Top swing reversible
With the top swing ironmongery, the win-
dow sash can be pushed out and turned
around 170 degrees outside the frame. The
ironmongery is always placed in the middle
and the sash can therefore be turned around
within the outer dimensions of the frame.
The outside of the glass can then be clea-
ned from the inside. The sash is operated by
a handle at the centre of the bottom sash
which activates an espagnolette that enga-
ges with the receiver in the frame when the
sash is closed.
The receiver has two slots, the inner slot is
for closing the window, while the outer slot
produces a gap at the bottom of 10-20 mm
for a night ventilation facility which can be
securely locked in position.
The top-swing window is equipped with an
integrated child-proof lock which blocks the
sash when it is opened approx. 100 mm.
Further opening of the window is done by
deactivating the child-proof lock and the
sash can now be turned 170° outside the
façade of the house, so the outside of the
glass can be cleaned from the inside.
The sash can also be opened to a random
angle and secured by the built-in friction in
the ironmongery. Note that the position of
the sash cannot be secured during strong
winds or draughts.
When the sash is turned around for cleaning,
the child-proof lock acts as a cleaning safety
lock so that the sash cannot accidentally
turn around during cleaning.
Windows that are lower than 606 mm are
not equipped with child-proof lock/ventila-
tion position.
Child-proof lock
The child-proof lock is placed in the right-
handside when viewed from the inside. It
is activated by lifting the safety arm off
the stop while pulling the sash slightly in-
wards. The sash can now be opened while
the safety arm is kept clear of the stop.
