Glazing is contractor-speak for windows. Our project incorporates the kind of windows you would find in a commercial building like a store.
This window system is pretty neat. The pieces are made off site and the whole system just snaps together like a bunch of Legos.
-
- This is the biggest set of windows. That’s a big hole!
-
- The area where the sill (bottom) of the windows go is prepped.
-
- A metal track is placed under the sill, leveled, and attached to the concrete.
-
- Some of the sections came pre-assembled.
-
- Ever see those old movies where two workers are carrying a big sheet of glass and the Keystone Cops come barreling right through it? That’s all I could think of when they were carrying this window.
-
- The entry windows went in really quick.
-
- The windows are sealed with a really nasty caulk. The tape keeps the caulk from getting all over the wood.
-
- The frame is caulked and ready for glass to be installed.
