Timber Tilt and Turn Windows
Timber tilt and turn windows are a high performance European window system designed to provide secure ventilation and full inward opening for safe cleaning and access. This dual function makes them suitable for residential and commercial buildings.
Schnauber timber tilt and turn windows are engineered to achieve high levels of thermal efficiency, airtightness, water resistance, acoustic insulation and security. Precision manufactured timber frames and advanced sealing systems ensure reliable long term performance in varied weather conditions.
Frames are produced using engineered timber to provide structural stability and resistance to movement over time. Advanced German manufacturing processes ensure accurate tolerances, smooth operation and consistent insulation values. All windows are manufactured to project specific requirements.
Glazing Performance Options
A range of glazing solutions is available to meet different performance requirements.
Double glazing provides efficient thermal insulation and good acoustic performance for standard applications.
Triple glazing delivers enhanced thermal efficiency, lower U values and improved sound insulation for low energy and high performance buildings.
Vacuum glazing achieves very low U values within a slim glazing profile and is suitable for retrofit, heritage and design constrained projects.
Precision Manufacturing and Customisation
All Schnauber timber tilt and turn windows are manufactured to strict German engineering standards and tested for airtightness, weather resistance and thermal performance.
Each window can be fully customised including glazing specification, finishes, RAL colours, hardware options and engineered timber solutions such as CLT and LVL laminates.
Schnauber is FENSA registered, ensuring all installations comply with current building regulations and recognised industry standards.

This style of wooden window is ideal for any type of property especially town houses, apartments and offices.
A tilt and turn window works well in atriums and areas requiring large amounts of glazing.
In buildings over three storeys where specialist cleaning equipment would be required.
If you are looking for a window that offers style and functionality then a wooden tilt and turn window, or pivot window, is the answer.
If you are looking for a timber window that is easy to operate.

If you want to maximise light.
The nature of the operation of the tilt and turn window ensures high levels of security. The window can be tilted from the bottom allowing secure ventilation.
If you have young children the nature of the opening mechanism of the windows means that they are child and elderly friendly. For additional peace of mind child locks can also be installed.
Excellent ‘U’ value of 1.2 W/m² available from double glazing or choose triple glazing to enhance the ‘U’ Value up to 0.79.
We use the latest German locking system to ensure the security and integrity of your tilt and turn wooden windows.
These windows can be fitted with a large range of ironmongery and additional features including safety restrictors, safety glass and trickle vents for background ventilation.
For a specific durability and aesthetic performance, hardwoods such as Oak can be specified. Typically however a treated softwood such as Scandinavian Redwood or Larch is selected and can often be just as durable. Both soft and hardwood varieties can be finished using a range of finishes including stains, varnish and paints matched to your exact colour requirements.
The wooden windows manufactured by Schnauber are all made from responsible and sustainable sources and certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). As with all of Schnauber’s window types they provide excellent air permeability and water tightness ratings, ensuring minimum heat loss during winter months.
The tilt and turn window is also the easiest style of window to clean inside and outside, with the tilt and turn mechanism enabling the cleaning of all panes to be carried out from inside the property. Appropriate locks ensure safe opening and fixing of positions for cleaning and maintenance.
All Schnuaber timber windows are pre-treated with a non-toxic wood preservative which ensures that maintenance is kept to a minimum. Your wooden tilt and turn windows will require some level of maintenance every 5-10 years. Following regular maintenance, the product should have a life span of 60+ years.
Schnauber’s wooden tilt and turn windows are the safest option available if you have a young family or for the elderly as they can be fitted with a 100 mm restrictor limiting the risk of a fall from height.
If ease of maintenance is a primary requirement, such as in apartments or office blocks, tilt and turn windows are an ideal solution.
