Default Installing a UPVC window upside-down...

Hi friends,

I would like to install a UPVC window upside-down. It is this style of window:

I want to install it so that the opening section is at the bottom. I'm guessing that I simply need to unscrew the hinges, and then screw them back on in a new position. The mushroom keeps would also need screwing onto the opposite side of the opening, so that they will be at the bottom when the window is installed. (It has this type of shootbolt espag mechanism):

Am I missing anything? Any tips on repositioning the hinges, etc?

Many thanks,

Al-T
