Tilt & Turn windows from Mumford & Wood combine practicality, style, and innovation in one elegant design. With their unique dual-opening mechanism, these windows offer exceptional flexibility for modern living.
What Is a Tilt & Turn Window?
Tilt & Turn windows can be opened in two distinct ways: tilting inward from the top for controlled ventilation, or swinging open from the side, similar to a traditional casement. This clever functionality makes them ideal for a wide range of properties, from contemporary apartments to period renovations.
- Tilt Function: When tilted, the window opens slightly from the top, creating a secure gap for airflow. This is perfect for bringing fresh air into a room without fully opening the window, enhancing both ventilation and privacy.
- Turn Function: Turning the handle a different way allows the window to open fully inward from the side. This wide access makes cleaning easier and provides a practical emergency escape route, especially for upper floors.
Why Choose Tilt & Turn Windows?
Versatile Opening Mechanism
The hallmark of a Tilt & Turn window is its intelligent dual-function design. Whether you're looking for subtle airflow or full access for maintenance and cleaning, this style offers exceptional control.
Enhanced Security
Security is built into every element of a Tilt & Turn window. The tilt setting provides ventilation while keeping the opening narrow and secure. Both tilt and turn positions feature robust locking mechanisms for added protection.
Excellent Energy Efficiency
When closed, these windows form a tight seal, helping to retain heat and block out draughts. This makes them a smart choice for developers, architects and builders seeking to enhance insulation, minimise noise, and lower their energy bills.
Timeless Design
With their clean lines and understated profiles, Tilt & Turn windows suit both traditional and modern properties. At Mumford & Wood, our timber frames can be tailored to complement any architectural style.
Key Benefits of Tilt & Turn Windows
- Space-Saving: Because these windows open inward, there's no need to allow for external clearance. They're ideal for balconies, narrow gardens, or areas with limited space outside.
- Controlled Ventilation: The tilt option provides fresh air without exposing the interior to strong winds or rain—ideal for maintaining airflow even in unpredictable weather conditions.
- Improved Safety: In an emergency, the full inward opening can act as a convenient and accessible escape route.
- Durability & Craftsmanship: Built using high-quality timber and precision-engineered components, our Tilt & Turn windows are made to last. As with all Mumford & Wood products, durability and quality are guaranteed.
