Security
Security has become an extremely important issue for the specifiers and fabricators of windows.
The strength of windows and their ability to resist intrusion has improved over recent years, with the introduction of more stringent Standards and better performing products.
Many products in the Titon range have enhanced security versions, and when fitted to a suitably manufactured window can significantly increase performance and ultimately give the building occupant peace of mind.
Enhanced security fittings are available for commercial as well as domestic applications.
A typical domestic side hung casement window fitted with security products would feature the following:
- Titon Trickle Ventilator - To give background ventilation without compromising security. A night vent position on the window is not secure.
- Securistyle Defender Friction Hinge with Vector Excluder - To resist 'jemmying'.
- Maco Shootbolt Espagnolette - For locking along the top and bottom as well as the side of the sash.
- Select Espagnolette Locking Handle - Improved window security compared to a Cockspur handle using a wedge. Self latching closure and key locking also ensure proper closure.
High security tilt and turn sets are available; please phone for further details.
