Comparison of profiles for Rehau and Veka windows


Here “58” in the name means the thickness of the frame profile or, as they also say, the width of the mounting seam in millimeters.

Here is a stable system of windows and doors, proven over the years and the northern St. Petersburg climate, with excellent insulating characteristics. Also, Veka 58 can also be found under the name Veka Euroline.

  • Closed metal reinforcement inside the profile ensures high stability of structures. Reinforcement material: galvanized steel with a thickness of at least 1.5 mm (VEKA standard)
  • It has good sound insulation and will create peace and tranquility in your home.
  • The highest quality plastic, produced according to Veka’s proprietary recipe, will be resistant to environmental influences. This plastic does not require painting or any special
    care. Does not turn yellow.
  • The even, smooth surface of the window with a silky shine will retain the effect of newness for many years and will not be covered with thousands of small scratches, unlike other, more glossy systems existing on the market.

Features of the Veka 58 system (Euroline)

  1. Price-quality ratio
  2. The thickness of the outer wall of the profile is 3 mm, which corresponds to class A of the European RAL system according to DIN EN 12608

Characteristics of the Euroline Veka profile

Euroline is a three-chamber profile with reliable locking reinforcement made of galvanized steel around the perimeter, which gives the structure rigidity and prevents distortions. Features and Benefits:

High energy efficiency class. According to the European classification, windows are divided into 3 categories: A, B and C. Class A is characterized by an increased ability to retain heat in the room. The corresponding certificate is issued subject to a number of conditions, one of which is an outer wall thickness of at least 2.8 mm.

Such windows better withstand cold, prevent heat transfer and block noise loads up to 36 dB. Single-chamber and double-chamber double-glazed windows can be installed in the frame. In the second case, energy efficiency is enhanced.

Durability. Century Euroline plastic windows last about 50 years. Thanks to reinforcement and thick walls, they can withstand wind loads, frequent rain, snow and frost. During operation over several decades, the outer wall thins by almost a millimeter, so systems that are inferior in parameters and technical characteristics to Veka Euroline 58 last less.

Burglary resistance. The complex geometry of the reinforcement in the frame and mullions increases the difficulty of breaking. When using impact-resistant and armored double-glazed windows, windows can be installed in rooms where material assets are stored. The use of films imparts such properties as shatterproofness and fire resistance.

Design. The frame is made in a classic style with slightly rounded corners, which makes it look great in all interiors. The standard profile color is white, but the manufacturer provides the possibility of lamination in any color using textured or smooth film.

Color. If there are strict requirements for preserving the appearance of the facade of the house, the outside profile is made white, and the inside is laminated to the desired color. White plastic does not turn yellow over time and does not lose its decorative properties. You can choose a rubber or silicone seal to match the color of the film. Manufacturers of window structures offer fittings of varying styles, colors and functionality.

Based on the description and technical characteristics, it can be understood that Veka Euroline 58 is an excellent option in terms of price and quality. It is chosen by a large number of consumers.

Customer Reviews

Evgeniy, 45 years old, Moscow We purchased these plastic windows in the fall. We decided to go with them on the recommendation of friends who had recently replaced the windows in their house. In addition, we read many positive reviews on construction forums. The window company also responded positively to the profile we chose. We survived the winter - no complaints. Quality products.

Anatoly, 36 years old, Penza We were replacing the windows in the apartment; the choice fell on the Veka Euroline profile. After a year of use, we have never regretted it. Silence, coziness, comfortable microclimate. Friends warned that not only good installation is needed, but also a high-quality profile. Therefore, we were looking for a manufacturer that had proven itself to be the best in the Russian climate. A year has passed since these windows were installed for us, and the impressions are only positive.

Lina, 49 years old, Ulan-Ude The windows in the apartment were installed 19 years ago from a factory in Novosibirsk. Not a single comment on the profile - everything is the same white, without yellowness. When the sash is closed, there is no noise from the street. Condensation occurs in winter, at temperatures below -30°C. When choosing a company, pay attention to how long it has been on the market, the qualifications of its personnel, and the availability of samples. When they built the house, they also bought VEKA, only produced by the Irkutsk plant. We didn’t even think about other options, only CENTURIES.

Elena, 28 years old, Perm I ordered windows. Managers vied with each other to praise Vek's profile, but I was not delighted. After 1 year of operation, the rubber seal on the sash fell off.

Marina, 32 years old, Kazan Installed energy-saving Veka. They sweat a lot! Everything inside is frozen! I don't know how this is possible. I am disappointed. Even though it’s winter now, there shouldn’t be any ice inside!

We must not forget that window production and profile production are different things. Even the most reliable, expensive profile system can be ruined by unqualified assembly, cheap fittings, or careless installation. For the longest service life of Veka Euroline glazing windows, it is better to order from companies that have factory production facilities and a staff of experienced, conscientious installers.

Functionality

From the listed numbers there are quite clear components of the functionality of plastic windows:

  • high level of protection from noise and cold;
  • versatility, the ability to be equipped with any additional fittings and double-glazed windows, use for different types of window structures, including sliding ones;
  • resistance to strong wind and vibration loads;
  • mechanical strength of the glass unit and frame - you can hit them with a hammer for a long time before possible damage occurs.

VEKA Euroline windows with an installation depth of 58 cm are often purchased for glazing premises for temporary stays - for example, dachas, municipal buildings.

Cost in Moscow and Moscow region

The price of the finished structure depends not only on the size of the window opening, but also on the geometry, color, fittings and functionality. Thus, color lamination increases the cost of Veka Euroline windows by 20%. The price increase is affected by the number of opening doors. Round, arched, triangular and other non-standard designs are calculated individually, for example:

  1. On average, the price of a double-leaf structure (with one blind leaf) measuring 140*120 cm, equipped with double-glazed windows and ROTO fittings, starts at 8,000 rubles.
  2. The cost of a three-leaf window 140*170 cm with a middle opening sash starts from 11,000 rubles.
  3. For a balcony block of 200*150 cm you need to pay at least 12,000 rubles.


Prices do not include installation and additional costs (slopes, window sill).
When choosing the Veka Euroline system, use the services of companies with good reviews that have been selling and repairing windows for a long time and guarantee high quality assembly and installation. You can read about other Veka profiles in our separate articles, for example: Softline, Veka Slide, WHS 60, WHS 72.

Comparison of prices for profile systems

Prices for economy class profiles from Rehau are 10-15% lower than for basic models from Veka; the cost of standard class products from both companies remains approximately at the same level. Therefore, Rehau is slightly in the lead in this battle. If we compare the cost of the products of these two companies with many other window manufacturers, we can note that they are slightly higher than the average price range established on the market. Why? Quality plays a decisive role in this matter. It is better to pay for a reliable, proven product that is guaranteed to last for half a century than to replace windows in the same room every decade.
