The configurable architecture window AFINO-art

Standard handles are sufficient for windows on difficult-to-access upper floors, but ground floor windows should be fitted with burglar-resistant handle versions.

The lockable handle prevents movement of the hardware and makes it harder to open a broken window by reaching in from the outside. In everyday use it serves as a childproofing means.

The self-locking handle prevents the hardware from being pushed up.

As an extra precaution, families with small children may want to have additional protection against unwanted opening of the window by children. The special tilt-before-turn mechanism ensures that children can only tilt, and not open, the window. The window can only be opened all the way with a key.

Makes it difficult to lever the window open with special mushroom cam locks placed at the corners of the window. Recommended for town houses and terraced houses.

Improves the protection from break-in attempts through additional mushroom cam locks placed around the edges of the window. Recommended for detached homes.

Multiple locks bolted into special steel reinforcement elements maximise the window’s resistance to being pried out and ensures additional loading capability and stability of frame and window as load-bearing components are genaerally screwed into the steel.

The ‘prestressed’ glass is tougher than conventional insulating glass. Already at a thickness of 8 mm the pane is ‘ball-proof’. However, if the pane is acutually destroyed, it breaks into blunt-edged fragments. Toughened safety glass thus provides dual protection: against forceful impacts and against injuries.

The glass panes are bonded to an extremely tough, tear-resistant plastic film that not only ensures the glass is very unlikely to break. Even if the pane were to break the fragments would adhere firmly to the film. And even then it would take a lot of time, effort and tools to penetrate the pane. A higher security class can be achieved by increasing the number of plastic films and glass panes.

Our Weru secur surveillance system is a so-called standalone solution for any individual window. The surveillance system monitors the position of the window sash and window handle. If the sash is closed and the handle is pointing downwards the integrated alarm system is automatically armed. If in this state an attempt is made to lever open the window from outside the system responds immediately by triggering an audible alarm.

• No manual arming of the surveillance unit
• It is impossible to forget to activate or deactivate the alarm
• No key or combination of numbers required
• No false alarms due to incorrect operation

Issues an alarm by emitting a loud acoustic signal when the pane is broken and hence startles before break-in attempts. False alarms are prevented by a dual sensor mechanism (vibration and frequency).

This hardware component provides for partial ventilation. Arresting the sash with the preset gap of 5 mm stops the window from slamming shut.

Prevents window sash slamming shut from gusts of wind by securing the sash in place and enables variable window opening control.

The fresh air intake of the Weru-Fresh ventilator can be individually and finely adjusted via a sliding mechanism. The system can achieve a very high flow rate of 16 m3/h at 4 Pa. The Weru-Fresh ventilator is particularly suitable for detached homes and multi-storey new buildings and refurbishments. This ventilation system is also available with acoustic protection and integrated pollen filter. This means that problem-free ventilation is possible for persons with allergies or residents on streets with heavy traffic.

The Regel-Air ventilation system is a self-regulating system that is installed in the upper section of the window and can be retro-fitted if required. Fresh air supplied from the outside flows laterally over the narrowing seal in the window rebate. In normal operation the preheated air then rises preheated between the sash and the frame through the ventilator below the ceiling into the room. In stormy weather or strong winds the system automatically stays closed, thereby preventing draughts. The Regel-Air has a flow rate of 2.1 m³/h at 4 Pa. Additional benefit of the window rebate ventilator: It shuts out noise, the device can achieve high acoustic insulation values up to acoustic protection class 4 (= 42 dB).

Provides for fresh air in any weather. Air supplied from the outside flows upwards via recessed seals in the rebate and enters the room pre-heated via the special seal. In strong winds the seal pushes against the opening gap to restrict the amount of air flowing in. So even in this situation, basic ventilation is guaranteed and draught effects are avoided. With a fully open seal the system achieves a volume flow of 2.9–3.2 m3/h at 4 Pa. Even when the window is open the ventilation system is not visible either from the outside or from the inside. Weru-Air Comfort achieves high acoustic insulation values up to acoustic protection class 4.

Windows used to be tilted or opened all the way to air out a room. With the innovative Safe&Go ventilation system the top of the sash can be positioned 10 mm from the window frame. What’s special about this is that the window is locked on all sides when in the ventilation position. A basic level of ventilation is provided, but with the burglary deterrence of a closed window. Thus you can safely air out the room and do your errands at the same time. 

• passive demand-controlled window ventilator for ventilation of closed rooms
• functions by pressure equalisation between outside and inside air (pressure differential principle)
• the regulation of air intake is based on the relative humidity
• via a three-stage controller you can select between continuous ventilation, humidity control and minimal ventilation
