WIndows FWS 60 ALU-Dorato (HVHZ)
High-performance mullion/transom façade with 60 mm face width – the basis for a variety of solutions (Aluminium Hurricane Curtain Wall System, Panel Walls, Curtain Walls).
The Schüco FWS 60 façade system is an impressive basic system for façades and skylight areas with a high level of flexibility and attractive design options, including optimised fabrication and installation processes. Thanks to a broad system range, solutions for the most varied requirements and applications can be implemented.
A transparent system solution integrated in the profile for spandrel safety barriers blends seamlessly and elegantly into the external façade appearance. The required safety barrier loading for floor-to-ceiling opening units and low spandrel heights can be implemented with consistent profile face widths and a continuous profile.
The mullion/transom façade with 60 mm face widths offers a high degree of design freedom with a large selection of pressure plates and façade cover caps as well as the combination with Schüco window, door and sliding systems. System-optimised components guarantee the simple and reliable integration of electrical components, e.g. for automated Schüco door or sun shading installations.
Benefits:
- Profile-integrated spandrel safety barrier for floor-to-ceiling opening units and low spandrels ensure a minimalist and harmonious façade appearance.
- Wide selection of pressure plate profiles and façade cover caps, also in stainless steel, for the most varied of design requirements.
- Integration of diverse insert units from Schüco window, doors and sliding systems.

Fittings
With activPilot Concept, a fitting system has been created, which sets itself apart on the market with its special design and impresses with functionality and operating comfort. The intelligent, clearly-structured modular activPilot system offers window builders significantly improved processing efficiency, in particular due to the drastically reduced number of components. With its future-orientated design, activPilot also sets itself apart visually on the market with its special design and shines with an innovative external appearance.
The new locking system, the option of an easy security technology upgrade and a range of other attractive additional functions are just some of the arguments in favour of the activPilot fitting system, which leaves planners lots of room for the design and implementation.
The fully concealed turn-tilt fitting system
With activPilot Select, Winkhaus offers a fully concealed turn-tilt fitting, which means that the visual advantage of invisibility can also be achieved for heavy windows and doors up to 150 kg. A fitting system that is easy to install thanks to its intelligent modular construction, and that can be modified to reflect changing requirements at any stage.
Innovative technology that adds hidden strength:
activPilot Select opens up a new world of opportunities to window and building component manufacturers. Sashes weighing up to 150 kg with a surface area of 3 m² are easy to handle with this innovative turn-tilt fitting. activPilot Select therefore fulfils modern architectural requirements in new buildings and restoration work, also with regard to energy efficiency. Now, large-surface triple glazing is no problem. The standard activPilot Select model will bear up to 100 kg. It is also possible to increase the load bearing capacity from 100 kg to max. 150 kg at a later stage. Two easily retrofittable add-on components are all you need.
Flexible configuration – fast installation
activPilot Select’s user-friendly design offers window builders vastly simplified and accelerated installation and adjustment of the fittings with no special tools. No need for special drilling or complicated milling when producing windows. Locking points can be moved right into the corners – for more stability and safety. Depending on the sash weight, sashes can be fitted by a single qualified employee.
The window fitting system with parallel action
Compared with conventional turn and tilt windows, the activPilot Comfort PADK offers another opening dimension in addition to the “turn” and “tilt” opening positions: “parallel action”. The sash is disconnected parallel to the frame. This creates an approx. 6 mm wide air gap, which guarantees a natural and safe ventilation in any weather. We intentionally took a different path in the development of the activPilot Comfort PADK fitting. The Tilt-First operating sequence has the advantage that the fitting is extremely smooth-running and enables high production tolerances. The operating sequence, which is coming more widely accepted on the market, offers additional security and is frequently used in nurseries, single homes, apartment blocks and residential homes for the elderly.
The special feature here is the dual function of the crosswise handle position: If the handle is moved to the crosswise position from below, the fitting is in the tilt position. If the handle is turned another 90° to the 180° position, the sash is in parallel action position. If the handle is turned back to the 90° position, the window sash can be moved to the turn position.
To close the window, the handle must be turned downwards to the initial position. A further benefit is that the activPilot Concept modular system can also be used for activPilot Comfort PADK.
The natural air exchange in parallel action is proven to create a healthy indoor climate. The special feature: This position offers the same protection from burglary as in the close state – burglary-resistance according to DIN EN 1627 – 1630 up to resistance class RC 2 is possible. The innovation: burglary-resistant ventilation!
