Functionality
Form follows function is a principle associated with modern architecture and industrial design in the 20th Century, which states that the shape of a building or object should be predicated or based on its intended function or purpose. This concept is sometimes problematic and open to interpretation. So, we at EPAL take this concept and expand on it by using the genius of “AND” approach.
EPAL windows provide Form and Function.
EPAL’s Functional Features:

- Turn restrictor option prevents the window from opening past a preset point
- Tilt first hardware option reconfigures the gears so that the window tilts first, and then requires a key to turn the window, increasing safety
