Windows and doors with layout from
By contacting our company, the client can order window and door products based on both plastic (Rehau, KBE, Novotex) and wooden (pine, oak, larch) profile systems with decorative elements of any colors, types and shapes.
At the request of the customer, instead of conventional double-glazed windows, functional ones can be used:
- energy-saving - retain heat in the room, preventing its dissipation into the external space through the translucent part of the window;
- multifunctional - thanks to silver-containing coating, they can not only retain heat in the house in winter, but also prevent overheating of the room in summer, since they reflect heat waves into an environment with a higher temperature. An excellent option for glazing the sunny side of buildings;
- thermal packages - have all the advantages of multifunctional ones, but are much “warmer” and “quieter” than them. This is due to the fact that in the chambers between the glasses there is an inert gas (argon, krypton), and not dried air, as in other double-glazed windows;
- noise-absorbing - have a special design that muffles external sounds. Excellent for houses whose windows face sources of constant noise (busy highways, noisy avenues, factories operating around the clock, etc.).
How to install a decorative layout with your own hands
It is possible to use the described option even if plastic windows are already installed. To install the layout of the layout yourself, it is best to choose plastic strips. It is necessary to take into account the fact that before installation on glass, an accurate sketch is made. The more complex the future window ornament, the higher the requirements for marking. It is important to take into account all future joints, weaves and similar points. There is a clear order of work sequence and it is necessary to pay special attention to each stage:
- a sketch is applied to the glass;
- measure and cut the decorative profile according to the measurements; the material should be cut with special care;
- to check, the cut sections are applied to the window without removing the protective film;
- When gluing the false binding to the glass, you need to apply very light pressure so as not to damage the integrity of the fragile surface.
Let's take a closer look at each of the stages.

Measuring the decorative profile
The decorative profile is measured using measurements that are taken very carefully. The main condition is not to rush. The profile is measured in accordance with the sketch, in order not to damage the material, it should be cut with a knife with a sharp blade. The cutting area should not only be smooth, but also free of roughness. It is advisable to carry out this procedure with an assistant who can hold the product and help measure the correct fragment. It is necessary to ensure that there are no kinks or distortions when taking measurements. To work you will need a tape measure and a marker. The cutting line must be drawn from the back side. If you don’t have a cutter at hand or the profile is too thick, it is recommended to use a hacksaw with the finest teeth possible.
Decorative profile fastener
After the necessary measurements have been taken, the sprockets are applied, covered with adhesive tape. Use rulers, a level, and do not rush when taking control measurements. When everything is finally checked, the protective paper is removed from the overlay and the workpiece is glued to the model. It must be pressed firmly for 10-15 seconds so that the glue adheres to the glass. The entire pattern is assembled in this order; special plugs should be used at the adhesion points.
The external elements of the false binding require care, as dust accumulates on their surface. After precipitation, dirty stains will remain due to this. The sprockets need to be wiped periodically, but this must be done carefully so as not to peel off the element.

Treatment with silicone sealant
When installing false bindings, all cracks must be treated with silicone sealant. This will allow the material to adhere well. The sealant should be used slowly, in small portions, so that there is no excess on the glass or decorative layout. The cost of 1 tube is 1.5-2 dollars. To work, you will need a caulking gun and dry rags to remove excess before it dries.
The silicone manufacturing company is not particularly important. But it is better to use Moment or Ceresit products.
As you can see, there is a wide variety of linings to choose from. You need to understand that decorative layout is very beautiful and attractive, but is only applicable for large panoramic windows. It is necessary to imagine the final appearance of the structure.

2. External layout in windows - false binding
False sash can be installed on ready-made window structures, which is very convenient for those who want to bring originality to the interior of their home, but do not intend to change the windows themselves. It is located mainly on the outside, but can be installed on the inside or on both sides. Fastening is done using special glue. The binding material is wood or plastic, laminated in a variety of colors to match the rest of the structure. Standard widths are 25 mm, 27 mm, as well as 36 mm and even 45 mm. Suitable for window products of any type and size, it can often be used as an alternative to a more massive mullion to divide a large structure into parts. In addition to aesthetic appeal, it increases the reliability and durability of the product. It can be made in the form of various geometric shapes - arches, squares, straight lines, as well as ornaments.
Venetian sprats
If you stick thin, light slats onto a double-glazed window using double-sided tape or silicone, you will get a type of overhead shrouds with the beautiful name Venetian. They protrude above the glass, having a round or pyramidal shape, and can be easily removed if necessary.
Venetian layouts are made of wood, metal or plastic, their finish and color are in harmony with the main profile, sometimes the same. Typically, a frame cut out of plastic is simply glued to the glass outside or inside the window.
Such grommets do not change the thermal conductivity of windows, but they interfere with the free flow of rainwater and collect dirt and dust at the joints with the glass. In order to thoroughly clean the windows, it is better to remove such layouts, but with repeated peeling off, decorative patterns and frames may not stick well to their original place.

The final stage
The finished layout, provided that all required installation technologies are followed, will look very attractive on the window. Of course, the glue on the back of the planks, although usually very high quality, takes some time to dry. The specific curing time for such compositions is usually indicated by the manufacturer in the instructions for the false binding.
While the glue dries, the double-glazed windows, of course, should not be opened or closed. A window with a layout in the interior of a private house looks very attractive, but, of course, only if the slats fit very tightly to the surface. If the glass unit is disturbed ahead of time, these elements may simply move away. Gluing the planks a second time is usually not a very effective procedure.
Duplex windows
The duplex system is installed at the window production stage. It acts as an imitation of aluminum spacer frames, resulting in the impression that the double-glazed window is additionally divided into several small double-glazed windows. A false overlay is applied to the outer part of the glass to give the image realism and completeness. This type of decoration is especially in demand during the restoration of ancient buildings, in which old windows are replaced with more modern ones, as well as among those who decided to build themselves a real, but modern castle. It is used in both wooden and plastic window structures with double-glazed windows as filling.
Structural window frames and their advantages
Structural bindings are often called decorative, but this is not entirely true.
Decorative frames only visually imitate the division of glazing from the outside or inside. Structural bindings are functional (basic). It is they who actually divide fixed, active and false casement windows into sectors, the filling of which requires separate glass or double-glazed windows. Such structural elements have a number of advantages:
- allow you to evenly distribute the load exerted by double-glazed windows or glass on the structures of frames and sashes;
- provide aesthetic appeal and individuality of windows;
- give additional rigidity to structures in openings with a large area.
The disadvantages of basic and decorative bindings include the factor of increasing the cost of the product, as well as difficult care of the glass divided into sectors. Additional elements make it difficult to quickly clean the windows - this should always be taken into account when ordering such models.
