Window options and design
When choosing windows, many parameters are taken into account. You can buy plastic windows in Leroy Merlin: with one or more sashes; blind, tilt and turn (to the left or right), sliding or combined; select the required glass unit.
Various design ideas for window design will allow you to choose the desired option for the room. These can be different color shades, sizes and shapes of windows, as well as glass with a matte or glossy finish.
Changes in the appearance of a window do not always lead to an increase in its price.
Plastic windows "Leroy Merlin" - reviews
Sergey
Never order plastic windows from Leroy Merlin with delivery from Novosibirsk; sadly, they will deliver from Moscow faster.
Alexandra
Guys, I’m certainly shocked that management isn’t doing anything to improve the service! We ordered a window for 40 thousand, they promised us that they would call us and offer us a convenient date for delivery and installation! They actually called us and agreed on Sunday delivery and installation the next day! We waited all Sunday and delivery was only at 19.30 pm! And on Monday no one came! We called Leroy, since they are the only ones who have contact with the installers! And they said they were coming tomorrow! We refused and asked to send it on Saturday! Comrade Danila arrived, all excited and dissatisfied with life in general! He started up with half a turn - when asked why he came alone, he replied that he could leave altogether!!!! This is fine!!!! When we asked him to be silent and do his job, he began to babble and complain about life, management, and his difficult fate! I am extremely unhappy that they send such terrible workers and there is no feedback from the head of this office! We probably won’t contact Leroy again... we haven’t seen the result of the installation yet... we’re waiting for my friend to calm down and start working....
I made a window, they asked me not to make tinted glass, but it seems they didn’t hear us! The window turned out to be smaller in height than the old one! A fellow installer with a sour face carried out all the work, periodically snapping at any of our questions! I am very shocked by such rudeness...
Julia
They rescheduled the delivery 3 times unilaterally, they were rude, the installer was also rude and postponed the installation work to a time convenient for him! Complete horror! Disgusting attitude towards customers! Don't waste your nerves!!!!!!
Basil
We decided to replace the old wooden windows with plastic ones and chose this company for this. We completed and made 100% payment immediately after the conclusion of the contract. They said that they would produce them in about 2 weeks, after which the delivery service would contact us and discuss the date for delivery of the windows, and then the installers should contact us and discuss the installation date in the same way.
A week later, we were contacted by a delivery service, the name of which even the consultants in Leroy could not tell us. DISGUSTING DELIVERY SERVICE! Rudeness! DISAGREEMENT OF DELIVERY DATE! They sent an SMS about the delivery date, the next day the rude operator called and said that the delivery was being postponed to another date. We did not agree with the date chosen by them and expressed this, to which we were sent “far and for a long time.” They stopped answering the phone and began sending SMS alerts with a delivery date that was convenient for them, not the customer. This dance with tambourines around delivery went on for about 2 weeks. Delivery was delayed 4 times. HORROR! They brought the windows, the movers were great, they hauled them in and politely asked where to put the windows. We agreed on installation on a certain date at a certain time, the installers (2 men) arrived on time. They didn’t say too much (What a sign of a good worker!), they immediately changed clothes and began dismantling the old windows. We took out these old windows ourselves, but there are no complaints about this, because the contract said so. All installation work lasted about 12 hours (We replaced windows throughout the apartment and on the loggia). At the end of the work they said that it was impossible to vacuum until the next day, only to wipe the floors. They packed up and left. Now about Leroy Merlen Krasnogorsk consultants. We were served by Dmitry, Nikita and Natalya. They were fed with promises that they would contact the delivery service, but nothing really changed, because one way or another they at least “tried” to help with something. The quality of the windows is 8/10 (Because they have not yet passed the test of frosty weather). They promised to give compensation for the inconvenience, but showed a “fig”. WE DO NOT ADVISE ORDERING IF YOU DO NOT HAVE FREE NERVES AND EXTRA TIME!!!
