Hinge system

A type of door or window that is connected to the frame by hinges and opens and closes around a vertical axis.

Advantages of hinged windows

• Excellent ventilation: Especially single- and double-hung windows that open completely provide excellent airflow.
• High insulation: They have low energy loss due to the sash being pressed into the frame.
• Security: They have high security due to the multi-point locking mechanism in modern types.
• Easy cleaning: Most types can be accessed and cleaned from both sides.
• Versatility: They can be used in different designs, colors and architectural styles.

Disadvantages of hinged windows

• Opening space requirement: They require free space outside or inside to open completely.
• Size limitation: In very large sizes, they may become heavy and put a lot of pressure on the hinges.
