Site Survey for Commercial Window Protection in Tel Aviv

Why a Site Survey Comes First

Commercial windows differ in size, height, frame type and exposure, so a standard catalogue solution rarely fits every opening. A site survey lets us see the real conditions before we propose anything, which avoids rework and protects your budget planning.

During the visit we confirm the wall material, the frame profile, the glass type and any obstacles such as signage, air conditioning units or fire exits. Each opening is recorded so the final design reflects what is actually on site.

What We Check on Site

Our technician walks the building and records every opening that needs protection. The checklist usually covers:

• Exact width and height of each window, measured on site
• Type of wall and fixing points, such as concrete, block or stone
• Frame material and condition, iron, aluminum or steel
• Emergency exit requirements and escape routes
• Ventilation, shading and daylight needs

We also note access for installation so the work can be scheduled without disrupting your staff or customers.

Design, Drawing and Written Specification

After the survey we prepare a drawing that shows bar layout, spacing, fixing method and finish for each opening. The written specification lists materials, profile sizes and the protective coating, so you know exactly what will be produced.

For railings or fixtures that must meet safety requirements, we refer to the Israeli railing standard SI 1142 in general terms and confirm the exact values with the engineer responsible for the project.

Choosing Iron or Aluminum for Business Premises

Iron offers strength and a traditional look, while aluminum is lighter and resists corrosion well. The right choice depends on the building, the exposure to weather and the visual style your business needs.

Points to consider

Ask us which material suits your facade, how the bars will be finished and whether a powder coating or hot-dip galvanizing is recommended for your location. We explain the options clearly so you can decide with confidence.

Approval and Factory Production

You review the drawing and specification and approve them in writing before we start. Only then are the bars cut, welded and finished in our Tel Aviv factory, where every piece is made to the measurements taken on site.

Finishing steps such as hot-dip galvanizing or powder coating are applied after fabrication, giving a consistent result across all openings in the project.

Installation and Follow-Up

Our installers fit the bars according to the approved drawing, checking alignment, fixing security and final appearance at each opening. We coordinate timing with your building management or facilities team to keep disruption to a minimum.

After installation we walk through the work with you so any questions are answered and the project is closed properly.

Frequently asked questions

Is the site survey free of charge?

Please contact us directly to discuss the survey and the details of your request. Our team will explain what the visit includes.

How long does the survey take?

The duration depends on the number of openings and the size of the premises. We confirm the scope when you request the visit.

Can you protect windows in an occupied office building?

Yes, we plan the survey and installation around your working hours and access rules. We coordinate with your building management where needed.

What happens after the survey?

You receive a drawing and written specification for review. Production starts only after you approve them in writing.

Common mistakes to avoid

Many businesses request protection before measuring properly, which leads to bars that do not fit the openings or clash with fire exits. Skipping the site survey and written approval often causes costly changes after production has started.

Our recommendation

Gather photos of every window, note which ones face the street or the yard, and mention any emergency exit requirements before the visit. This helps our team prepare a more accurate survey and a faster approval process.

Summary

A site survey is the first step to protecting commercial windows correctly, combining on-site measurement, a clear drawing and written approval before factory production.
