Book a Site Measurement for Steel-Look Window Installation

t439-45

A site measurement is the step where our team checks the real openings in your home before any Belgian steel-look profile window or door is manufactured. Accurate measurements prevent fitting problems, so the frames match your walls, floors and existing details. Book the visit once you have photos and a rough idea of the openings you want replaced.

Why an on-site measurement matters for steel-look windows

Steel-look profile windows have slim sightlines and a fixed visual character, so even a small error in an opening can show up as a visible gap or an awkward reveal. Walls are rarely perfectly square, and older buildings often vary from one floor to the next. Measuring the actual opening, rather than relying on plans alone, lets us build each frame to the real dimensions of your home.

The measurement also shows us where the frame will sit inside the wall, how deep the reveal is and whether the surrounding finishes will need attention.

What happens during the visit

Our technician visits your home, checks each opening in several places for width, height and diagonal, and notes the sill, lintel and side wall conditions. We also check how the window opens, which side the handle should be on, and where the frame needs to clear radiators, shutters or door swings.

How to prepare before we arrive

You do not need to clear the whole apartment, but a little preparation helps. Move furniture away from the windows and doors being measured, and make sure the technician can reach the openings safely. If there are blinds or roller shutters, let us know how they are mounted so we can account for them.

Photos of each opening taken from inside and outside are very useful and can be sent with your inquiry before the visit.

From measurement to drawing and specification

After the visit we prepare a drawing and a written specification showing the frame sizes, the profile finish, the opening type and any notes about the installation. You receive these documents for review, and nothing goes into production until you approve them. This gives you a clear picture of what will be manufactured and a chance to correct anything before it is made.

Choosing the steel-look finish and profile

Belgian steel-look profiles come in a range of finishes that imitate classic steel windows. During the measurement visit you can also talk through colour, glazing and the look you want for the building. Seeing the opening in person helps decide how dark or light the frame should be against your facade and interior.

Finishes are applied in the factory, so the choice is made before production and is recorded in the specification.

Next steps after approval

Once the drawing and specification are approved, the windows are manufactured in our Tel Aviv factory and then installed at your home. The measurement is the foundation of this whole process, so taking the time to book it properly saves revisions later. If your renovation is still in planning, the site visit can also help your contractor schedule other works around the new openings.

Frequently asked questions

Is the site measurement free of charge?

Please contact us directly to confirm the arrangement for your visit. Our team will explain the process when you book.

How long does the visit take?

The length depends on how many openings are being measured. Let us know the number of windows and doors when you book so we can plan the time.

Do I need to be home during the measurement?

It is best if someone can be present to let the technician in and point out any details, such as handle preferences or obstacles. Photos sent beforehand can also help.

Can I change my mind about the design after the measurement?

Yes, you can request changes to the drawing and specification before approval. Once approved, the windows go into production, so review the documents carefully.

Common mistakes to avoid

Booking the measurement after ordering the frames, or measuring the openings yourself with a tape, often leads to errors because walls are rarely perfectly square. Relying on old plans instead of the real opening is another common cause of mismatched frames.

Our recommendation

Book the site measurement before finalising your renovation schedule, and have the reveal, wall finish and any shutters ready for the technician to review. Checking the drawing carefully before approval is the step that prevents most installation issues.

Summary

A careful site measurement is the foundation of a well-fitting steel-look window installation. Prepare your openings, review the drawing and specification, and approve the design before production begins.
