TILT AND TURN WINDOWS IN MONTREAL
European Design Maximum Performance
EUROPEAN DESIGN. BUILT FOR CANADIAN HOMES.
Durable uPVC construction with steel reinforcement.
Premium Roto hardware and a concealed drainage system.
Versatile & compatible with screens and Prima series
Tilt and turn windows are valued for their elegant simplicity, practicality, and advanced European engineering. With a single smooth turn of the ergonomic handle, they open fully inward for maximum ventilation and easy cleaning, or tilt inward at the top for secure, draft-free airflow—even during rain or when you’re away.
Available with high-performance double or triple-pane glass, Low-E coatings, and argon gas fill, SELA Euro Tilt & Turn windows deliver outstanding thermal efficiency, with U-values as low as 0.20–0.25. ENERGY STAR® certified options make them an excellent choice for Montreal’s harsh winters and hot summers, helping homeowners significantly reduce heating and cooling costs.
For enhanced security, these windows feature multi-point locking systems, premium German-engineered Roto hardware, and optional laminated security glass that resists impact and forced entry. Advanced compression seals minimize air infiltration and heat loss, while reinforced uPVC frames with steel support ensure long-term durability and smooth operation in Quebec’s demanding climate.
Whether you’re renovating an older home in Saint-Eustache or Laval, or building new in the Montreal area, SELA tilt and turn windows combine modern European design, superior energy performance, and everyday practicality

New Configuration
Tilt and Turn Butterfly
The new Tilt & Turn Butterfly window configuration is designed for larger openings, combining flexibility, functionality, and modern European style. With two operable sashes that open from the center, it provides a wide clear opening, excellent ventilation, easy operation, and convenient access for cleaning. This innovative design is an ideal choice for homeowners looking for a spacious, energy-efficient window solution with the premium performance of European Tilt & Turn technology.
Egress Windows Montreal Safe & Emergency Exit
Building Code Compliance
Building codes in Montreal and across Quebec require egress windows in specific areas, such as basements and bedrooms, to ensure a safe emergency exit. Tilt and turn windows are designed to provide a wide, unobstructed opening when fully opened, creating a clear and accessible escape route. This functionality is essential for both safe evacuation and emergency responder access, while also meeting local building code requirements.
PREMIUM FEATURES OF SELA TILT-AND-TURN WINDOWS
Multi-Point Lock
One of the defining features of the EURO window system is its multi-point locking mechanism integrated into the sash profile. This system secures the window sash along both the vertical frame and the top horizontal section, distributing compression evenly across the perimeter of the unit. By engaging multiple locking points simultaneously, the system enhances structural stability, improves resistance to wind load, and significantly reduces air and water infiltration. The result is superior thermal performance, improved acoustic insulation, and long-term operational reliability.
Hidden Drain Holes
The EURO window system features fully concealed drainage channels integrated within the frame profile. Hidden drain openings on all tilt and turn lines efficiently direct water away from the sash and frame, ensuring optimal moisture management without visible exterior slots.This engineered drainage design enhances weather resistance, reduces the risk of water infiltration, and protects the structural integrity of the window over time. By eliminating exposed weep holes, the system maintains a clean, seamless exterior appearance that aligns with modern European design standards.
Heavy Duty Screen
A heavy-duty exterior screen system engineered with a reinforced aluminum frame for maximum structural stability and long-term durability. The frame is finished with a high-quality powder-coated coating to provide superior corrosion resistance, UV protection, and resistance to fading or surface degradation over time. Designed for secure external mounting, the system maintains rigidity under wind load while ensuring precise alignment with the window profile. The tightly tensioned mesh enhances airflow and visibility while offering reliable insect protection without compromising performance.
Benefits of Installing Tilt-and-Turn Windows
Versatile Dual-Action Operation
Tilt and turn windows offer advanced European engineering with dual functionality — tilting inward for secure, controlled ventilation or swinging fully open for maximum airflow and easy cleaning. This flexible design makes them ideal for modern homes and renovation projects.
Advanced Multi-Point Security
Equipped with reinforced multi-point locking systems and heavy-duty German-engineered hardware, these windows secure the sash along multiple contact points for enhanced structural stability. Optional laminated security glass provides additional protection against impact and forced entry, even when the window is in tilt mode.
Superior Energy Efficiency & Thermal Performance
Available with high-performance double or triple-pane glass, Low-E coatings, and argon gas fill, tilt and turn windows deliver exceptional insulation. Triple-pane configurations can achieve U-values as low as 0.20–0.25 (depending on size and glazing package). Advanced compression seals minimize air infiltration and heat loss, helping reduce heating and cooling costs year-round. Energy Star® certified options are available for Canadian climate zones.
Enhanced Sound Insulation
The perimeter compression sealing system, combined with optional laminated or triple glazing, significantly improves acoustic performance, reducing outside noise and creating a quieter indoor environment.
Easy Maintenance & Long-Term Durability
The inward-opening design allows safe and convenient cleaning from inside the home — especially beneficial for multi-story properties. Reinforced frames, concealed drainage systems, and corrosion-resistant components ensure long-term reliability with minimal maintenance.
Modern European Design
With sleek sightlines, concealed hardware options, and customizable finishes, tilt and turn windows complement both contemporary and traditional architecture while increasing property value and curb appeal.
