How to buy a great window without overpayments?
1. Selection of salon/seller
It is a mistake to think that choosing a seller based on a recommendation is a sure way to avoid risks. After all, what suits another person is not a fact that will suit you In order not to overpay or, on the contrary, not to save in damage, we recommend consulting at least 3-4 salons.
What questions should I start with when choosing a seller?
- What profile systems are offered in the salons, their advantages ?
- Are there quality certificates for products, check their relevance?
- What technologies does the supplier use to produce the profile? We do not recommend choosing Turkish and Chinese profile systems.
- What accessories are used in the manufacture of the window, the presence and type of armor, the presence of a remote frame in the window, seals.
*armir is a steel element that is installed in the middle of a plastic profile.
* the distance frame is the part of the double-glazed window frame that separates the sheets of glass by a specific distance.
Pay attention to:
In order not to regret the next 10-20 years, it is necessary to find out the competence of the manager
- Availability of a diploma from the system manufacturer;
- The manager must ask you questions about where you plan to install the window (house or apartment) which floor the apartment is on, which side the windows face, the purpose of the room, whether you live in a noisy area, whether you have children or pets;
- Common signs of professionalism are literacy of speech, politeness, involvement in your situation.
2. Complete set
Double-glazed windows occupy 80% of the window and the main heat loss occurs through it Therefore, choosing a good profile, hardware, one should not ignore such an important component of the window.
To make the room comfortable at any time of the year, it is important to:
- The minimum permissible configuration of the double-glazed window must be made of 3 glasses;
- At least one of the glasses must be energy-saving;
- Argon gas should be used to increase the indicator;
- We recommend a thickness of the double-glazed window of at least 32 mm. This increases the level of heat and noise insulation.

- Standard, we recommend if only the basic functions are important to you, which are responsible for the process of opening/closing the flap in a folding or swing-folding way Such models are the most popular and affordable;
- Reinforced, we recommend in the case of installing a large window to facilitate its opening;
- Double-sided, recommended for balcony door;
- Removable, recommended if the window is installed in a confined, cramped space, as well as if you have small children;
- Handles with a key, recommended to ensure the safety of your child;
- Handles with an anti-burglary mechanism are recommended if you want to protect your home from burglaries
To choose the right window, answer the following questions:
The false misconception is that the window from one profile system is good, and from the other – it is no good. All systems are designed for one purpose or another, and they should be selected based on your situation and preferences.
- Where will the window be located and how do you plan to use it?
- What size is the window?
- Who will mainly use it?
- Do you need special fittings to reduce the area used by the movable parts of the window?
- How high is the risk of window damage?
3. Construction
The size of the structure plays a huge role, since its weight is quite significant and the possibilities of the hardware are not limitless All decisions related to the design of the window system, trust only professionals The main nuances:
If the window is planned above the 8th floor, it is recommended to install a reinforced reinforcement, if the area of the doors is more than 16 m², then it is better to install a double-glazed window with glass of at least 6 mm, additionally use the technology of gluing the double-glazed window into the door.
In the case when the structure needs to be made more rigid or to provide maximum ventilation, ease of glass care,
it is recommended to divide one large structure into several or a dimensional leaflet divided by an impost for structural strength
and resistance to deformation.

Pay attention to the thickness and shape of the reinforcing profile, because it is responsible for the rigidity and reliability
of the window structure, its resistance to various types of loads
(mechanical, wind, shrinkage).

4.Design
To make the window perfectly fit into the overall interior of the room and the exterior of the building, the salons offer a fairly wide range of additional elements in different colors and styles. For example:
- The handle occupies 80% of the aesthetics of the design appearance;
- Different colors of lamination can be used inside the room and for the facade;
- You can use the decoration of double-glazed windows with springs;
- The glass can be tinted.
A modern plastic window is not only a number of components from different manufacturers, with a wide range of parameters, quality and cost. Compliance with the assembly and installation technologies of structures also affect the service life and reliability of windows.
5. Installation
Conventional installation on foam in a few years will give the effect of cold slopes, since foam, even with good warm slopes, tends to slightly change its physical properties. Solution options:
6. Purchase price
When comparing prices in salons, it is important to take into account the entire order package. It is not necessary to focus on the discount or price on the site, request a full calculation of the order according to your requirements. Otherwise, the invoice will be significantly higher than the price discussed at the start.What are the components?
