Reversibles: Top & Side

The Norfolk Frames reversible window systems offers specifiers the widest range combining fixed and opening lights, internally or externally beaded and featuring either a rebated casement or flush finish. A range of transom and mullions provide additional configurations in a window whose opening style is ideal for medium and high rise dwellings and office or hotel accommodation. Norfolk Frames top and side reversible windows are compatible with other Norfolk Frames windows and doors.

Composition

Sections extruded from modified PVC-U complying with BS7413[1].

Appearance

A smooth surface finish in white or woodgrain, with sight lines designed to match traditional casements. Either rebated or flush finish appearance is available.

Size

Windows are manufactured to customers specification. The maximum recommended size for individual opening lights is 1250mm W x 1600mm H, although larger sizes are possible. For all queries regarding size, design and function contact L.B Plastics' Specifier Support Department.

Fittings and Hardware

The top reversible is fitted with a unique hinge, allowing the window to open out traditionally, retaining the advantages of a casement but reversing for safer cleaning from inside the property. The window is balanced at all angles and has a locking restrictor on both the initial opening position and also on the fully reversed position.

The hardware for a side reversible is similar in operation but allows the windows to be opened on a horizontal axis. This gives over a 90% open area and is often used in compliance with fire regulations.

Maintenance

The sliding friction block within the hinge channel does not require oiling. Any espagnolette mechanism should be kept free of debris and sprayed with a lubricant/protective coating at six monthly intervals.
