Tilt & turn windows in Mill Hill

The housing in Mill Hill is largely 1930s semis, detached interwar homes and older Ridgeway village houses. 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.

Allow for the inward swing when planning rooms in a detached home, keeping furniture, blinds and deep window sills clear of the sash's opening arc. 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.

The Mill Hill conservation area covers the Ridgeway village, so Barnet Council expects sympathetic designs there; we check before quoting. Homes near the M1, the A1 and the Midland Main Line can also benefit from acoustic glazing. Our Edmonton factory is about 8.2 miles away.

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
