It was time to replace the glass on the balcony - the repair of the entire glaler room is performed with their own hands as soon as possible. The insulated and glazed loggia has long been becoming a full-fledged extra residential building in the apartment of a high-rise building. The best balcony and loggia protection option is the installation of double-glazed windows in the aluminum frame. Before the start of glazing work, preparatory work must be carried out.
Preparatory work
Loggia premises prepare for work on the installation of fencing in glass and finishing the inner surface of the loggia.
- The room of the balcony and loggia is freed from all extra, leave clean all the inner surfaces of the closed room.
- Start the dismantling of old glazing. The frames in the glass are removed in parts. Remove old glass material. Then remove the part of the frame design.
- In the perimeter, the end surfaces are aligned with cement mortar.
The dismantling of the old frame produces, so that its parts do not fall into the street and thereby did not create the threat of life and the health of passersby.
Frame
In areas with large wind loads, an additional framing from the channel or two parallel corners is installed.
Welcome metal profile into a single frame structure at the place of glazing the room. The frame is temporarily fixed in the open anchors. Anchor is driven into the drilled holes in the frame and in the concrete or brick of the Owl.
Aluminum Rama
Rama is made in the factory. If there are difficulties on the delivery of structures due to its size, the frame is made of several sections, convenient for delivery to the place of installation.Montage frame
The frame is made from a profile of 70 mm width. If we are 6 m long, then the frame is collected from several sections. In the presence of frame, it is fixed simultaneously with an aluminum frame anchors.
Anchor should be in concrete to a depth of at least 40 mm. In brickwork, anchors are driven to a depth of at least 60 mm.
Plastic plates
Without framing, the frame is installed also with the help of anchors. Pre-aluminum construction put on mounting plastic plates. Trapezoid plates have a beveled toothed surface. The folded plates are installed with toothed surfaces to each other, which allows you to adjust the gap between the frame and the base of the remote size of the desired size.

Permissible gaps
The minimum clearance between the upper profile and the edge of the opening should be 30 mm. The frames on the frames of the frame must be at least 20 mm. The distance between the lower edge of the frame and the parapet makes at least 35 - 40 mm. All gaps are filled with mounting foam. The mounting plates are left in the suture body.The gaps of this size make it possible to carry out the walls and the ceiling, without entering the surface of the aluminum frame.
Wooden lining
Do not listen to tips on the fact that the gaps can be filling in wood material. The tree itself is hygroscopically and is subject to rotting. After several years of operation, such a support can collapse and lead to irreparable consequences, up to the loss of fencing in glass into the street.
Bridge cold
When the outer surface of the frame is arranged, the level of insulation under the lower edge of the frame will be reduced to the outer surface of the walls, which can create a "cold bridge" by which the cold will penetrate the inside of the room. Therefore, the frame is installed at one level with the inner surface of the parapet. The internal volume of the assembly foam will increase significantly that the cold penetration will prevent in winter.Dobory
On the perimeter of the frame is not allowed. Dobra are plastic stripes that weaken the joints of the junction with the frame design. In the case of a small curvature of the work of DOP, is valid as decorative linings.
Sash
Swivel frames in glass must have soft elastic seals around the perimeter. The same seals should stand directly in windowes. Quality seals serve many years. Every year they are clean and covered with silicone lubricant. Otherwise, after a year or two, the gums are dried and will come to complete disrepair. Fasteners should lay down to the frame tightly around the perimeter. On how to carry out the installation of windows according to GOST, see this video:Article on the topic: Room interior 17 sq. M
Sealing gums are recommended to change with periodicity once every 3-4 years as the material is drying and hardening.
Furnitura
A high-quality lock and swivel fittings should be installed on the rotary frames and window openings, reliably fixed with screws. After setting the flaps, the movable parts are subjected to careful tuning and adjustment. In places of placement of window flaps on the inner surface of the frame, the response parts (respondents) are fixed in the amount of 5 pieces. The defendants play the role of limiters for a closed sash.
Optimal placement of glazing and opening sediments
Sections make a width of 750 - 850 mm. For example, a fencing in a width of 6 meters is installed from 6 glazing sections. Two extreme sections make deaf. Most often at the corners of the loggia and the balcony are placed cabinets. Therefore, a sandwich panel is installed in the extreme frames instead of glass. The following neighboring sections may have open-air frames. Two central sections fill the frames with deaf glazing. On how to correct window sections in a private house, see this video:
Why do you need to do? Such an arrangement of sections ensures the availability of external glazing surfaces for washing. The glazed loggia will always have a neat and pure view from the outside.
If the width of the day allows you to arrange the sash through two sections from each other, it will provide good natural ventilation without drafts. A large number of opening sections will result in weighting and a significant rise in prices for the entire design of glazing.
