Two phase development
4th October 2016

SCHUECO UK is undertaking a two-phase development of its AWS outward-opening window range, beginning with the introduction of new profiles and fittings to increase the number of opening variations.

Among these are new double outward-opening windows without a central fixed mullion but with continuous centre seals. With sizes up to 2000 mm wide x 2500 mm high for double and 1000 mm wide x 2500 mm high for single vent windows, the system offers exciting new fenestration opportunities.

The company believes that these new AWS window options will prove ideal for balconies on large-scale, inner-city residential developments where their slim lines will add style to any apartment.

The first phase of the development applies to Schueco AWS 50.NI through to AWS 75.SI+ systems (excluding the Schueco AWS 70 SC).

Initially available hung on butt hinges, the new opening types also offer other benefits including a handle-operated brake which can hold the vent open at varying angles from 15o to 90o. An improved range of opening limit stays includes a 100 mm restrictor which can be detached for maintenance.

Both double and single vent versions achieve a Class 9A, EN 12208, water-tightness rating, while a low sill option for the Schueco AWS 70.HI and AWS 75.SI+ systems delivers Class 7A for double and Class 8A for single vent windows.

The completion of the second phase of development (scheduled for the middle of 2017) will see the introduction of top- and side-hung concealed hinges of a new and unique design specially developed for Schueco windows.
