Suzanne from Amsterdam
They delivered great work. They worked nicely, for any extra repairs and work they checked in to see if it was okay with me first, I thought this was very nice. They worked very tidily, cleaned everything up and didn't leave any trash behind. Very nice painters!
Benefits of Sliding Windows with Double Glazing
At Heym, we recognize the importance of your property’s appearance. A significant part of this aesthetic is defined by your frames and windows. However, older sliding windows can have downsides, such as drafts, rattling or fogging glass, poor heat and sound insulation, or even rot. Replacing your sliding window with one featuring double glazing can enhance your living comfort and reduce your energy costs.
Heym is a leading company for this type of project. We custom-make most double-glazed sliding windows (HR++) in our own workshop, with the remaining components provided by our trusted and skilled partners. This approach preserves the authenticity of your property. Upgrading to sliding windows with double glazing addresses all the issues mentioned earlier. We ensure that your home is better insulated, free from drafts, and shielded from Amsterdam’s lively noise so you can enjoy a good night’s rest.
Our projects
Installation of the New Sliding Window
To maintain your property’s historical charm, we strive to preserve as much of your original sliding window elements as possible. We carefully remove the old components before installing the new, custom-made window. We then finish all gaps neatly, eliminating drafts by fitting sealing frames. Finally, we paint everything to give your property a polished appearance.
If your existing sliding window features a traditional cord system, we replace it with a new system that maintains the original look. Your new sliding window can be smoothly opened and closed using pulleys and cords, preserving both the interior and exterior’s authentic character.
Depending on the condition of the original frame, the new window will either be installed within the existing frame or a new wooden frame will be used. Since we produce the wooden frames, window sections, and moldings in our own workshop, we can guarantee the quality of our products and services.
We ensure your new double-glazed sliding window closely resembles the original. For listed buildings, it may even be possible to use heritage glass in a replica of the original sliding window. It’s important to assess in advance which modifications are permitted without a permit for your historic property.
Warranty
Alongside preserving your property’s historical and authentic character, Heym places great emphasis on quality. Clear and transparent communication is central to our approach. We take the time to understand your preferences and requirements before starting work, and if any questions arise during the project, you can always reach out to the project foreman or our office. This ensures direct contact, honest communication, and guaranteed quality at every stage.
We offer a ten-year warranty on frames and windows, covering issues such as water and wind tightness and color adhesion. Glasswork is covered by a five-year warranty, which includes condensation or dirt between double panes. Hardware and fittings come with a two-year warranty.
