Tilt and Turn Windows

Inspired by Europe's most advanced and advanced models, TWIST windows are versatile, adapted to North American construction standards and compatible with a wide range of interior and exterior accessories and energy efficient lenses. Let yourself be carried by the wind of the change that is currently blowing and opt for the TWIST range.

Main Features :

  • Combines two opening systems, which makes it possible to open the window inwards along a vertical axis or to partially open the flap inwards along a horizontal axis
  • Allows good ventilation throughout the day
  • Allows airing without fear of infraction
  • Superior performance (cold cut compression)
  • Design from Europe

Specificities:

  • 3 ¼ "(82.5 mm) deep PVC frame
  • 2.5 mm external walls, internal walls among the thickest on the market for maximum insulation and durability
  • Multi-room structure (17 rooms in the framework, 13 in the section) to meet the highest performance and energy efficiency requirements
  • Continuous continuous weatherstripping with polymer compression seals eliminating air or water infiltration
  • Steel reinforcements in the most stressed parts of the frame, the flap and the mullion to support all the dimensions with efficiency
  • Optimized drainage system thanks to pressure balance system and drip cap ideally positioned
  • Shutters designed to hold and support glasses up to 1 ¾ "(44.5 mm) thick
  • Door compatible with all floor coverings, even thick ones [1.7 "(43 mm) clearance]
  • Hardware securely fastened through steel reinforcements to provide increased durability
  • Multi-point locking system throughout the perimeter, ensuring perfect soundproofing in addition to guaranteeing maximum safety and leak tightness
  • Possibility of aluminum threshold extension for door configurations
  • Spring-mounted mosquito net perfectly integrates with the window for an ideal architectural style.


Aesthetic features:

  • Design with i maximum luminosity and a wide field of view on the outside.
  • Uniform and consistent appearance.
  • Doors with hinges visible or not.
  • Invisible glass interlayer.
  • Frame and flap geometry compatible with concealed or non hidden hinges.
  • Preferred solution for creating large opening windows.

Multi-room structure
The largest number of internal chambers in the industry. Offers superior thermal efficiency. Provides proven resistance to distortions and collapses (reduces the likelihood of glazing loosening). Also reduces noise pollution significantly.

Exclusive compound of PVC
Provides better resistance to blows and discoloration.

Fused weld corners
Avoid the use of adhesives and sealants for an impeccable appearance and strengthened strength. Totally waterproof and windproof.

Multiple weather stripping
Ensures a remarkable leak-tightness to air infiltration, thus reducing heating and cooling costs.

Inner glazing beads
Allows the window to withstand extreme weather conditions.

Pull handle
Full width double wall with exceptional strength.

Double panels of the shutter
Increased soundproofing and robustness.

Choose the Right Glazing
Double glazing, filled with inert gas (argon), glazing covered with a film Low-E ... The options are numerous, all aiming to make rhyme glazing with energy efficiency, comfort, soundproofing and great satisfaction. Other options allow you to accentuate the aesthetics of your windows: tinted glasses, frosted glass, tiles and integrated blinds, etc.

Here is some information and advice that will help you make the right choice between the number of lenses and the options available:

Double Glass
Composed of 2 panes, an interlayer, a Low-E film and argon gas, this option is the most popular (with good reason) because it offers very good energy efficiency without spending a fortune.

Triple Glass
In this case made up of three panes, this configuration provides better thermal performance as well as an increase in the temperature of the inner window which increases the comfort and reduces the effect of condensation. The triple glazing also brings a noticeable improvement for reducing noise traffic type fast. The choice of a triple glazing is therefore made when your budget allows it or when the external conditions really require it (ex window facing north with extreme temperatures in winter, the most northern climatic zone in Canada, proximity to Airport, etc.).

Laminated
The laminated thermos maintains the energy properties of the double glass thermos while considerably reducing the external noise.

Tinted
The tinted glass allows to gain privacy without depriving you of the sight. Indeed, it does not affect visibility to the outside, but considerably reduces that towards the interior. It is however important to know that this type of glass considerably reduces the thermal gains of the window and thus affects its energy efficiency.

Tempered
Tempered glass is a safety glass. When broken, tempered glass will burst into many small pieces to reduce the risk of injury. This glass is also 4 to 5 times more resistant to impact than a regular glass.

Frosted
Frosted glass is a conventional glass that has been treated with sand or acid to create a satin surface effect. Thus, even if it remains translucent, this glass makes it possible to hide slightly the view towards the inside as the outside.

They are of obvious aesthetic interest, but reduce the glazed area and can impact the energy efficiency of the window. Think about it!
