Fire Escape Window

    A window is 850mm wide and 1700mm high, with a uPVC join horizontally across the centre dividing it into two panes.

    The top pane is hinged along the top horizontal and swings outwards.

    The bottom pane therefore measures 850mm wide (33.5'') and 850mm high (33.5''), and this is hinged along the *vertical*. This bottom pane is a fire escape window.

    Considering the size, would this bottom double-glazed pane (uPVC frame) require a heavy duty hinge on the vertical?

    Hinged along the vertical, can this fire escape window swing *into* the room, or is it best to have it swing out?
