Tilt & turn windows in Highgate

Around Highgate you will mostly find Georgian houses, Victorian villas, terraces and mansion blocks. 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. Tilt and turn windows are ideal for upper-floor flats because both sides of the glass can be cleaned from inside, avoiding the need for external access.

We make sash windows to the original proportions and glazing bar patterns. Where the old frames must stay, secondary glazing fitted inside improves comfort without altering anything from the street. Houses on Archway Road face a lot of traffic, and acoustic glass helps there. Highgate is about 5.2 miles from our factory.

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.

• Tilt position for secure ventilation
• Large clear opening for emergency escape
• Locking points all around the sash
