Products by Type

Find windows and doors by how they open, available across multiple materials. Each type below shows which material options carry that configuration.

Tilt-Turn

A distinct dual-mode mechanism: the sash tilts inward at the top for secure ventilation, or turns fully inward on a side hinge for full opening and cleaning. Popular in high-rise and European-style construction. Available in aluminum and uPVC.

Awning

Top-hinged sash that pushes outward at the bottom. Allows ventilation even in light rain and suits narrow horizontal openings above other windows or doors. Available in aluminum and uPVC.

Sliding

One or more panels glide horizontally on a track. No swing clearance needed, ideal for tight spaces and large openings. Available in all three materials for both windows and doors.

Hung

Vertically sliding sashes: single hung (lower sash moves) or double hung (both sashes move). A traditional configuration common in North American residential construction. Available in aluminum and uPVC.

Hinged & French

Hinged doors that swing on a vertical axis. Hinged (single panel) and French (double panel, centre-meeting stiles) share the same mechanism and hardware family; the distinction is panel count, not opening type. Available in aluminum and uPVC.

Bi-Fold

Multiple panels that fold and stack to one or both sides, creating a near-full open wall. Popular for indoor-outdoor connection. Available in aluminum only.

Lift & Slide

The handle lifts the panel off the sill seal onto precision rollers, then it slides effortlessly across a wide opening. Handles large, heavy panels that a standard sliding door cannot: tight seal when closed, smooth operation when open. Available in aluminum and aluminum-wood clad.

Fixed (Picture)

Non-operable fixed glazing that maximizes light and views. Many series offer matching tilt-turn or casement sashes in the same profile so fixed and operable panels can be combined in a single run.
