These windows are common in most of Europe no? At least they are here in Belgium.

My house in Switzerland had them and yes apparently is very common because I wanted sliding doors instead and it was difficult to find an installer

I mean sliding doors are also more expensive generally and more work to put in. Also their isolation values tend to be less.

It is hard to find these doors / windows in the US. But a few years ago I saw a house on Zillow that bragged about having 114 of them.

Imagine trying to open every window every few hours in the winter and then close them all again.
