New home building regulations now make it a necessity for an escape window to be installed, with a clear unobstructed opening of 850mm high x 50m wide as a minimum requirement.
In the case of a fire, this window would be used as a safe exit if access to the ground floor is not possible.
Unlike standard windows which open to a point, Elitis fire escape windows open to reveal a full opening and improved exist space, meaning they satisfy the building regulations requirement for fire escape windows.

Elitis fire escape windows are manufactured using aluminium or our PVCU Elitis Contour sculptured or Elitis Linear chamfered profiles. They have the practical element of being used as a means of escape but have high levels of energy efficiency and security and are available in the same wide range of colours/finishes and glass options as the rest of the Elitis window range.
