- 2-leaf with French casement.
- Also available as 1-leaf (see Opening functions).
- The sash stops at 90°.

Egress doors – Fitted with an internal opening handle only.- The espagnolette handle in the master door-leaf has a ventilation position in the striking plates.
- Freeing the flushbolt in the French casement mullion allows the slave door to be opened.
- Three-four concealed, corrosion-proof hinges (adjustable when choosing the 24mm threshold).
- The friction arm is made of steel with a grey corrosion proof zinc-aluminium surface treatment.
To hold the master door-leaf in an open position (calm weather-conditions only):- An espagnolette with a handle-operated brake, which can keep the master door-leaf in a random open position from approx. 10-85° (applicable for door-leafs wider than 850mm and higher than 1950mm), OR
- A standard espagnolette handle combined with an adjustable friction arm, which can hold the master door-leaf open under calm weather conditions. Master door-leafs narrower than 851mm or lower than 1950mm always have this solution.
- The slave door-leaf is also fitted with an adjustable friction arm, which can hold the door-leaf open under calm weather conditions.
NOTE: The handle-operated brake / friction arm should only be used to hold the door in an open position when weather conditions are calm. In inclement conditions the door should always be closed to ensure damage to the element or brake mechanism is not incurred.
Threshold- 15mm HELO® threshold in a grey hardwearing surface finish or
- 24mm alu/PA threshold or
- 52mm pine threshold with aluminium tread-plate.
- Casement doors are available with 180° hinges, but with this option each door leaf can be no more than 1000mm wide and there may also be restrictions on glass weight.
- The 180° hinge is not possible in combination with the handle operated brake.
- In order to open fully with 180° hinge, the casement door should be set back by a maximum of 50mm from the facade.
- Ventilation: Adjustable friction arms are not designed for use in windy conditions. In such conditions the door should be closed or otherwise secured.
- Installation: Requires a minimum distance of 10mm for the sealant between frame and wall. If sidehung sashes are hinged next to each other, a gap of 15mm between frames is required.
