European Tilt-and-Turn Windows NYC & NJ
European Window Systems
Komar Stroy supplies and installs European tilt-and-turn window systems across New Jersey, New York City, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, with supply nationwide. We work with architects, general contractors, developers, and homeowners — from single-family window replacement to full multi-family and commercial glazing packages.
European tilt-and-turn windows operate on a multi-point locking mechanism that draws the sash tight against a continuous perimeter gasket. Compared with standard North American double-hung units, that produces a substantially better air and water seal. The same hardware lets the window tilt inward at the top for secure ventilation, or swing fully open for cleaning and egress.
uPVC and Aluminum Systems
We offer both uPVC and thermally broken aluminum.
uPVC frames deliver the strongest thermal performance per dollar and never need painting or refinishing. They suit residential replacement work and mid-rise multi-family projects where energy performance and budget both matter.
Thermally broken aluminum carries larger glass areas on narrower sightlines — the right choice for contemporary architecture, storefront-adjacent openings, and any project calling for slim profiles or oversized operable units. Aluminum also accepts a far wider finish range, including custom RAL powder coating and anodized finishes.
Glazing and Performance
All systems are available with double or triple glazing, low-E coatings, warm-edge spacers, and argon fill. Rather than quote a catalog U-factor, we model the specific assembly for your project so the number on the submittal matches what gets installed.
Acoustic glazing packages are available for buildings near rail corridors, highways, or flight paths — a common requirement across the five boroughs and northern New Jersey.
What We Handle
Our scope covers field measurement, shop drawings, engineering coordination, factory ordering, delivery, installation, and closeout. We produce stamped shop drawings in-house and coordinate directly with the architect of record on submittals and approvals.
Installation is performed by our own crews. Windows are set to manufacturer specification with proper flashing, air sealing, and interior finish coordination — the details that decide whether a high-performance window actually performs once it is in the wall.
European Windows for NYC Homes and Commercial Buildings
Komar Stroy is a European window company serving New York City and New Jersey from Teterboro. For homeowners we replace standard double-hung units with European tilt-and-turn and casement windows. For developers, general contractors and building owners we supply and install full window packages on multi-family and commercial projects, with in-house shop drawings and our own installation crews.
We work in all five boroughs, Long Island and Westchester, across New Jersey, and in Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, and we supply systems nationwide.

Tilt-and-Turn, Casement, Fixed and Hung Windows
Tilt-and-turn windows tilt inward at the top for secure ventilation and swing fully open for cleaning and egress. Casement windows swing open on side hinges and seal on multi-point locks. Fixed windows maximize glass where no ventilation is needed. For buildings that want the look of a classic American hung window in aluminum, the Schüco AWS 75 VS is a vertical sliding window with tilt-to-clean.
Casement and Tilt-and-Turn Windows in Staten Island
At the Pierpont Place Residence in Staten Island, we supplied and installed 17 custom European tilt-and-turn windows in the Aluplast IDEAL 4000 uPVC system. We serve Staten Island and the other four boroughs with the same team that handles measurement, ordering and installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are European tilt-and-turn windows?
A tilt-and-turn window opens two ways from one handle: it tilts inward at the top for secure ventilation, or swings fully open like a door for cleaning and egress. Multi-point locking draws the sash tight against a continuous gasket, which gives a much better air and water seal than a standard double-hung window.
Should I choose uPVC or aluminum windows?
uPVC (Aluplast IDEAL 4000) gives the strongest insulation per dollar and suits residential replacement and multi-family work. Thermally broken aluminum (Aluprof, Reynaers, Schüco) carries larger glass on slimmer frames and takes any RAL color, which suits contemporary architecture and commercial projects.
What U-factor do your windows achieve?
Aluplast IDEAL 4000 uPVC windows are rated 0.20–0.26 and our aluminum windows 0.18–0.28. Schüco windows are rated to NFRC 100 at 0.24 with double glazing and 0.17 with triple glazing. Every project receives values for the exact units ordered.
