It’s all in the details
Choosing a window style is your most immediate decision when shopping for replacement tilt & turn windows and then it’s a question of choosing a colour, along with some glazing and hardware.
UPVC is the popular choice
White remains a dependable choice, but modern finishing techniques give you more scope to explore a host of shades outside of white. You have restrained tones, heritage-inspired shades and timber-effect finishes to ensure your UPVC windows have a unique appearance.
Crisp lines, modern finishes
Our aluminium frames have a vibrant appeal due to the lengths we go to when applying the durable powder-coated colours. Woodgrain effects such as Rosewood, Oak or Walnut are worth exploring when you want a warmer, more natural aesthetic – the kind that you get with genuine timber frames.
A detail that defines designs
Small hardware choices can have a very strong influence on the finished tilt and turn windows. Research the different handle styles in depth to detect whether you want a handle with a traditional touch, contemporary feel or discreet finish that lets the window design take centre stage.
Customise your tilt & turn windows
Our glazing choices are an invitation to make tilt and turn windows exhibit some of your own character. Some are focused on enhancing privacy and others designed to add decoration.

Common questions about tilt & turn windows
The versatility of a tilt and turn window is what often compels a customer to investigate the style. If you’re keen to know more about tilt and turn windows, have a read of our common questions and expand your knowledge of them with us.
1. What exactly is a tilt & turn window?
It is a window with two distinct opening positions. The first allows the top of the sash to lean into the room for ventilation, while the second lets the entire sash swing inward. One handle controls both functions.
2. Do tilt & turn windows help keep a home warm?
They can. Modern frames, efficient glazing and effective seals work together to limit unwanted heat escaping through tilt and turn windows. When closed, the tight seal around the sash also helps reduce draughts and cold spots.
3. Why are tilt & turn windows a popular choice?
Their appeal comes from having two useful functions within one design. You can introduce a controlled amount of fresh air when required or create a much larger opening when you want maximum airflow or easier access to the glass.
4. How do you operate a tilt & turn window?
The handle determines which opening mode you use. Set it to the tilt position for a smaller opening at the top or move it to the turn position when you want the sash to swing further into the room.
5. Can blinds or curtains be fitted to tilt & turn windows?
Yes. Tilt & turn windows can accommodate a variety of window dressings. The important consideration is leaving sufficient clearance for the sash to move freely when using the turn function.
6. Are tilt & turn windows secure?
Modern tilt & turn designs can incorporate strong frames, robust hardware and multi-point locking systems to provide a secure closure. Quality locking components help prevent the sash from being easily forced open when the window is locked.
7. Are tilt & turn windows suitable for upstairs rooms?
Yes, and their inward-opening design can be particularly useful on upper levels. The tilt setting provides ventilation through a relatively small opening, while the inward turn function makes the outside of the glass accessible without needing to work from outside.
8. Are tilt & turn windows easy to clean?
Their inward-opening operation makes cleaning much more straightforward, particularly where external access would otherwise be difficult. You can bring the sash into the room to reach both sides of the glass from inside your home.
