“The fully reversible

unique easy close

window hinge has several
additional features alongside
the easy close functionality,
including full rotation for
cleaning – making it the
perfect choice for upper floor
residential and commercial
upper floor windows.
Built with the user in mind,
the Verso’s design offers
an extremely high level of
functionality. For practicality
and convenience, the sash
rotates fully on the outside
of the building, ensuring no
damage to window blinds,
curtains or internal window
displays.
Likewise, the geometry
does not allow the sash to
rotate above the height of the
frame. This ensures that there
are no issues in recessed
installations or those with
protrusions above the
window.
Grant Stratford, Technical
Director for Yale Door
and Window Solutions,
comments: “the Yale Verso
window hinge has been
designed to be both user-
friendly and secure. It can
be used in flush casement
windows, making it ideal for
use in residential upper floor
applications.”
The hinge is available
in six module sizes to
accommodate sash heights
ranging from 460mm to
1,500mm, and accessories
are available to enable
manufacturers to achieve PAS

ON THE NINTH DAY: 59
HOUSES WERE SECURED
» » TIGER LOCKS HAS
secured 59 doors on an estate
in West Yorkshire in just nine
days, after a spate of burglaries
in the area, using Ultion.
The new-build estate had
been fitted with basic cylinders
that can be snapped in less
than 10 seconds. With around
900 homes broken into through
the door every day, and 85%
of these through snapping,
homeowners are becoming
increasingly worried about
their safety. Local locksmiths
are coming to their aid and
protecting their homes.
Michael Brown, of Tiger
Locks commented: “I actually
live on this estate and I posted

doors. After a recent incident
the enquiries flooded in and
I’ve had to work weekends to
cope with demand.”
Steve Stewart, CEO of Brisant
Secure concluded: “Latest
figures show that 217,350 homes
were added to the housing
stock for 2016-2017. We have to
question how many of these had

door cylinder fitted on all exit
doors, as locksmiths such as
Tiger Locks are seemingly fitting
them en masse after localised
break ins.”
