Triple Paned Glass

Triple glazing uses two Low-E panels and one Low Iron panel to reflect heat back into the home. Excellent choice for colder climates, like Canada.

LoĒ-i89

Excellent winter performance. It allows a high amount of visible light while reflecting heat back into the home.

Annealed Glass

Annealed glass is made using a slow cooling process to increase durability and prevent shattering. When it does break, it splits into sharp, irregular shaped pieces.

Tempered Glass

Tempered glass goes through a controlled thermal process in manufacturing to change its structure. When it breaks, it fractures into small harmless fragments with relatively rounded edges.

Laminated Glass

Laminated glass is composed of two or more layers of glass with an interlayer of plastic, providing resistance to shattering upon impact. When it breaks, the interlayer holds it together preventing fragment dispersal.

Grilles

Internal

This type of grille pattern has the grilles between the glass.

Simulated Divided Lite (SDL)

The grilles in this pattern are on the outside of the glass.

SDL With Spacer Bar (SDLS)

This configuration uses both internal and SDL grilles.

A brickmold casing serves as a decorative element and helps to seal the gap between the window or door frame and the adjacent wall surface, providing a finished look and weather resistance. The brickmold frame typically extends beyond the edges of the window or door frame. We craft our brickmolds from a durable uPVC powder compound that is designed to stand up to the harshest elements.

FAQs on Tilt and turn Windows

Pros of Tilt and turn Windows

Besides the unmatched versatility in the ways tilt windows open, their multipoint locking mechanism controlled with just one handle provides an equally unmatched combination of security with simplicity of operation.

Also, uniquely, the tilting feature allows for a different type of air exchange pattern. Since the window opens the widest at the very top in this mode, fresh air enters the living space at a more upwards angle. Cold breeze from an open window doesn’t blow directly at someone inside the house. Instead, fresh air blows up towards the ceiling where it enters the convection loop at a tangent thus creating less turbulence and more gradual heat exchange. You will never see a draft pulling a curtain and flipping a flowerpot with these windows. You will also hardly ever have an issue with e.g. a cat ripping the bug screen.

Cons of Tilt and turn Windows

Tilt and turn Windows have wider, stronger, and therefore heavier frames that were originally designed for European market where thicker stone walls prevail. Heavier frames and sophisticated hardware come with a price and a different size range than your usual North American alternative – casement window.

Tilt windows are appropriate the openings are close to the top limits for a casement window, and do not look as great (too much frame vs. glass) when the size is small. They also require a certain wall thickness – when a tall window tilts at the top and the wall is not thick enough the window is bound to hit the blinds or shutters if you have them.

Are Tilt and turn windows more energy efficient?

Tilt and turn windows are top rated for efficiency just like casement windows. Canadian-made tilt and turn windows are Energy Star rated and, depending on the glazing, are qualified for the Federal rebate programs.

Why Tilt and turn windows is more expensive?

Tilt windows are generally more expensive than other window styles, due to their more complex operating systems and locking mechanisms. However, they are still more affordable than window styles like bay windows, and bow windows. The exact price difference can vary depending on factors such as the colour, glazing and size.

Do tilt and turn windows provide good airflow?

The tilt and turn window type is the most secure. It features a multi-point locking system that securely locks the window sash in place. These windows have European standard RC2 intruder proofing which makes them more secure than any American style window. The glazing can also be ordered as safety glazing which adds extra security.

Tilt turn windows are very secure and durable. Their unique burglary-proof design ensures protection from the environment and most robbers/intruders.

Tilt and turn windows are more secure compared to the traditional windows. The tilt of the window leaves very little gap for an intruder to enter your home. The window has a swing hinge, which makes it difficult to force the window open. The window is also safer for families with children or even pets. Keeping the window open at a tilt ensure that children or pets do not climb out or jam their fingers or paws. And a multi locking system. This makes them miles superior to North American standard windows.

Can tilt and turn windows be custom sized?

Another advantage of Tilt and turn windows that their Maximum and minimum width and heights are notably bigger than standard windows.

The minimum width is 24” and minimum height is 24”. While maximum width is 44” and maximum height is 80”.
