How to keep windows like new: cleaning the profiles, lubricating the hardware and caring for the seals.
Quality joinery lasts for decades, but a few simple actions, once or twice a year, extend its life and keep it working perfectly.
Recommended routine
- Clean the profiles with a soft cloth, lukewarm water and a non-abrasive detergent (no solvents)
- Lubricate the hinges and locking mechanisms with fine-mechanism oil once a year
- Treat the seals with glycerine so they stay elastic
- Clean the drainage channels at the bottom of the frame once a year
- Remove the protective film within 3 months of installation