Tatiana
I tried to order a basic interior window - without opening, but according to my dimensions. It turns out that Leroy Merlin has a “custom-made windows” option. The manager Kirill advised me well, indicated the price and I came to register. But manager Tatyana found out that in their office, where the manufacturing takes place, they don’t have any glazing beads. So I had to change it to something else. Question No. 1 for commercial sales management: is it not possible to clarify in advance about these “glazing beads”? Okay, we started processing. It was December 18th. Tatyana assured that they would produce it before the New Year, because there were still 2 weeks of normal working days. But even here it turned out not to be true. The next day they called from production and said: only January 25th. To my words about the contract and the date that stands there (January 9), they answered: you don’t want to. Do not take. This is how we do sales in the 21st century. There is no basic awareness between sellers and production... Shame on such management and I highly recommend thinking about your sad commercial future, gentlemen!
Dmitriy
I contacted the plastic window department at the Leroy Marlene store, they gave me the dimensions with a large margin, I was satisfied with the preliminary calculation, I chose the maximum configuration, the strongest glass and profile. I left a request for measurements here in Leroy Marlene at 2 Ryazansky Prospekt, placed a call for a window measurer on the loggia, the measurer Oleg came, walked around, hesitated, didn’t measure, he said the size was too big, we won’t take it. According to the measurer Leroy Marlene, the responsibility lies entirely with the measurer, and there is no communication with the manufacturer and installers, the measurer pays for all mistakes, politely warned that the company lacks qualifications in measurements and installations. From what was possible, the name of the company is RamStvor, the company does not exist for long, they make consumer goods, it is not clear what and how they collect, the location of the company is unknown, the measurer has never seen what he measured, i.e. the finished work, does not know the installers, all negotiations “ is being sorted out by the manager, the windows are not bad but counterfeit, Leroy makes up for them with low prices and they earn little, he advised me to look for another company, I was left upset and upset, the attitude towards the client even in Leroy Marlene is the same as everywhere else in Russia, the company does not fight for their reputation, what to say about small shopkeepers, the attitude of the French as satellites, third world countries. I'm very sorry gentlemen.
Oleg
I have never met worse and more disgusting liars. A master installing slopes and flashings arrived, made the flashings with an ax, stained all the windows with glue, and left, filed a claim, a representative came, looked, took a photo and left, said that they would fix it, we are waiting for the installer 2nd week, a complete mess, that’s what PREPAYMENT means, YOU HAVE RECEIVED THE MONEY AND THE GRASS DOESN’T GROW, PEOPLE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND YOUR NERVES. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE.
Helen
We don’t wish anyone the misfortune of ordering windows from Leroy Merlin! We ordered glazing for the loggia, 7 meters, a large order, very decent money. They made it in 3 weeks (well done!) and delivered it. They named the installation date, the time was from 13 to 15 - I was alarmed, because there was a large amount of work... My husband called two more times and asked to find out if the installers could handle it, they reassured him and said that everything was under control. My husband asked to take time off from work, and as a result, the installers arrived WITHOUT A STAIRWAY (nobody warned them that the walls were 3 meters high and the windows were 2 meters long!), unpacked the windows - a total waste! — scratches on the glass!, all scratched profiles, sloppy, lamination torn off... They took me back for another 2 weeks, they fixed it for another 2 weeks, there was no communication, I had to call and swear all the time. We agreed on a date, we call on that day: Are you going? - Oh, no one warned you that the delivery was postponed?... Curtain. All the deadlines have passed, there is no more patience either. They took the money.

It’s better to go to Castorama then. I am one even for myself! I installed it in the summer.
Mom needed it right now... so they bought it. But... not all of them are very good, of course. And the price tag... just seems low. This has happened 100 times already...

For this money you can order a new one of the required size and configuration.
Only window if ordered, no services.
Dekenning has a co-extruded seal. That is, a single whole with the profile. It is made from a specific polymer. It gets dull in the cold. And there is also the problem of quality corner processing.
The glazing bead is also not of a standard shape; a non-specialist may have problems with its removal and installation.
In general, for a non-specialist, the window is quite hemorrhoidal in terms of installation and maintenance.

Guano is expensive. For that kind of money, I’ll give away a 70 five-chamber unit with zygenia and a two-chamber energy-saving package.
