Spectre Window Australian Series Winder Operated Aluminum Window with Timber Subframe
Reviewed pricing, lead time, freight, and final configuration are confirmed during quote review before order release.
The factory shows three layout families: a winder sash beside a fixed lite, stacked sash and fixed combinations, and frosted glass privacy variants, all with dark mesh screen panels integrated and black winder operators at the sill. The timber subframe arrives with the window, giving the installer a square, plumb reveal that the aluminum frame fixes into, with architrave and cladding closing against the timber. The winder hardware reads as ventilating awning style operation; the factory lists the series as a swing window, so the hinge orientation for your build is confirmed during quote review. Sizing is engineered per opening, and frames are finished in one of eight standard colors.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the winder do?
A sill mounted crank opens and closes the ventilating sash, holding it at any position. It is the standard operator on Australian style ventilating windows and stays reachable behind benches and furniture.
Why does it come with a timber subframe?
Australian construction fixes windows into a timber reveal. The factory supplies the subframe painted white and sized to the window, so the site gets a square reveal and clean architrave lines without milling timber locally.
Which way does the sash hinge?
The winder hardware reads as awning style ventilating operation, and the factory lists the series as a swing window. The hinge orientation for your build is confirmed with the factory during quote review.
Is there an insect screen?
Yes. The shown layouts integrate dark mesh screen panels alongside the operable sashes.
