Quality control of installation at the site.

Wooden houses (timber, beam) have become extremely popular in the last 2-3 years. Modern technologies have eliminated the disadvantages of wood – danger of fire and rotting. Thanks to special processing and impregnation the main quality of pine houses is stressed – their favourable and healthy microclimate.

Wooden windows, wooden framing, glass panes with gold decorations, siding wall panelling. This is one of the variants of elegant cottage facade.

It’s not rhetoric – in the country house we all look for an escape from the city pressure; the pressure of dust, smog and traffic jams; the pressure of the office stuffy air. Wooden house is a natural continuation of surroundings; pine walls are not barrier, but warm filter between a man and nature. Because of the difference of outside and inside atmosphere pressure, the air slowly infiltrates through wooden structure, acquires optimum humidity and satiates with tar filters. In a wooden house you have fresh air and sleep well. Now we know that this all has great value – the life speed is increasing every day – so we build houses for ourselves, not for show.
But, of course, we are prejudiced. Wooden windows and wooden houses have so much in common. Wooden windows, installed even in a common city apartment, make the microclimate better, create hermetic effect without insulation.

Features of glazing of wooden houses:

1) Wooden houses experience shrinkage. If you install windows in a newly built house, the shrinkening wood blocking will just break them. Of course you may wait several years or install temporary windows – but there’s another way out. Wooden blocks between the wall and the window are installed. The block “swims” with the wall and keeps the window in its place. If this block is made of the same color with the window one more problem can be solved -

Let’s examine one wooden house with wooden windows.
 
Wooden Windows
 
Small forms of white color – grating of the porch, lining of the roof, drainage – wonderfully go with white windows (framework – external mullions). The absolute simplicity of the facade with thought over white laconicism attracts your look.

Simpler variant – “blocks” made of square board.

2) Window casing and slopes. Economy in this aspect will lead to the following: delicate joints of the window and the wall will be closed by battens and boards. The tender music of wooden house will be spoiled. In a brick house outside joints of windows and walls are plastered, inside slopes are either plastered or covered with plastic – but in a wooden house only wood is appropriate. Do you remember patterned casings on Russian huts? It wasn’t just a decoration, it also was a practical necessity.

3) Wooden windows have one interesting feature: they “want” transom. Beam walls give so much comfort, that you want to stress it even more. Transom makes the walls more home-like and the house unique, gives it its own character.

You cannot, but notice “partial” transom: the owner showed much taste in filling large window space.

Different house brings different solution.
The windows are not as big, so a usual
variant of transom is made. The color
of the windows fits the tile.
Inside: “golden teak” color goes
with Inside texture maintanance.

Transom may be of different types: outer mullions, fit-in mullion, the division of the window into casements and upper ventlight and so on. Outer mullion is the most beautiful: it’s elegant, dainty and gives space to your imagination when choosing the windows.

Though the outer mullion is not cheap, it’s not worth economizing on it. Look at the photographs, try to imagine the house without transom and you’ll see the change immediately: the house becomes dull, featureless. By the way, the technology of reliable fixation of outer mullions to the glass was worked out and patented by “D.O.M. Windows” Company.

One more solution of window form and transom design for another wooden house. Only an outer casing is missing. Protective film A2 on outer glass pane
did not let a criminal inside. Film A1
on inner glass pane prevented the getting
of broken glass into the room.

If your house is made of beam, the wooden windows should be installed with the help of anchor plate, but not long solid bolts.

Why so?

When a beam house is built it gives shrinkage in the first few years and the wooden windows installed with plates will “swim” together with the wall. The danger of wedging and warping is prevented. Slopes and casings are made on the spot and always individually designed. Our specialists will consider all the details that can afterwards spoil all your happiness of having a new house.

chosen transom. Take a notion that transom
(outer mullions) closes part of the window,
