DO's & DON'TS
• Do make sure all your measurements are accurate.
• Handle windows with care. Don't knock the edges or rest them on concrete, instead use wood blocks or something soft.
• Do take your time at each stage to avoid costly mistakes.
• Don't over pack or over tighten screws, as this could bend the framework.
• If your window needs a wedge gasket, don't cut it too short -- an easy mistake to make.
• Don't run sealant along the outside gap between the sill and frame, as this will block the concealed drainage mechanism.
• Do push sealant forward, rather than pulling back to ensure it pushes into any gaps.
• Do countersink fixing holes to ensure bolts don't obstruct glass.
• Do stand back and admire your handiwork.
