Before installation, accurate measurements of the window and door openings are taken to ensure a proper fit. The openings are prepared by removing any existing windows or doors, cleaning the surrounding area, and inspecting the structural integrity of the walls.
The selection of windows and doors is an important step. Factors to consider include material (such as wood, vinyl, aluminum, or fiberglass), style (such as casement, double-hung, sliding, or French doors), energy efficiency, security features, and aesthetic preferences. Once chosen, the windows and doors are ordered to the required specifications.
Existing windows and doors are carefully removed, taking care to avoid damage to the surrounding walls or frames. Any necessary repairs or adjustments to the frame or wall openings are made to ensure a secure and proper fit for the new windows and doors.
