ᐅ Plastic windows in 100x250 cm size with RC2 security rating not possible?

Hello,

I received feedback from my window manufacturer stating that my requested single-leaf, floor-to-ceiling PVC frame windows measuring 100cm (40 inches) wide and 250cm (98 inches) high with RC2 glazing are not feasible. The window sash would be too heavy due to the laminated glass pane, and the hardware would not support it.

Does anyone have a similar window with comparable dimensions? Aluminum windows are not an option because of the price increase (they would probably work).

Are there special fittings for something like this? Or other solutions?

Best regards

I don’t quite understand where you would suddenly be responsible if you were to name a company based on your experience that stood out positively in this context, but okay.

If I were in your window supplier’s position, I would be aware of my own warranty and would not install anything recommended by some random person from the internet ;-) unknown to me.
And my stone’s throw philosophy is: no experiments—materials and installers should not be separated (just like “st”).

Regarding your second point on whether it is common for homebuilders to order windows or patio doors that look similar from different manufacturers, or if this is usually avoided for aesthetic reasons, I was hoping for more feedback based on your experience.

On that, I have already shared my usual opinion here—that RAL colors are not Pantone colors (and also that nothing can be judged accurately if the questioners withhold visual information). So your disappointment is undeserved :-(
