Multi-unit housing rewards standardization. This case covers a 120-unit apartment block supplied with a single windows and doors window family.
The Challenge
The contractor needed 600+ aluminum windows on a tight schedule, with consistent performance and minimal site cutting.
The Approach
- Standardize – Three window types (sliding, fixed, casement) covered all units.
- Pre-glaze – Factory double-glazed units arrived ready to fit.
- Tag & kit – Each window labeled by unit and opening to avoid mix-ups.
Why Sliding Dominated
For high-rise safety and space, sliding windows were specified on balconies; casement in bedrooms for ventilation. One supplier meant one warranty.
Outcome
| Metric | Result |
|---|---|
| Units | 120 apartments / 612 windows |
| Lead time | 5 weeks production |
| Snag rate | <2% |
Takeaways
- Fewer types = faster install and spares.
- Factory glazing improves seal quality.
- Labeling prevents on-site errors.