Private owner
For me, I was in Laroy Merlin and saw these windows, they are so cute, and you can even buy them... There are different cases in our life... Sometimes, when the developer feels the urge to install a window where it shouldn’t be..... Manufacturing through a company takes time, but then we’ll come up with something... I even saw that Chinese doors, after standing for half a year, are subject to corrosion to the point that the so-called iron falls off in the corners, but in this case the savings are at least 10,000 rubles. in your pocket - today, and tomorrow will be tomorrow.....
NikolaMaster
I saw these windows, I didn’t understand how to familiarize myself with them before purchasing. Everything is in film, there are no samples. the sizes are different, from window vents to standard... the oak seal is visible from afar, the single-chamber package spoils the picture, everything looks like a construction set, play around, suffer, finally throw it away and order from a normal company.

The Belgian company for the production of plastic windows is constantly improving finished models and developing new products.
The windows of a global brand are distinguished not only by their quality and unusual design, but also by their beauty. Models are tested on modern equipment, taking into account possible operation in high-risk conditions.
Leroy Merlin offers several models.
Combined type
These windows combine all the materials used for manufacturing (plastic, wood, aluminum), and in various versions. The main purpose of these windows is the efficiency and reliability of the window opening.
Today, combined windows are available to almost everyone who wants to purchase them. They are attractive:
- sound insulation at a fairly high level;
- good noise insulation;
- durability;
- aesthetics.
However, these designs also have some disadvantages. The design of this window frame is quite complex, its repair is problematic, cumbersome and, not least important, high cost.
Our specialists will provide a comprehensive consultation on the tilt-and-turn principle of opening windows, provide information about the transom window, help you understand single-, double- and triple-hung windows and make the right choice.
They will clearly show the differences between left and right opening. They will introduce products with single glass, single-chamber, double-glazed windows, and present a new product - a reinforced five-chamber package.
Window decoration
In order to give the window a more well-groomed look and protect the room from unwanted sunlight and summer days, you can complement the window with a beautiful curtain or blinds.
The Leroy Merlin catalog contains textile options for windows of any size, and of course you can order an individual model taking into account all your wishes.
In modern window design, classic, roller or Roman blinds are used, as well as various options for blinds.
Classic curtains
The catalog contains suggestions for choosing curtains for windows made from fabrics of various qualities, colors and prices.
If you want to buy a curtain for plastic windows in Leroy Merlin, you can start from 200 rubles. The highest cost limit depends only on the final result for an individual order.
Roller blinds
This curtain model looks great when decorating a room in a modern style. The product protects the room well from the penetration of sunlight.
The range of roller blinds for windows in the Leroy Merlin catalog is presented in various colors and sizes. Additionally, fasteners and mechanisms for curtains are sold. The width of such products is from 40 cm, length - from 160 cm.
Small plastic windows - dimensions
Such structures are often needed for utility rooms - garages, storage rooms, basements, attics, attics and others. There are such openings in every private home, and some customers are faced with the fact that it is sometimes problematic to buy such small products. Which window is considered small, and which sashes are of what size?
What's the smallest?
In most companies you will be limited to a size of 50 by 50 cm, in some it varies, a maximum width of 40 cm and a height of 60 cm are allowed. The fact is that machines and equipment for the production of plastic structures can produce exactly these figures, and smaller products must be produced manually (sawing off a profile, joining parts by welding).
- Firstly, such products look somewhat artisanal,
- Secondly, enterprises carry out continuous production, and no one will do it for you manually.
What to do? You need to find a small enterprise where this product will be made for you, and keep in mind that during the peak construction season (this is summer and autumn) they won’t even make it for you there. And, of course, the price will be slightly higher than the cost of what is produced on the production line. Otherwise, you will have to limit yourself to a regular wooden window.
Blind and rotary sashes.
A blind window can be almost as small as you like, within reason. In principle, it is possible to make 20 by 20 cm. All this depends on the qualifications of the specific production worker who is engaged in assembly.
Opening swing and folding doors are another matter. Here it is simply impossible to make a product smaller than 30 by 30 cm. The set of fittings for opening and tilting simply does not fit on the entire frame; manufacturers also set a minimum size for opening mechanisms. By the way, for different brands of accessories there are different limit values, ask about this when ordering. Call several companies and find out more about this.
