Windows & Doors Installation Notes

AllGlass works with industry experts who specialise in the installation of windows & doors.

If you would like to take the next step after receiving your site unseen estimation, please let us know and we will arrange for one of our installers to visit your premises and can then provide you with a confirmed quotation.

We do not include any painting or staining after the installation of your windows & doors.

All windows and doors are finished on the Inside using either, pre primed, maple architraves & storm moulds in most cases. Powder coated angle trims are used on the outside to cover gaps if required.

When replacing Windows & Doors, sizes need to be reduced to allow them to fit back into the existing opening.
It is recommended not to order new internal blinds, venations, etc. until new windows & doors have been Installed.

IMPORTANT - existing blinds, venetions etc. will NOT fit back into new windows and doors, in most cases. If this is a problem, it is the customers responsibility to raise the issue before accepting the quotation.

All care but no responsibility is taken with existing interior and exterior walls & finishing's, as we cannot guarantee that they will not be affected during the removal of the old windows and doors. For E.g., exterior render and interior tiles can often be loose but are being held in place by the window, once the window is removed it can cause movement in the render and / or tiles.

If asbestos Is present and will be affected during the removal and Installation process, we have not made allowance for the safe removal of this material, by the experts required. We do not cut any external or internal sheeting containing asbestos. But wherever possible we do our best to work around the materials without effecting it and the safety of our workers and the residence. Please call to discuss if you have any concerns or knowledge of asbestos at your property.

IMPORTANT – Interior & exterior. It is the owner's responsibility to provide clear access on both the inside and outside, of the windows being replaced. Resetting of furniture and the like is also the owner's responsibility.

IMPORTANT - Interior. The removal of all curtains, curtain brackets, curtain tracks & blinds before the Installation of new doors & windows, is the owner's responsibility. Reinstallation of the above is also the owner's responsibility.

IMPORTANT – exterior. The removal of all awnings or roller shutters before the Installation of new doors & windows is the owner's responsibility. Reinstallation of the above is also the owner's responsibility.

All measurements are height first and width second, E.g.: 1200 mm high x 1800 mm wide.

NOTE: all diagrams are view from the outside – which is very important to know when determining the direction of slide of a window or door

What are the things that may affect the pricing of your estimation?

The type of window / door being removed – aluminium, timber, steel or PVC, as there are levels of difficulties between the types.
How the original window / door has been installed – affecting the ease in how they can be removed without upsetting the surrounds too much.
Ease of access to window / door being replaced – ground level, first floor (is scaffolding required), sloping block, steps and corners etc.
The size and or weight of window / door being replaced therefore manpower required (1 man or 5), is machinery needed such as a suckers, crawlers and / or cranes etc.
Accurate measurements – only a small portion of sizes are available within this ‘Estimation Tool’ and therefore pricing may vary up and down based on actual sizes (having all sizes available would make this tool unusable and too big and hard to navigate). I would recommend selecting large sizes rather than smaller if your sizes fall in between.
Allowance made for primed pine reveals and architraves, therefore meranti reveals and architraves will be an additional cost (for staining purposes). At times larger reveals are also required.
Window / Door configurations – there are so any options available but only the most common ones are available for use within this ‘Estimation Tool’. Other configurations are available upon request but will also alter the price.
Glass selection – there are many options to choose from (various tints, low E and obscure glass options and mixtures of all of these). Again, only the most common ones are available for use within this ‘Estimation Tool’.
Colour options – the window / door prices are based on our standard colour range. A premium range and further range of powder coat colours are available upon request.
Standard fly screens and fly doors have been included. Upgrades to mesh and also security doors and grilles are available on request.
Delivery – the allowance is for Canberra local, so depending on where you are may attract a higher delivery fee.

This ‘Estimation Tool’ has been designed to give the most accurate estimation possible with the least amount of information available.
We have many years of experience and looked at hundreds of jobs to create this “Estimation Tool’, but we do also know that each one of the above mentioned, will make a difference to a final quotation.

To firm up your estimation, get in touch with one of our sales team at AllGlass Canberra on 02 6280 9774. Pricing is subject to change once a site visit has been carried out and accurate measurements taken.
