My last little post had a picture of arches being made.
here is the photo of one of the windows being installed.
it went almost perfect today, i had the first window out by 8am, and the new ones fit perfectly with no need to adjust or alter.
Just thought id upload these photos showing me replacing a door stile.

Later today we will go install it.

Yesterday i had to empty the sawdust bins, which had completely overflowed.
If you have never cleaned up massive piles of sawdust, I suggest you try it just so you know you should avoid it.
Cleaning out the sawdust extractor after one of our bins overfilled. aaaaah sawdust, it gets everywhere.
Making new timber sashes based on the old ones given to us. A common issue for timber sashes is they rot in the rain over the years, you cant repair them – you need new ones!

A nice job today, removing old glass, colonial bars, transoms, mullions, sashes and so on. replaced with 10.38 laminate glass for a stronger and safer result, and with a much fuller view to the river (west lakes).
Yesterday, we removed a window at a hairdresser which had been hit by a car.
A meranti 4 panel fixed lite, just under 5meters wide. 10.38 clear laminate glass was used.
Installed this window yesterday, very pleased as we managed to remove the old glass panes from the old sashes, and re-use them in the new window.

The day before we did this – a cedar sliding door and window. up in a horse farm. the view was lovely.

and earler on in the week we finished off some vent locks and 1 window for a job we had done a few months prior
brown aluminium single hung windows with timber surrounds.
This morning, we had 3 bifolds up and screwed in by 9:30am.
I’ve come back to the factory to relax and do this post, whilst the lads struggle on and do the finishing touches. Monday we glaze them.
Here is our job site. timber posts between bifolds.

Here are some photos of some arched windows we recently made. Lots of labour in these, but the end result is a work of art.

We were asked to assess a damaged Bifold that had its active panel ripped off in a windy storm.
This Bifold had its active panel ripped off in a storm.
this is the panel that was pulled off in the wind.
You can see some of the damage to the hinges.
The doors,hinges, perimeter jambs and head, and the seals were all damaged in the storm. only a new bifold would be appropriate, repair was out of the question.
all loaded up the sunday afternoon before the install.