Roman curtains
Curtains that, depending on the material they are made of, look absolutely unique. They differ from rolled ones by the presence of horizontal folds and a weighting agent. The mechanism for regulating the lift can be thread or chain.
Roman blinds can be made from thick dark fabric, which will reliably protect the window from light, or light, delicate textiles that add romanticism to the room. Available in different sizes.
Blinds
To decorate windows, blinds are preferably used in office premises. They can be vertical or horizontal, with an electric or manual lifting mechanism.
The plates for them are made of plastic or fabric in various colors. A wide selection of window blinds is presented in the Leroy Merlin catalog.
Vertical blinds
This product model is distinguished by the vertical arrangement of the plates. Blinds look sophisticated and elegant.
It is better to use a ceiling mount to ensure easier movement of the plates. Using a mechanism, they regulate the level of light entering the room. Available in various colors and sizes.
Horizontal blinds
The classic and most popular model of the product. The lifting level is regulated by a mechanism. Most often made of plastic. Blinds are mounted inside the window using special brackets.
The color scheme and sizes are selected according to the wishes of the buyer. Horizontal blinds do not require special care and can be easily removed.
Small plastic windows
Small plastic windows are widely used for glazing utility rooms - attics, attics, basements, storage rooms, garages, etc. Small window openings are found in almost every private house. Quite often it becomes difficult to purchase ready-made plastic windows for such purposes, however, you always have the opportunity to order PVC profile windows of any parameters from our company.
Smallest window size
Most often, the minimum size limit for plastic windows is 50x50 cm. 40x60 cm options are also available. Small PVC windows can be produced in smaller sizes, however, such production refers to the production of non-standard shaped windows and is carried out using special equipment.
High quality
If you decide to buy high quality plastic windows, contact our company. We will offer the best options for glazing small window openings at the best prices. By contacting us, you can take advantage of a number of services:
Production of windows of any size and shape;
Preliminary calculation of the cost of glazing;
Dismantling and installation.
Our company employs only professional specialists who can provide qualified assistance in any matter.
Protective film
For additional protection from the penetration of sunlight, a polymer film has been created. It limits light entering the room on a hot sunny day. This material is popular not only in offices; lovers of dim light often use it in houses or apartments.
Solar control film for windows does not require special preparation of the glass surface; it is enough to wash it well to remove dirt and dust. It is important to glue the material tightly so as not to reduce its beneficial effect. The film is easy to clean.
When purchasing plastic windows and accessories for them, you need to carefully select the required product. With a fairly wide range, do not forget that if you take incorrect measurements or choose the quality of the PVC profile, you lose not only time, but also money.
If you have the slightest doubt, it is better to invite specialists who will think through the installation down to the smallest detail. This will allow you to feel a comfortable microclimate in the room, and purchasing additional accessories for window decoration will add special beauty to your home or office.
Leroy Merlin presents all possible positions for installing and decorating plastic windows.
Minimum size of a plastic window with opening
When choosing window designs for a residential or industrial premises, you need to know the minimum dimensions of plastic windows with opening. This may be required if the budget is very limited or you need to create the necessary ventilation, but the project does not involve a large window space: for example, you want the bedroom to be quite dark, the windows face south, or this is a window in the bathroom or toilet. Then it rather bears the load for ventilation.
What are small windows used for?
The minimum window size may vary depending on the purpose of the room. It may be required in different cases: for example, you want to arrange an attic floor, but you don’t want to put large windows there, since heat will escape due to excessive glazing, or you want to save money and make small windows in the living room. By the way, in cold regions of the country this is quite important, since the smaller the glass area, the less heat escapes from the room.
Fixed roof windows
Small windows may be required for basements, bathrooms, closets, storage rooms, and attics. The purpose of this design is ventilation, not lighting. Small plastic windows are very relevant for a dacha if you do not plan to live in it, and the house is used only in the summer, when there is enough street lighting, even if the minimum size of the plastic window is selected .
What is the minimum window size you can choose?
