"Hinged windows" are windows in which the sash can be rotated by means of a vertically mounted fitting
.When specifying the opening direction, a distinction is made between "left" and "right".
The opening directions are differentiated into DIN-left and DIN-right in the sense of a clear language regulation.
DIN-left:

The door / window is viewed from the direction in which it opens.
In this example, we are talking about a door that opens to the left.
Since door/window hinges are also on the left, they are referred to as left-hand hinges.
Left-hand locks must be used.
DIN-right:

The door / window is viewed from the direction in which it opens.
In this example, we are talking about a door that opens to the DIN right.
Since door/window hinges are also located on the right, they are referred to as legal hinges.
Right-hand locks must be used.
