How to Fix Stuck Tilt and Turn Window

This video will show you how to fix tilt and turn window problems.

Watch our Everest Expert show you how to solve the problem in seconds by showing you where to press a trigger to release the window.

The most common problems for tilt and turn windows are caused by accidentally pressing a trigger button on the window frame. Usually, after cleaning.

Tilt and turn windows have a double-opening mechanism that allows you to open the window and to select a tilt position.

If they are not operated correctly, they easily become jammed:

• The window becomes stuck in the tilt open position.
• The window feels ‘jammed’ and won’t close.
• The window drops and tilts to one side and won’t close.

NEVER try to close the tilt and turn window if it’s jammed or if you need to force it. You can irreparably damage the double-hinged mechanism on the window.

You sir have just made my night! 4 nights ago this happened to me - with a similar system, my bedroom has been 🥶 🥶 🥶... its very very cold, a typical Scottish winter.
Even with a new 13.5tog I've been absolutely freezing.. I prefer the cold to heat, but not this, it was savagely cold ! Can't believe I couldn't figure this out! You are a saviour as of now ! Thank you so much! 😂

Refitting the bedroom door handle Tomorrow... wish Mr luck.. 🤞 🤞

I can't thank you enough for this video. My window was stuck like this and I was worried sick, couldn't get ahold of my landlord all day and there's a storm brewing outside currently, I would have been up all night making sure the window won't blow open. You're a lifesaver.

Life saviour right here, I had the other type of latch to allow the handle to turn, however instructions were still clear!

Very good, mate, the button on my window was on the top of the frame. But still, I just pressed it, lifted the handle up, and it worked from the first time. Cheers.
