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.
