Tilt & Turn Windows

The practicality of a tilt and turn window and the versatility it offers is a major benefit to any householder. No risk is posed to young children any time the tilt option is employed, and it also won’t enhance the possibility of a break-in occurring, just filtering in a welcoming breeze.

Installation of Extreme tilt and turn windows will significantly improve thermal efficiency as they contain both energy-efficient glass and an insulating UPVC profile. Orion can provide Extreme tilt and turn windows in double or triple glazed units, as you will learn when talking to an advisor.

White comes out on top as the favourite colour for Extreme tilt and turn UPVC windows, but it’s far from a standalone finish as countless hues and tones are accounted for in the colour palette. It covers the full spectrum, giving you an avenue to colour your windows in any shade that suits your property.

To achieve a sleek window aesthetic, explore Anthracite Grey or Matt Black will similarly encapsulate it. Elsewhere in the palette we have Chartwell Green, evocative of rural areas dominated by scenic and serene landscapes. Mix and matching colours and a dual-colour frame is your best option if a single finish isn’t enough.

Orion’s window designers conceptualised the Envisage range in tribute to the traditional timber flush casements of generations ago, brought to life using a UPVC profile. The historical proportions of flush casements have been copied, including most vitally, the flat external finish.

Envisage windows remove all the issues that blight timber flush casements, suffering from none of the weathering, which takes away the need for seemingly relentless upkeep. Employment of a UPVC frame ensures that the drawbacks of wooden windows don’t occur, but the classic style remains completely intact. The attention to detail that has been inputted into Envisage is quite extraordinary and has been worth the effort.

Many of the colour possibilities for the Envisage range include finishes traditionally synonymous with flush casements. Light Oak is one example and transforms the UPVC frame into something resembling wood. To the eyes and to the touch, a light oak-coloured tilt and turn window could very easily pass for a timber equivalent.

You won’t be left spending hours of your precious time on treating Envisage. Although it accurately mimics a wooden design, maintenance entails just an occasional wipe down of the UPVC frame every now and then.

UPVC may not align with your home’s age or character, whereas aluminium tilt and turn windows might just blend in seamlessly. Eclipse aluminium windows are likely to be amongst the slimmest windows you’ve ever encountered and possess immense strength.

Such narrow framework allows maximum glazing and consequently, profuse light gain within home interiors. If standard tilt and turn window sizes won’t suffice, tell us so and we will craft to your desired measurements.

Customers regularly query how we perfect the finishes on our Eclipse aluminium windows and the formula is an 11-stage powder-coating procedure. We experimented with various techniques but found this colouring strategy delivers the best results.

A separate process is harnessed by the Orion team on request of a woodgrain finish, called sublimation. The same amount of time and effort goes into these woodgrains. A selection of colours and woodgrains are displayed for you to assess.

There’s a functional element to a handle, of course, but don’t forget how it will also contribute to style. Orion’s craftspeople have fashioned a series of traditional and contemporary handles that uncomplicate window operation and inject beauty.

Security is in no way sacrificed for style. An intruder will have an immensely difficult time of exploiting the handle to gain access to your home. You’re advised to visit Orion’s York showroom to witness the secure nature of the handles and admire their visual appeal in person.

When the outdoor temperature is warm, the handles affixed to the tilt and turn windows will be frequently used, but we can assure that it won’t cause the finish on them to deteriorate. No fading or unsightly wear and tear will arise from prolific handle usage, as our coloured finishes are made to endure.

You can choose from white, black, gold and chrome hardware, offering you lots of colour flexibility. Years on from the installation of the windows, our coloured finishes will remain in pristine condition.

A tilt and turn window can only succeed in delivering optimum security and thermal efficiency if it possesses intelligent glazing, which our tilt and turn windows do. Where patterned glass is specified, abundant natural light will still reach your interiors in high quantities.

Orion will be happy to organise privacy glazing, where desired, such as for windows destined for a bathroom area, so that your privacy is maintained.

Some embellishment to the tilt and turn windows in the form of decorative leaded, astragal or Georgian bars will amplify their charm and ignite a vintage aesthetic. Employ them to make the windows have a resounding impact on the entire house.

Bar detailing will ensure that your new tilt and turn windows steal all the attention and revive enduring home kerb appeal.
