Sleek and safe, our pivot windows are installed vertically on a wall. They rotate horizontally from a central axis, letting in much light and allowing for excellent ventilation. Available with insulating, modern vinyl or sustainably sourced, charming wooden frames, the windows can be well tailored to the different functional requirements and design preferences that our customers may have. To further complement this quality, our pivot windows can come in a square or round shape and feature a range of different color finishes and purpose-designed glazing options to produce a truly bespoke final product.

How a Pivot Opening Works
The window can be opened using a handle located at the top or bottom of the sash. When the user gently pulls this up towards them or pushes outwards, the catches on the casement are released. The window can therefore be rotated horizontally along a central axis. When the desired opening angle has been reached, the sash will be held safely in this position thanks to its quality hinges.
- Easy to clean: Because swing windows feature a central horizontal pivot, different areas of the frame and glazing can be effectively reached for upkeep.
- Space saving design: Compared to windows that turn open, swinging into interiors, our pivot windows take up less room inside when opened.
- Enhanced glazing options: To increase security as well as thermal and sound insulation, the window’s glass can be adapted during manufacturing. Frosted privacy finishes and ornamental surfaces are then also available.
- Customizable design: Our pivot windows are available in different frame materials fashioning a variety of professionally applied durable color finishes and decors.
- Large widths for open views out: Our windows can come in generous made-to-measure sizes without the need for structural bars that interrupt views.

Enhancing Security
Our vertical mounted pivot windows that rotate on a horizontal axis come with good standard insulation and security. For windows located near the ground floor or that face extreme weather conditions, impact resistance and break-in protection can be improved by opting for glass that has been laminated and tempered. Tempering during manufacturing creates glass that is more flexible and withstands higher pressures, for example. Similarly, during lamination, invisible PVB foil interlayers are inserted between panes, which makes the glass thicker and harder to break. If the glazing does crack under very high force, it then remains held on the intact foil.
