ask to speak to the building manager

The head appears to sag, but if the door opens without rubbing then this is not the problem. Ask the supervisor he may know the reason.

Thanks

send me a drawing of what you want...I'll give you a price... how about the rest of your house?

Ask the window company to explain how they are taken out. If they won't come out that way then it's a problem for your builder to solve with the supplier.

Hi
Yes, I am aware of the logarithmic scale for decibels, I can only say what I know... I am sure perceptions differ for all sort of reasons. Maybe you're right.

There should be a security feature on the head of the window to prevent the sash from being lifted out. This is called an anti-lift device. open the window and…

Hi Alex,
Because our perception of sound is subjective we can hear low volume sounds and high volume sounds and they can appear similar because our hearing compensates.
My analogy would be…

Hi Ral21
95% of the noise stopping power of a window is the total glass thickness... following that there are tweaks that make a tweaking difference, like different glass thicknesses in…

Hi
The orientation of the glass is irrelevant, it has the same noise stopping power either way.
Ed

Possibly email me what you want with pics of that door.
Thanks

I know lots of south west areas.
You have a problem.
Are the windows compliant? An inspector may not give you a C of O, if you can't prove compliance to AS2047…

Yes you can do this, but these days the glass balustrade will need a handrail in Australia set at 1m. Toughened glass 10mm thick. fastened 4 corners every metre.

Wow... Your prices are out of this world. We can do double glazed throughout at around $10,000 for ALL of your windows, not an upgrade. Our window beats some thermally…

I'd put my money on the balcony being the problem.

Oh well, sorry I couldn't help... BTW if my example was real glass it would be dearer than the door... I like it.

Hi
There are millions of options in film... just search decorative window film on eBay etc...
This one is on eBay

I would engage the inspector now and ask them to sort this out. I would have a personal policy that I will not attend unless my representative is afforded free…

Hi
How old are these windows & what brand are they? Should be on the pull handle.
The simple solution is to remove this glazing rubber on 2 edges of each glass…

I am fairly sure the problem is the Juliet Balcony which is unsealed... share some pics.
Thanks

I really doubt your door is the problem...

Depends upon where you are up to in the process (how late in the day you are asking for changes), and the supplier and the builder. But it does seem…

I agree. I assume they are listed elsewhere in the world.

They're not on the website

I think that the only passive house certified windows in Australia are done by these guys... imported from Europe... likely $3,000/m2 +

When we developed the EcoTech window, we developed at the same time its identical twin with a thermally broken frame fully expecting this to yield a significant improvement in…

No I don't need to check with anyone... the measure is all that matters. I never said that the frames don't contribute to heat loss, every part of a window…

They both supply 38mm and 40mm.

At the end of the day, it is the Uw that the window achieves which decides what the energy performance is, it is not the style, not the configuration, not…
