A tilt and turn window has one handle controlling two actions. Turn it 90° and the sash swings fully inward like a door — ideal for cleaning both panes from inside and for use as an escape window. Turn it 180° and the sash tilts in at the top, leaving a secure ventilation gap. It is the standard window style across Germany, Austria and Scandinavia, and is increasingly popular in Irish new builds, apartments and upstairs rooms where cleaning the outside pane safely is otherwise impossible.
The tilt position gives continuous background ventilation without an open window a child could climb through or a burglar could reach into — a genuine safety upgrade over a night-latch casement. The full inward turn means no ladders, no leaning out of upstairs windows and no paying a window cleaner for the outside pane. The compression seal around the whole frame closes tighter than a standard hinge window, which is why tilt and turn units consistently achieve excellent airtightness and acoustic results on Irish BER assessments.

SEAI eligibleSEAI eligibleSEAI eligibleCasement windows open outward on a side hinge; tilt and turn windows open inward with two positions. Choose tilt and turn if you want secure trickle-free ventilation, easy inside-and-out cleaning, or need the window to double as an escape route in a bedroom. Choose casement if you want the cheapest A-rated option or prefer the traditional outward-opening look. We supply and fit both — most customers mix them: tilt and turn upstairs and in the kitchen, casement downstairs where external sills suit the facade.
In the tilt position, the window stays locked around three sides with only a narrow top gap — you can air a bedroom overnight without security worries. Optional child-restricted handles require a key or button press to move from tilt to full turn, keeping small children safe on upper floors. Multi-point locking engages around the full frame in the closed position, and all opening sashes carry a 6-point shoot bolt locking system with internal glazing beads so glass cannot be removed from outside.

uPVC tilt and turn windows cost from €750 + VAT per window fitted, with most standard bedroom windows landing at €750–€850. Triple-glazed or oversized units run €900–€1,100. That is roughly €100–€150 more than an equivalent casement window because of the dual-action hardware. A full house of 10 tilt and turn windows typically costs €7,500–€10,000 + VAT before the SEAI grant. We provide a fixed, itemised quote within 24 hours of measuring — no hidden costs.
Yes — they are one of the safest options. In the tilt position the sash opens only a few centimetres at the top while remaining locked around the other three sides, so a child cannot fall out or climb through. Optional child-restricted handles require a key or button press to switch from tilt to full turn. Multi-point locking engages around the full frame when closed.
Yes. A-rated tilt and turn windows qualify for the SEAI Better Energy Homes window grant — €1,500 to €4,000 depending on home type — provided your home was built before 2011 and the work is done by an SEAI-registered installer (which we are). See our SEAI grant pages for full eligibility and amounts by home type.
Every tilt and turn window we fit is Energy Rating A as standard. Double-glazed units achieve U-values of 1.2–1.4 W/m²K, and our 40mm triple-glazed units reach 0.9 W/m²K — comfortably inside the SEAI grant threshold of 1.4 W/m²K and Building Regulations Part L requirements. We use Pilkington K Low-E glass, argon-filled and warm-edge sealed.
Absolutely — most of our customers do. A common combination is tilt and turn upstairs and in the kitchen (secure ventilation, easy cleaning) with casement or flush sash downstairs, or sliding sash at the front of a period home. Frames, colours and glazing bars match across styles, so the house looks consistent from the kerb.
