Tilt+Turn Windows
One Energy-Efficient Window — Two Opening Functions.
Tilt+Turn windows by ActivWall feature the latest in German hardware innovations from Roto. With concealed hinges and dual-function operation for ventilation and easy cleaning, the result is a casement window product that delivers superior performance, comfort, and visibility when compared to traditional double-hung windows. Elevate your home’s style with Tilt+Turn windows that complement all ActivWall products.
How it Works:
Turn the handle to the middle position to open the window fully for easy cleaning. The integrated screen keeps insects out.
Turn the handle to the top position and allow the window to tilt inward for superior ventilation. This window design leverages the Venturi effect to create controlled air circulation. Cool outside air replaces hot indoor air during the cooler months, and vice versa during the warmer months. The key is controlled ventilation, whatever the season.
Each fully customizable unit features a thermally broken aluminum frame for maximum energy efficiency, and removable screens are included.
The art of Lüften or "House Burping."
A recent New York Times article highlights a growing trend inspired by the German practice of lüften (sometimes called “house burping”), where homeowners briefly open their windows to flush out stale indoor air and improve ventilation. This simple habit can help reduce indoor pollutants, moisture and carbon dioxide buildup, factors linked to headaches, fatigue and poor respiratory comfort, while bringing in fresh air for a healthier living space.
Our Tilt+Turn Window makes this easy and efficient: tilt it for controlled, daily ventilation without fully opening the sash, helping you refresh indoor air and support better air quality and well-being in your home.

Size
Each ActivWall Tilt+Turn Window can be designed as small as 2' W x 2' H, and up to 5' W x 8' H.
How to Measure:
The width of the “rough opening” is the measurement used – from stud to stud. For the height, the measurement begins at the header and runs to the bottom of the sill channel. If there is currently another window in place, the inside measurements of the current window frame (not the glass) will typically work, although be sure to speak to your ActivWall sales rep about this – images of the opening may be needed to determine the correct measurements.
Glazing
The aesthetic of your space is important. Our relationship with several trusted vendors enables us to offer a wide variety of glazing options.
Our Insulated Dual-Pane Low-E Argon-Filled Glass comes standard, offering superior thermal efficiency and comfort. For interior installations where energy efficiency is not a priority, we also offer single-pane glass, providing elegant simplicity for spaces such as sunrooms, offices, and partitions.
For those who desire an elevated level of personalization or performance, we offer premium glass enhancements, including:
• Tinted Glass
• Frosted Glass – Designed for privacy. It can also be used as a writable dry-erase surface.
• Textured Glass
• Printed Glass
• Bird-Resistant & Turtle Safe Glass – These options combine safety with sustainability.
• Impact-Resistant Glass – Engineered for strength and peace of mind in coastal or hurricane-prone regions.
To further enhance aesthetics, you can also add SDLs and GBGs in any pattern. We recommend pairing SDLs and GBGs for the optimal look.
• Simulated Divided Lites (SDL) – narrow metal grids on the exterior of the glass mimic the look of traditional divided lites windows.
• Grille Between Glass (GBG) – narrow metal grids sandwiched between two layers of glass to complete the look.
Finish
Standard finishes of white, black, and dark bronze are available at no additional charge. ActivWall Tilt+Turn Windows can also be customized with various other powder coat, anodized, and simulated wood-grain finishes.
• Powder Coat: We offer a range of durable and eco-friendly powder coat finishes available in a selection of vibrant color choices to meet your needs, and we can find and/or match virtually any color for an additional fee.
• Wood Grain Powder Coat: Get the warm look of wood applied to your low-maintenance and durable aluminum system. Wood grain powder coat finishes by Decoral are now available. Just as natural wood species may have distinct color and grain variations, these very realistic simulated finishes can also display character.
• Dual-Tone Finishes: Mix and match your favorite finishes on the interior and exterior of your unit to create a truly custom look.
• Coastal/Poolside Finishes: If your unit will be near a swimming pool or the ocean, ask your sales rep about adding a protective coastal/poolside finish. This consists of a corrosion-protective primer as a base coat and an opaque weather-resistant topcoat. The finish provides excellent corrosion resistance in harsh environments.
• Anodized Finishes: These are primarily used in commercial applications and provide an attractive appearance to match different architectural styles.
Additional Features
A variety of add-on features are available to fully-customize your ActivWall Tilt+Turn Window.
• Keyed Custodial Locks - For windows in commercial or institutional settings where controlled access is needed, we offer optional custodial locks to prevent opening by unauthorized individuals.
• Additional Fixed Panels - Complete the look with transoms, side lites, or panels designed to coordinate with your window.
