The Reversible window is an ideal solution for windows which are above ground floor level as it complies with both fire escape and safe cleaning regulations.
Simply push out for ventilation and the window locks to an open position, then by releasing the safety catch, the window will open all the way.
It can then be fully reversed turning it upside down by swinging it outwards and turning through 180º out of the room to make cleaning easier.
This allows internal fixtures such as blinds, curtains or that shaving mirror to remain exactly where they are and still have a window open.
