External wall opening

Connect your home to an extension, garden doors or a wider glazed opening. Structure and the building envelope must be designed together.

From preparation to completion

Supporting masonry and floors is only one part of an external opening. Waterproofing, insulation, airtightness and the junctions around the new frame also need detailing. Coordinate final frame dimensions and delivery before opening the wall, including temporary weather protection. Access outside, supporting structure and facade repairs influence the quotation. Supply and installation of a new window or door frame are included only when expressly agreed.

What we coordinate with you

  • Review the facade and desired opening
  • Coordinate steel and frame dimensions
  • Check permits and heritage restrictions
  • Plan temporary closure and permanent junctions

What affects the price?

Loads, span, support, access and finishes determine the work. A price for steel alone is not a price for the complete opening. Share your drawings and desired result so the quotation can identify included work, provisional items and exclusions.
