UPVC Tilt and Turn Windows

Safe Ventilation Without Sacrificing Security

When tilted, the opening at the top of the window is large enough to allow meaningful airflow but too small for anyone to reach through or climb through. That makes tilt and turn windows one of the most secure ways to ventilate a room, particularly on ground floors, in bedrooms, or in any space where leaving a window open overnight feels like an unacceptable risk with a conventional casement.

Effortless Cleaning from Inside Your Home

This is where tilt and turn windows genuinely stand apart. Because the sash swings fully inward in turn mode, you can clean the exterior glass from inside the room: no ladders, no reaching awkwardly out of the frame, no booking a window cleaner for upper floors. For first-floor and above windows in particular, this is a practical benefit that makes a real difference to everyday life.

Ideal for Apartments and Multi-Storey Buildings

Tilt and turn windows are the standard choice across Europe for apartments and high-rise developments, and it's easy to understand why. When an outward-opening window isn't practical or permitted, the inward-opening turn mode gives full access for cleaning and ventilation without ever needing to work from outside the building.

Outstanding Energy Efficiency

Ecologic uPVC tilt and turn windows are A-rated as standard. The multi-point locking mechanism draws the sash tightly against the frame when closed, compressing the rubber seals and creating an exceptionally airtight fit. The result is a window with excellent draught exclusion and thermal performance, with U-values that comfortably exceed current UK building regulation requirements.

Child Safety Built into the Design

In tilt mode, the restricted opening width means there's no risk of a child climbing through or leaning out dangerously. Parents and carers can ventilate a room freely without needing to fit additional restrictors or worry about window access. It's a safety feature built naturally into the way the window works.

Energy Efficiency: A-Rated as Standard

Every Ecologic tilt and turn window is A-rated as standard, with advanced glazing and a thermally efficient frame construction that keeps your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer. The tight, multi-point seal formed when the window closes in turn mode is one of the most effective draught barriers available in any window style, making tilt and turn windows an excellent choice for anyone prioritising energy performance.

Double glazing is included as standard, with triple glazing available for enhanced thermal insulation and superior noise reduction: a particularly valuable option for properties on busy roads, near transport routes, or in urban locations where acoustic comfort matters.

Security You Can Rely On

Every Ecologic uPVC tilt and turn window comes fitted with a multi-point locking system as standard, engaging at multiple points around the frame simultaneously for robust resistance to forced entry. When the window is in tilt mode, it remains locked at the base, meaning it cannot be pushed open or manipulated from outside the building. Even partially open, a tilt and turn window offers considerably more security than an equivalent casement left on the latch.

The inward-opening turn mode also makes tilt and turn windows a compliant option for rooms requiring an emergency egress window under Part B of the UK Building Regulations, offering a clear, unobstructed opening from inside the property.

Colour and Style Options

Ecologic uPVC tilt and turn windows are available in 18 durable colour finishes, applied directly to the uPVC profile for long-lasting results that won't peel, fade, or require repainting. Choose from:

• White: the clean, classic finish that suits any property
• Anthracite grey: a contemporary, architectural finish that's particularly popular on modern homes and extensions
• Woodgrain effects: including rosewood and Irish oak for the warm appearance of timber without the upkeep
• Heritage and mid-tone options: for period properties where subtler tones complement the building's character

Hardware is available in 7 furniture colours, and both bevelled and sculptured frame profiles are offered across the full range, giving you complete flexibility to match the style of your home.
