Side Hung windows are typical for Northern European countries – Sweden, Norway and Finland. These windows open horizontally to the outside. They are equipped with SPILKA fittings, which allow gradual opening. After the initial opening of 8 cm, a blockade is activated, which is a superb safety measure in case a child opens the window.
Side-hung windows consist of two wings separated by a fixed or movable post. Thanks to opening outwards, the windows are being pushed by the wind when being closed, which guarantees enhanced tightness.
