About Windows & Doors
Measuring the opening the right way
Width and height are taken brick to brick in 3 spots: top, middle, bottom. The smallest reading sets the frame size after a 10 mm fitting gap all around. Old houses may have out-of-square frames, so note the diagonal difference. Never trust a quote based on rough measurements taken by phone.
Frame style and how it fits the wall
Choose the frame style to match your wall opening. Casement frames swing open, tilt-and-turn frames tilt in, and fixed frames do not open. Check the reveal depth in millimetres so the frame sits flush with plaster. Ask the fitter to confirm the wall makeup before ordering a profile.
Disposal of the old units
Old glass and timber frames count as construction waste and should not go in a normal bin. Ask the fitter to break down the old units on site and take them away, leaving the driveway clean. Keep the waste transfer note with your invoice for proof of legal disposal.
Common mistakes during fitting
Foam filling the entire gap stops the frame from moving with temperature changes. Packers left behind under the sill create cold bridges. Silicone applied over dirty trim peels within months. Ask the fitter how they seal the perimeter and how they pack the frame before screwing it in.
Acoustic glass for busy streets
If you face a road or railway, acoustic laminated glass cuts noise by 6 to 10 decibels over standard double glazing. The panes have a sticky interlayer that dampens vibration. Ask for the Rw rating in writing and compare it across quotes rather than trusting vague terms like soundproof.
Security fittings to look for
Windows should carry PAS 24 or Secured by Design certification. Multi-point locking on doors needs hooks at the top and bottom, not just a centre latch. Ask for 3-star euro cylinders, anti-snap barrels, and hinge bolts on the inside frame. A 1-star cylinder is too easy to bypass.
Ironmongery that survives daily use
Hinges, handles and multi-point locks carry the weight of the door every day. Stainless steel or marine-grade hinges resist rust near coastal air. Ask how many locking points the strip has, and check that cylinders carry a current security rating rather than a brand logo alone.
How long installation takes
A standard casement window swap takes 1 to 2 hours per unit. A full house of 8 to 10 windows usually finishes in 2 days. Front doors take 3 to 5 hours, French doors up to a full day. Rendering, plaster touch-ups, or structural repairs add extra time to the schedule.
U-value and what it means for your bill
The U-value measures heat loss through the whole unit, frame plus glass. Lower numbers mean better insulation. A standard double-glazed unit sits around 1.4, while better options drop to 1.0 or below. Ask the supplier for the certified U-value for the exact frame and glass combination you order.
Picking the right window frame
Frames come in uPVC, aluminium, timber, or composite. uPVC needs little care and holds heat well. Aluminium is slimmer but adds thermal breaks to fight condensation. Timber looks classic but asks for repainting every 6 to 8 years. Ask the fitter which profile rating matches your wall and local weather.
