Hello,

I hope I am posting in the right subforum.

We want to install a floor-to-ceiling window in our new build that can be opened from the outside with a key (lock system of the front door). That’s not a problem in itself. However, we are now facing the challenge that this window will have an external roller shutter, and a handle on the outside of the window would interfere with the roller shutter. Do you have any suggestions or tips for this?

Thank you in advance.

Hm... I don’t quite understand the purpose here. Windows that can be unlocked from the outside? And then entering through them? Don’t people usually use a door for that?

I’m a bit puzzled about what exactly is being requested here.

We want to install a window here to be able to tilt it. This is not possible with a door. However, this issue has now been resolved. We are now using a different door frame profile for this window. The original profile did not allow the installation of an external handle because otherwise the roller shutters could not be lowered. The new profile, combined with a flat handle, makes this possible.....

I know this isn't much help, but: Why isn’t something like this planned in advance?

Best regards
