Tilt and Turn Windows
Multi-functioning, inward-opening windows with maximum ventilation flexibility.
What are Tilt and Turn Windows?
Tilt and Turn windows are a flexible design of windows which let you fully open the frame inwards. This, therefore, makes them easy for cleaning. Alternatively, you can simply tilt the window inwards for better ventilation. Because the frame can open fully, Tilt and Turn windows can also be used as a fire escape. The system can even be incorporated into bow and bay window configurations and offers a variety of glazing options including obscure glass and leaded lights.

- Extensive choice of frame designs and casement opening configurations
- Available in solid colours and a variety of foiled finishes.
- Range of handle colours to complement the finish of your windows

Reduce Your Heating Bills with Tilt and Turn Windows.
As much as a quarter of a home’s total heat loss occurs through its windows, but installing energy-efficient windows and doors can reduce this loss by up to 75 percent.
In a three-bedroom detached house, swapping out single-pane or outdated double-glazed windows can lower heating costs by as much as £160 annually. Enhanced insulation results in reduced energy consumption, which also leads to a decrease in harmful CO2 emissions.
Understanding Your Energy Efficiency
Window Energy Ratings rate windows from ‘A/A+’ to ‘G’ using a ‘traffic-light’ type colour code. To meet building regulations, all new windows must achieve a minimum WER ‘C’ rating or U-value of 1.6 or less. Doors and Conservatories are not rated in the same way but both our products are equally as energy efficient as our windows ensuring your home performs well.
Designs That Will Keep You Warm
The windows and doors installed by Cardinal Home Improvements use a German engineered, thermally efficient five chamber PVCu system which creates a boundary between the cold air outside and your warm air inside. They have also been designed to accommodate the most energy efficient triple-glazed insulated units.
