double-glazed or triple-glazed insulating glass unit. If a particular line arrangement or coordination with existing windows is important, add a labelled elevation sketch. This makes the glazing-bar layout, glazing and design aim clear at a glance.

Finally, summarise project-specific notes. These may include the installation situation, adjoining elements or a coordinated design with further windows and doors. Organise photos and drawings so every file is clearly labelled. Before sending, check that the product name, dimensions, material, cladding, colour, handle, glazing-bar layout and glazing are included. This compact sequence supports shared understanding and allows follow-up questions to focus on decisions still open.

Is the window available made to measure?

Yes. The window can be requested in made-to-measure dimensions. Provide carefully measured dimensions for the intended opening. Details of the installation situation are also helpful, so your enquiry can be clearly identified and discussed.

Can I choose the window colour?

Yes, colour selection is one of the available purchase choices. Coordinate the preferred shade with the façade, interior, material and any existing building elements. Include the precise colour specification in your enquiry.

Can I choose a handle?

Yes, handle selection is one of the available configuration options. Tell us your handle preference along with the material, colour, glazing and glazing-bar layout. SPILKA and IPA fittings are specified for the window construction; the handle is coordinated as part of the requested overall version.

For which timber species is aluminium cladding available?

Both pine and oak are available in versions with aluminium cladding. Alternatively, you can choose an all-timber version. In your enquiry, clearly state both the timber species and whether the window should be supplied with or without aluminium cladding.

Which glazing is available for the side-hung window?

Choose a double-glazed or triple-glazed insulating glass unit. The glazing assembly includes a heat-reflective coating, a CHR warm-edge spacer and argon filling. State the preferred option together with the other configuration details in your enquiry.

How do I choose a glazing-bar layout?

Choose according to how calm or structured you want the glass area to appear and which lines suit your building. A sketch of your preferred look or the exact name of the glazing-bar pattern helps us understand your design intention clearly.

What information helps assess the proposed opening?

Record the measured opening dimensions and add notes about junctions, reveals and adjoining building elements. Photos or a simple drawing can support the description if they show the real situation clearly and without distortion.

Is the window CE marked and how long is the warranty?

Yes, this single-sash outward-opening side-hung window is CE marked. The product has a 5-year warranty. Keep the documents for your specific order so the selected version and its related details can be clearly traced later.
