Hi friends,

The UPVC window in the link below is exactly the size I need.
However, I'd like to install it so the opening part is side-hung
rather than horizontally hung. In other words, I want to rotate it 90
degrees, so that the half-way divider is vertical. Apart from needing
to drill new drain holes on the new 'bottom' edge of the frame, can
anyone see any problem with this?

Many thanks, Al

You may need to re-pack your sealed units ... to make sure they are
loading in right direction onto frame.
