Double-glazed windows are increasingly attracting customers with their advantages. You can often see how in the houses where wooden windows were installed, the owners change them to more modern analogues. Moreover, the price is quite reasonable, and washing the windows has become two times easier. For the hostess, this is an important detail, especially if the apartment is on the seventh or tenth floor.
But any replacement begins with measurements. If you call specialists, they will measure the PVC windows. Typically, metering is included in the cost of the call, and in some companies the call of the meter is free provided that they place an order. The surveyor carefully examines the openings in order to pre-specify the installation possibilities and problems that may arise. If you decide to save money and independently dismantle and measure the windows, then you should approach this issue in good faith, but it is better to consult professionals in advance.
Now on the market there is a huge selection of modern tools that greatly simplify the measurement of PVC windows. This is, first of all, laser roulette and laser level. The options are various, among them - a mini-kit that includes both devices at once. These tools allow you to determine the size of the openings, being at a small distance. Regardless of the company that produced the instruments, laser instruments increase the level of measurement accuracy and simplify the work itself.
Now, in order to measure the
PVC windows, the installer will not need to build additional scaffolding in order to climb to the window. True, this is more true for those objects where it is necessary to make measurements in large quantities. Especially if it is high ceilings or prepared openings for glazing, where you need to urgently take measurements. Here you can’t do without
laser roulette . All work can be completed in a few hours. If you use ordinary roulette, then the measurements can take several days. This can increase the lead time for the manufacture of windows, which means delay the delivery of the facility.
To
replace the windows in the apartment, the old grandfather method, that is, the use of ordinary roulette, is quite suitable. Here, the main thing is not to make a mistake in size. But the presence of good and high-quality devices raises the status of the company. A well-dressed measurer came to you, in his hands he has modern devices that allow quality and quick measurement of PVC windows. All this gives weight to the company itself and its employees. Especially if after all the measurements you have made quality windows and installed at the same high level. But this is probably still from the realm of fiction.
If, nevertheless, you decide to do all the work yourself, in order to save money, then start with a project at home. Often at the summer cottage, the owner himself erects his log cabin, makes a measurement of windows, cuts openings. And you have to do this with the tool that is available. Therefore, here the best advice would be a rephrased folk proverb. Do the plastic windows 7 times, and only then order.
