Dear florists,

Today, I received financing approval for the purchase of a condominium unit on the 4th floor of an old building dating back to 1910 (which means the exterior walls are probably very thick), and I hope to finalize the purchase in the next few weeks. I would like to install a floor-to-ceiling window, more precisely a double balcony door with a French balcony, in one of the rooms. On the 5th floor directly above, there is already a window of this exact type, so it should be possible.

Is it feasible to carry out this work entirely from inside the apartment, without scaffolding (which would probably be very expensive)? Does anyone have an approximate cost estimate for this? Possibly also including scaffolding, in case there is no other option.

Many thanks,
Simon

Yes, that's true, but I really have to say that we paid "so little" for installation and delivery of the roller shutter box. The French balcony can be purchased pre-installed directly in the window, so nothing needs to be fixed on the outside.
Please note: the prices I mentioned were for a package deal for new construction, meaning large orders, openings already in place, and external plastering is of course included, as 11ant also mentioned above.
