Tilt & turn windows in Wood Street

Around Wood Street you will mostly find Edwardian bay-fronted terraces with porches and some interwar houses. 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. For offices and tenanted blocks, tilt and turn windows let occupants ventilate safely in the tilt position, while cleaning can be done from inside on upper floors.

Many owners here combine new windows with a composite or aluminium front door and a refreshed porch. Homes close to the railway line or Forest Road can be noisy, so we can quote acoustic glazing as an option. From Edmonton it is about 2.4 miles, a short drive along Forest Road.

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
