Hello,
we are currently in the process of selecting the wood for our windows.
An acquaintance mentioned that pine wood might not be stiff enough for wood-aluminum windows with such wide sashes and could potentially warp.
One sash weighs around 200 kg (440 lbs). He recommends using woods with a higher raw density.
Unfortunately, these tend to be somewhat more expensive. Does anyone have experience with this and can offer some advice?
The window manufacturer says pretty much the same, but of course, they also want to make a sale...
