1. Maximum wind protection – helps to avoid the risk of the sash being squeezed out even in high winds. It is an additional guarantee of warm windows.
2. Microventilation – the ability to open the window sash for micro-ventilation. Air enters the room without creating a draft.
3. Balcony latch is an element of Winkhaus fittings that has gained great popularity in the Republic of Moldova. The balcony latch is installed even for windows with other fittings.
4. Step-by-step ventilation system. Depending on the time of year, when you want to increase the air flow into the room, or vice versa, reduce it - the step-by-step ventilation system allows you to easily regulate the air flow. Multi-stage tilt MSL OS acts as a sash closer and provides 5 tilt positions for ventilation.
5. Manual adjustment of the pressure of the sash to the frame. There is a winter and summer clamp. Designed for standard kit.
6. Sash tilt limiter – designed to fix the sash in the tilted position. Thanks to the limiter, the draft will not close the sash.
7. A child safety lock is an important piece of hardware to keep your child safe. The lock is located at the bottom of the window sash. The door is locked with a key, which is recommended to be stored in a place inaccessible to children. When the window is closed, the sash opens only in the tilt position.
8. Additional anti-burglary hooks are installed around the perimeter of the sash at the required points. Designed to provide additional security to the window, thus making the window more resistant to intrusion attempts.

What problems could a window have?
The fittings installed on the window from the manufacturer's factory, although they are metal, but time has made its own adjustments in any case, for example, over time, the window sash can sag under its own weight and this directly affects the tightness of the sash to the frame, which can cause drafts that will be felt very strongly in winter. But this can and should be corrected. Plastic windows adjustment can be done independently.
How to adjust the window yourself?
Before you start working on the window, you need to assemble a small tool. You will need a 4 mm hexagon, a Phillips screwdriver and lubricating oil. When all the tools are assembled, you can get to work. If you feel that there is a blow from the window, then most likely the problem lies in the window pressure. To do this, you need to find oval-shaped cylinders on the end of the sash, which are called trunnions. There are corresponding holes on the frame into which the trunnions fit when the handle is turned. This design ensures that the sash is pressed against the frame. The clamping force is adjusted by moving the holes on the frame or turning the trunnions.
To increase the clamping force, it is necessary to turn the eccentric with its protruding part towards the inside of the window. To reduce the force, you need to do the opposite operation, that is, turn the trunnion with the protruding part outward.
Important point! The sash should fit a little more tightly in winter and a little less in summer, since depending on the temperature, the plastic tends to expand and contract. This also needs to be taken into account.
As you can see, adjusting plastic windows is a fairly simple task that you can handle yourself.
