Window FE
The Emergency Escape FE Top Hung and Pivot Window gives you access to the roof. It can be opened in two ways. The outward opening function enables opening to 40° and 68°, while the pivot function allows the sash to be rotated through 180°, for cleaning the outer side of the glass. The large window size and the facility to open the sash up to 68° allows for access to the roof for maintenance or for use as an emergency escape. Also available in conservation style.
Features
- Manufactured with pinewood, vacuum impregnated and finished with two coats of water based, clear acrylic lacquer
- Handle positioned on the lower part of the sash enables the window to be opened slightly, whilst a top handle serves to rotate the sash and to change the method of opening
- Suitable for roofs with pitches between 15° and 55° (complete with flashing)
- Wide selection of accessories (identical to those for pivot windows). Adapted versions of awning blinds and roller shutters are available for FE windows
Window FW
The FW thermally insulated escape window is sidehung and therefore side-opening. Once unlocked, the sash can be opened to 90°. A gas piston, fitted in the top part of the window makes opening easier, holds the sash stable then opened and prevents it slamming shut accidentally. The escape window is available in two versions, right opening FWP-R (shown here) or left opening FWP-L.
Note: View from the outside to determine whether a right or left opening window is required. The large size of the escape window enables safe and easy access to the roof. These windows are recommended for all heated rooms. Also available in conservation style.
Features
- Manufactured from pine wood, vacuum impregnated, with two coats of clear acrylic lacquer
- Handle positioned halfway up the sash for ease of opening
- Suitable for roofs with pitches between 15° and 55°
- Requires special flashings ESW, EZW, EHW and ELW (Note: flashings for pivoting windows are not suitable for escape windows). Comes with templates to facilitate installation.
- Wide range of accessories available, similar to that available for Centre Pivot roof windows
