How to measure the PVC windows

If you want to know how much about how much the replacement of old windows will turn out, you can make them measurements yourself. After that, it is worth contacting the construction company, and the manager calculates the preliminary cost of window structures. Measurements are made from the inner and outdoor side. This is necessary to calculate the depth of the window opening and the definition of its type (with quarters or without).

Measurements of the window frame in the opening with quarters. The quarter is called the protrusion from the outer part of the wall size from the Polkirpich. Rama comes over a quarter of a quarter of 1-3 cm on each side. From this it follows to calculate the size of the window in width, it is necessary to add 2-6 cm to its outdoor size or slightly less if the opening is selected. Measure the width of the opening from the inside and check the calculated frame width. It should not exceed the inner opening.

The height of the window frame is also made on the outer part of the wall. Behind the top quarter, the window will start at 2 or 3 cm, and the same size must be taken away to account for the coaching profile from below, therefore the window height can be considered a distance measured between the bottom of the window and the upper slope.

If the internal and exterior sizes of the windows coincide - it means that we open without quarters. To calculate its size (a), from the width of the opening (a), 4 cm should be between the width. Such a gap (c) is necessary to ensure the space under the foam and set the window in terms of the level.

The height of the window frame in the opening of no quarters is calculated as follows: from the height of the opening, it is necessary to take 5 or 6 cm (3 cm from which the coaching profile and 2-3 cm - foam).

After determining the size of the frame, it is necessary to determine the size of the plastic window sill and metallic lowbow. When calculating, do not forget that the old wooden frame is wider than plastic.

Having a tape measure at hand, it is pre-calculating the sizes of the window itself completely simple. If you decide to change old frames, it is still better to ask for help to professionals, which can not only correctly determine the dimensions of the designs, but also to establish them according to the technical standards and requirements.
