This allows ventilation even during light rain — a practical and popular choice for South African homes where weather protection and airflow are both important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does \"4 top openers with fixed middle pane and fixed sublight\" mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis window has six sections in total: four top-hinged opening casements that provide ventilation across the full width of the window, one fixed middle pane that does not open, and one fixed sublight (a smaller pane positioned below). This configuration maximises ventilation and natural light across a large wall opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the overall frame dimensions?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frame opening is 1800mm wide x 1490mm high x 70mm deep. This is a large-format window suited to wide wall openings. Always verify your wall opening dimensions before ordering to ensure a correct fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat type of hinges does this window use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis window is fitted with easy-clean yellow passivated friction hinges (mild steel), also commonly referred to as passivated friction stays. The yellow passivation treatment provides corrosion resistance, and the friction mechanism holds each casement open at any position without requiring a separate stay arm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat hardware is included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe window is supplied complete with easy-clean yellow passivated friction hinges and solid brass handles. No additional hardware purchase is required for the opening casements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this window include glass?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Glass is not included. Timber windows are supplied as frames only — glass must be sourced and fitted separately by your glazier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this window suitable for exterior use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. This is an exterior-rated timber awning window suitable for standard South African residential wall openings. Timber windows should be properly sealed, painted, and maintained to ensure longevity in exterior applications, particularly in coastal or high-humidity environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat timber sections are used in this window?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe timber sections are: Head 56mm x 44mm, Cill 44mm x 44mm, Stiles 44mm x 44mm, and Opening Casement Section 34mm x 44mm. These are standard mid-level timber window profiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the lead time for delivery?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe current lead time is 12–14 days from order confirmation.
