ADVANCED Double tilt & turn

Current trends in architecture seek to maximise light entry and eliminate visual obstacles through large windows, but how do you achieve good ventilation when construction conditions require smaller double-leaf openings? This challenge is also presented in renovations of old buildings, where preserving the original aesthetics limits the possibility of modernising. In these cases, double-leaf windows or balcony doors are necessary; although at the cost of reduced ventilation.

Conventional tilt & turn systems only allow one leaf to tilt, significantly restricting airflow; this results in the need for innovations to improve this functionality without compromising aesthetics.

The double tilt-opening system is a solution designed for double-leaf windows or balcony doors, which allows both leaves to be tilted simultaneously with a single action or manoeuvre.

This innovative feature is particularly useful in situations where ventilation is required without compromising the space, such as in buildings with limited dimensions or in rehabilitation projects, where the original aesthetic characteristics of the openings must be conserved.

» Maximise ventilation

• Superior ventilation capacity. Unlike traditional systems where only the active sash can tilt, this system allows both sashes to tilt at the same time. This drastically increases ventilation capacity without needing to open the windows completely.

• Ventilation equivalent to single sash systems. Despite using two sashes, the ventilation capacity is the same as in a single-sash window with the tilt & turn system, which offers a great advantage for double-sash windows that tend to offer a more limited ventilation capacity.

• Control with a single handle or cremone. The window’s handle or cremone activates the hardware of both sashes simultaneously, which allows them to be tilted open together. This means that both sashes behave like one single large window or door in the tilt position, improving the airflow to the interior.

» Usability and practicality

The system is designed to offer easy and intuitive operation, similar to that of a conventional window. With a simple twist of the handle or cremone, you can quickly execute the sequence of functions easily and efficiently. In addition, it incorporates anti-false manoeuvre devices that guarantee that both sashes remain synchronised, avoiding mismatches and ensuring safe and comfortable use.

» Ideal for renovations and rehabilitations

The system is focused on renovations in which you want to replace windows or balcony doors, with the aim of improving the thermal and acoustic insulation of the house or its aesthetics, but without modifying the size of the existing openings. This is common in situations where it is not possible to increase the dimensions of windows due to architectural or regulatory restrictions. By maintaining the same dimensions, the width of the window or door sashes may be reduced, affecting ventilation capacity.

In a traditional opening system, only the active sash can tilt, limiting  room ventilation to the space that a single opening provides. This is a drawback in narrow windows, as the amount of air that can circulate is reduced due to the small opening.

The double tilt & turn system solves this problem by allowing both window sashes (or balcony door) to tilt simultaneously from the same handle, causing them to behave as if they were a single larger sash. This greatly improves ventilation, as it increases the open surface area without the need to open the sashes completely or manipulate them separately. This type of system allows you to enjoy a greater ventilation capacity without compromising the design or functionality of windows in confined spaces.

» Quick and easy installation

The system installation is designed to be efficient and compatible with a wide range of windows and balcony doors, thanks to its adaptation to Eurogroove profiles.

• Full compatibility with Eurogroove profiles. Fully compatible with Eurogroove profiles, making it easy to integrate into existing or new windows and doors. Being designed specifically for these profiles, no additional adapters are required.

• Groove mounting. The components are easily installed by a groove mounting system. This means that the parts fit directly into the profiles  of the window sash, eliminating the need for special tools or complex installation processes.

• Fast and efficient. The installation is not only simple, but also fast, which significantly reduces working time and facilitates its implementation in new works or renovations.

• Complete kits for installation. The supplied kits include all the components necessary for the installation of the system. The only parts that should be selected separately are:

• Transmission rods: they are chosen according to the needs of each project and allow the transmission of movement between the sashes.
• Tilt & turn friction stay: this component is selected based on the dimensions of the window and the degree of opening you want to achieve.
