Our contemporary styled, multi-function tilt-turn window is operated by a single lever, allowing the window to swing in like a door for maximum ventilation and easy cleaning or to tilt in at the top for indirect ventilation. Our stainless steel multi-point hardware system ensures a tight seal while providing additional security and increased sash stability for oversized units.

Insect screens are installed on the exterior as a fixed or retractable screen. The tilt-turn window is also available in all-wood or aluminum clad and is compatible with a wide selection of lever designs, from modern to rustic.

Since our tilt-turn casement systems do not have fixed vertical dividers between sashes, they are ideal for meeting egress requirements while still maintaining elegant sash proportions.

Hardware

At Grabill, premium hardware is essential. Stainless steel and architectural bronze hardware are standard with specified finish options including satin nickel and oil rubbed bronze. We also feature electric actuators for motorized windows which expands our capabilities and product range. We use traditional and contemporary operators. Architectural hardware selections include AGB, Hoppe, G-U, **Bronze Craft,  FFI or as specified.  All our hardware carries a lifetime warranty.

Our use of stainless steel components offers high resistance to corrosion even in coastal environments.

** Bronze Craft hardware is nearly 95% recycled and provided on our Eco-Choice window series.

Finish

Grabill bronze clad windows combine the warmth and beauty of wood and naturally aged bronze. Bronze windows are durable and virtually maintenance free. Chemical patinas are hand rubbed, brushed, or polished to give an antique, aged appearance without the wait.

Screen / Storm

Screen frames are fabricated from anodized aluminum or solid wood with various finish options.

Screen cloth is available in fiberglass, aluminum or bronze wire mesh. Grabill is pleased to include GORETM inLightenTM a window screen made with an ultra-fine material that makes it appear virtually invisible, bringing the outside in with a clearer view, better light and better ventilation.

Retractable Screen is a perfect option for standardized sizes. Screen slides into the natural recess of the door or window frame and virtually disappears when not in use. Screen hardware offers a quite smooth operation and when not in use the screens are protected from dirt, ultra violet light and inclement weather.

Storm windows are a great match for restoration projects using single glazed windows. Screen/storm inserts use the same frame and interchange the screens and storms. Storm windows are made to order for restoration or single glazed window applications.

Engineering & Design Notes

This contemporary styled, multi functional window is operated by a single lever. The window swings in a door-like movement for easy cleaning, or tilts in the top for indirect ventilation. A multi point locking system seals the window tight and gives added security. These windows can be fabricated with a single lite, leaded glass panel or true divided lite configuration. Premium hardware selections include European AGB or Hoppe with choice of levers and finish.
