Submit Drawings for Custom Aluminum Window Fabrication Review
t498-42

To get your aluminum window drawings reviewed for fabrication, send dimensioned elevations, sections, profile and glazing details, and the opening conditions along with any performance requirements. Our team checks buildability, material compatibility and installation details, then returns written comments before production begins.
What a fabrication review covers
A fabrication review checks whether your window design can be built accurately, finished properly and installed without surprises. Our team looks at frame sizes, sash configuration, hardware locations, glazing thickness and how the window connects to the surrounding wall.
The review is practical rather than aesthetic. We are not redesigning your project, but we will flag anything that could affect strength, weathertightness, operation or maintenance.
Drawings and information to include
Clear drawings make the review faster and more accurate. Please send the following with your submission:
- Dimensioned elevations of each window type with opening directions
- Horizontal and vertical sections through frames, sashes and sills
- Glazing specification, including thickness and any special units
- Hardware locations, locking points and screen requirements
- Rough opening sizes and wall build-up at the window
How our review process works
Once your drawings arrive, the workshop reviews dimensions, profile compatibility and the sequence of assembly. If something is unclear, we note it in writing so you can confirm the intent before we go further.
Where needed, we may ask for an on-site measurement to confirm the opening against the drawings. This step is especially useful in renovation projects, where existing walls are rarely perfectly square.
Common issues we look for
Most delays come from a small number of recurring issues. Catching them early keeps the schedule on track:
- Dimensions that do not match between elevation and section
- Glazing sizes that conflict with the chosen sash profile
- Missing drainage or thermal break details at the sill
- Hardware placed too close to frame joints
Structural and safety requirements should be confirmed with your engineer; we check fabrication feasibility against them.
Written comments and approval
After the review, you receive written comments listing any items to confirm or revise. We ask that the approved drawing be signed off before production starts, so both sides work from the same version.
Keep a single controlled set of drawings and mark each revision clearly. This avoids confusion between the design team, the client and the workshop.
From approved drawing to installation
After approval, the window is fabricated in our Tel Aviv factory, then finished as specified. Coatings and finishes are chosen with the drawings in mind, so the colour and surface shown in your documents match what is delivered.
Installation details such as anchoring, sealing and protection during construction should be agreed early and shown on the drawings, which keeps the handover smooth.
Frequently asked questions
Which file formats can I send for the review?
PDF drawings with clear dimensions are the most convenient, and original CAD files are welcome if you have them. Please make sure all scales and dimension units are clearly stated.
Do I need to send a full set of project drawings?
You only need the drawings that show the windows, including elevations, sections and relevant details. Sending the wall and floor information around the openings is also helpful.
Can the review happen before the building is finished?
Yes, the review can start during design or early construction. An on-site measurement can be arranged later to confirm the actual openings before production.
Will my drawings be shared with anyone else?
Your drawings are used only to review and produce your project. We treat them as confidential and do not share them outside the workshop.
Common mistakes to avoid
The most frequent mistake is sending drawings with conflicting dimensions or unclear opening sizes. Leaving out the wall build-up or sill detail also causes avoidable revisions later.
Our recommendation
Before submitting, check that every dimension appears on at least one drawing and matches across elevations and sections. Mark any detail you are unsure about so it can be discussed rather than guessed at during fabrication.
Summary
Send dimensioned, consistent drawings with glazing, hardware and opening details, and you will receive clear written review comments before production. A complete first submission is the fastest route to an accurate window.
