Tilt-and-turn tilts in for air and turns in for cleaning. It is not a casement with a better brochure. The hardware is the product.
If the specification says tilt-and-turn, keep those words on the quote request. If it only says "European style," that is not a type. Send the hardware the section actually names.
Product sourcing
Product sourcing for commercial windows follows the opening type, sizes, frame finish, and specification section. Division 8 USA is a Houston supplier of commercial architectural products for hospitality, multifamily, commercial, student housing, and senior living. The services are specification review, product sourcing, project quotations, procurement coordination, and delivery coordination.
What to send
- Opening type from the type mark
- Width and height for each mark
- Frame finish
- Glazing, when the specification requires it
- Quantity and project location
What this note will not do
Manufacturer figures printed on a product page are reference values to confirm. They are not Division 8 USA test reports.
More on commercial windows. The five services are on product sourcing. Send the specification for a project quotation.
Can tilt-and-turn be substituted for casement?
Only if the specification allows it. Otherwise request the operation that is drawn.
