Or is it? The outstanding performance of the System 4500 window design is one of North America’s best-kept fenestration secrets. uPVC windows not only far exceed aluminum on thermal performance; they can also meet the highest available structural standards. – Fusion-welded corners enhance structural strength and offer a cleaner finish – Dual overlapping compression seals resist air and water infiltration – Specific chambers on main profiles (frames, sashes and mullions) accept galvanized steel reinforcement – Insulated glass up to 1 3/8 in (35 mm) thick achieves U-factors down to 0.18 – Multi-point locking system increases security – ADA-compliant hardware solutions achieve disability design goalsuper
Properties
The handle is a prominent feature of a window system and it speaks volumes about the engineering developments that lie behind the PVC profile walls.
Beyond opening and closing the sash, a well-designed handle protects your home from unauthorized entry through a window or door. Our desire to increase the intrinsic safety of window and door systems motivated us to introduce the REHAU LINEATM handle design.
The REHAU LINEA design handle
Equipped with a patented Secustik closing mechanism, when a LINEA handle is turned, it is locked with a click.
The connecting element between the handle and the spindle acts as a “mechanical diode.” This element ensures the normal operation of the window handle from the inside, and at the same time blocks any attempt to activate the mechanism from the outside.
