Tilt & turn windows in Enfield Town

The housing in Enfield Town is largely Georgian town houses, Victorian villas, Edwardian terraces and interwar semis. Tilt and turn styles rarely suit front elevations in conservation areas, so check with the council and consider them for hidden rear or side elevations instead.

On Victorian terraces, tilt and turn windows are best kept to rear extensions or loft rooms, where their modern look matters less and inward opening helps cleaning. In 1930s loft conversions and rear bedrooms, a tilt and turn window can provide a generous escape opening while still allowing secure night-time ventilation.

The Enfield Town conservation area covers a large part of the centre, and listed buildings need consent for almost any change. For these we suggest timber-look sash or flush casement windows, or secondary glazing where replacement is not allowed. We check with Enfield Council first. Our Edmonton factory is about 3.5 miles away, so surveys are easy to arrange.

Tilt and turn windows open inwards in two ways: tilted at the top for secure ventilation, or turned fully like a door for cleaning and escape. They suit flats, high-rise homes, modern builds and any room where outward-opening windows are impractical or cleaning from outside is difficult.

• Turns fully inward for safe cleaning
• Large clear opening for emergency escape
• Locking points all around the sash
