Re: Window Frame Reinforcements


you don't need it with multi chambered uPVC. some companies boast of the :I-Beam frame construction" which adds extra strength.the only time i feel its warranted is when dealing with the extra weight of a triple pane window.other than that,it makes no sense although it's another weapon in your arsenal when selling so i would'nt mind having that feature for that reson alone.
