The Lorimer reversible window.
The Lorimer reversible gets its name from its ability to swing outward through 180° and the clever, lightweight mechanism makes opening the window a real breeze. It has a contemporary, chamfered shape externally and is perfect for first floor rooms and flats or kitchens and bathrooms where taps may prevent the window from opening inwards.

Effortless function and design.
Its design means you can easily open the window without disturbing your curtains, blinds or ornaments on your sill.
Additionally, it has an ingenious built-in restrictor and anti-slam hinges, meaning the window can be held open in various points for ventilation and cleaning, and won’t blow shut if the window catches in the wind.
