The Cabernet Tilt’N’Slide™ design allows the window to open easily and lock into any position for increased flexibility. Now exterior glass can be cleaned quickly and safely from inside the house. Homeowners can breathe easy with increased ventilation because they can now open their windows all the way.
Cabernet's Tilt’N’Slide™ also provides peace of mind in an emergency situation, opening fully to allow fast and easy egress.
 |
Not all tilt-in window hardware is created equal. Tilt’N’Slide™ is the safest tilt-in hardware on the market today. Only Tilt’N’Slide™ securely locks the sash to the frame before tilting inward, preventing it from falling and injuring the homeowner and eliminating liability issues for the manufacturer. Other hardware systems only apply brake pressure, increasing the possibility of the sash falling out of the frame before the brakes are fully engaged.
|
|
Cabernet's Tilt’N’Slide™ features a calliper brake system that clamps the sash like a vice while competitors use an expanding shoe brake system that relies on friction between plastic hardware and a PVC frame.
|
|
 |
The Cabernet's Anti-Swing Lock feature is made of high-performance DuPont™ Delrin® which allows the sash to be locked into any open position.
Cabernet's Tilt’N’Slide™ also allows for a quick escape in emergency situations, because windows can be opened further and faster than conventional windows.
|
|
Simply swing your Tilt'N'Slide™ window into any desired position and extend the anti-swing lever on the swing shoe to lock the position of the sash in the desired position. The use of DuPont™ Delrin® provides superior friction locking instead of common PVC materials, ensuring a positive lock every time.
To close the window, simply depress the lever on the swing shoe. The window is then free to swing closed. Should the window be accidentally forced to close, the swing shoe lever will automatically move into the release position, preventing breakage of the hardware.
Our “Reputation for Excellence” is clear to see! B.F. Rich's Cabernet line has the option of Simulated True Divided Lites (STDL's). Vinyl grids are applied to the inside and outside glass surface, offering the beauty of true divided lite appearance with the convenience and durability of a vinyl window. Cabernet truly rivals wood windows in beauty with the bonus of maintenance-free construction.
Historic Replacement Windows
Original aesthetics, ease of operation, tilt-in cleaning and energy efficiency are all found in the Cabernet window with beveled interior sash and optional Simulated True Divided Lite grilles. STDL's offer the original look of wood grilles with interior and exterior surface mounted grilles to satisfy the most discrete buyer.
