Sliding windows with double glazing
You want to keep sliding windows, but you want them with double glazing? Wijnands is the right party to help you with this. Through our passion for historic buildings, we have specialized in preserving the original appearance of your building. When replacing your sash window with a double glazed sash window we ensure that the authentic appearance of your windows remains the same. Craftsmanship, communication and guaranteed quality are key at Wijnands.
Advantages of double glazed sliding window
At Wijnands we understand that the appearance of your premises is important. This appearance is largely determined by your frames and windows. However, older sash windows often have a number of disadvantages, such as draughts, rattling or fogging windows, poor heat and sound insulation or even rotting. In order to increase your living comfort and reduce your energy bill, you can choose to replace your sash window by a sash window with double glazing.
Wijnands is a leading company for this job. Part of the wooden components required for your new double glazed (HR++) sliding window are made in our own workshop, the other part is delivered by our professional and reliable partners. With these tailor-made parts we preserve the authenticity of your building. The installation of sash windows with double glazing offers a solution for all the aforementioned problems. We make sure that your house is better insulated, that you are no longer bothered by draughts and that the bustle of the city no longer keeps you awake at night.
Our projects
How the new sash window is installed
In order to preserve the historical character of your building, we make sure that the elements of your old sash window are preserved as well as possible. We remove the old elements before we place the new, custom-made window in the frame. Then we seal off all gaps, so that you will no longer suffer from draughts with the new windows. We do this by placing frame seals. Finally, we paint everything neatly, so that your building looks brand new again.
If your old sash window has a traditional rope system, we will make sure to replace the old system with a new one that has the original look. Your new sliding window can be opened and closed smoothly by means of pulleys and a rope. This way your new double glazed sliding window will not only keep its authentic character on the outside, but also on the inside.
Depending on the state of the old window frame, the window will be installed in the existing frame, or a new wooden frame will be used. We make sure that your double glazed sliding window looks as exact as possible like the original sliding window. In monumental buildings, for example, it is sometimes allowed to place monumental glass in a copy of the original sash. However, it is important that you make an inventory beforehand of the things that are and are not allowed without a permit for your monumental building.
Warranty
In addition to preserving the historical and authentic character of your premises, Wijnands always puts quality first. Which is why we value clear and transparent communication. We take the time for you and for the job; we go over all your wishes before starting the work. Should any questions arise during the job, you can always contact the foreman of the project or our office. In this way, together we ensure that there is direct contact, honest communication and guaranteed quality at all times.
Furthermore, we offer a ten-year guarantee on window frames and windows. This guarantee applies, for example, to problems with water and wind tightness and colour adhesion of the window frames. On glazing, there is a five-year guarantee. This includes for example condensation or dirt between the double glazing. We offer a two-year guarantee on hinges and locks.