Many companies produce products in standard sizes, as this allows them to optimize costs and make the product more affordable, so the smallest plastic windows most often have a size of 50 by 50 cm, less often you can find the 60 by 40 option. These parameters are associated with the features of the equipment producing components for windows. This is the minimum profile size that the machine can cut. That is why smaller windows need to be ordered, and they are more expensive, since they have to be made manually. Such a profile is usually sawed off, after which the parts are joined using a special welding machine.
Soldering iron for manual soldering of windows
Such products have certain disadvantages. Firstly, it does not always look attractive, since even with great experience of the craftsman, the seam will look less neat than one made by machine. Secondly, many enterprises do not agree to produce such windows, since it takes a lot of time and is not financially profitable for the enterprise, since production is conveyor belt and there is simply no time to produce one exclusive, and also inexpensive, part.
Where can I order a small window?
The minimum size of a plastic window with opening is, in principle, technically unlimited. You can make a window at least 30 by 30, or even smaller, depending on how thick the profile itself will be. If the design is supposed to have glass, you need to add up the dimensions of the glass you want and the width of the profile, and you will get the minimum allowable size.
A small semi-basement window for ventilation
Do not forget that some space is also occupied by fittings, so the window physically cannot be smaller than the space that the opening mechanism will occupy.
Most often, the smallest plastic windows have a size of 20 by 20; they can only be produced by a qualified craftsman who has sufficient experience with small PVC parts. In large factories, such work is usually not undertaken because it would require distraction from the main production line. You can try to negotiate with a small window company whose production volumes are far from industrial. Most likely they will take on the work there, but again, not every manufacturer is ready to give a quality guarantee. When choosing a manufacturer, you should first of all pay attention to the quality of its main products. After all, the profile will be used exactly the same; from a large piece, they simply cut off what is needed to create your design.
Garage windows
Small plastic windows will cost more than any standard design, despite the fact that they require less material; the point here is not the cost of raw materials, but the cost of effort and time. However, this makes sense if the individual project requires this approach, and installing a larger window would require partially tearing down the wall. This process is expensive, time consuming and leaves behind a lot of waste.
What sizes can pivot and fixed windows have?
The minimum size of a plastic window sash depends on its functionality. If the window is blind, it can be, for example, 20 by 20, but a tilt-and-turn design requires a slightly different approach. This is due to certain dimensions of the mechanisms, which, even with a strong desire, cannot be reduced in any way, because windows of any design are equipped with standard fittings.
Bathroom with small opening windows
The minimum size of a plastic window with opening is 30 by 30; If you use a smaller frame, the fittings will not fit on it and the window will not be able to open. However, it is worth noting that the size also depends on the brand of fittings. Not every manufacturer produces products that fit such a miniature window. The minimum possible option is given when selecting fittings that can fit on a frame of the minimum size.
How to calculate correctly?
The manufacturer can help you correctly calculate the minimum size of a PVC window. He will not only take into account all technological aspects, but will also calculate what fittings may be suitable and what length of profile will be required for this. It is worth noting that the size of the glass unit can also be any. They will be made to order for both the largest and smallest windows. With glass the situation is much simpler, because its parameters are limited only by the thickness of the profile.
Fixed round window
How it will behave during installation and during operation depends on how correctly the dimensions of the future structure are calculated. The size of the window is tied to the size of the window opening in which the structure is planned to be installed; you should remember that you will need to leave a few millimeters for the installation seams, otherwise it will be impossible to install the window correctly. Installation of small plastic windows occurs in exactly the same way as standard ones. The only difference is that only one person can handle it, since the size of the frame is small and, accordingly, its weight is significantly lower, so the structure can be easily lifted and moved independently.
A fixed window is easier to make and will cost less, but if you need a structure not only for lighting, but also for ventilation, it is better to use the option with a folding sash. This is especially useful in damp rooms such as a basement or bathroom.
It is quite possible to install small plastic windows, and the size can be from 20 to 20 for a fixed window and 30 to 30 for a window with a casement. Small windows cannot be called economical in financial terms, since their production is more expensive than using standard structures. This is due to complexity and an individual approach. The window shape can be any; it is not necessary to order a square or rectangular one: it is quite possible to make a window of a non-standard shape, for example, round.
