In Malaysia, many residential buildings have been using doors and windows for over ten years. As time goes by, the performance of doors and windows gradually declines, and many homeowners are hesitant when renovating their homes: should doors and windows be replaced? In fact, replacing doors and windows is often one of the most worthwhile projects in renovating old houses.
1、 What situations indicate that doors and windows should be replaced?
If the following problems occur in the residence, it indicates that the doors and windows may no longer meet the usage needs:
Frequent water leakage during the rainy season
Difficulty or deformation in opening and closing doors and windows
The sound insulation and thermal insulation effects have significantly decreased
Hardware aging poses safety hazards
These issues are very common in old row houses and early apartments.
2、 Is it sufficient to only repair old doors and windows?
Some problems can be solved through simple repairs, but in Malaysia’s high humidity and rainy environment, old doors and windows often suffer from structural aging. Even if it is fixed in the short term, it is easy for problems to recur.
Compared to repeated repairs, directly replacing with new Malaysian aluminum alloy doors and windows is more worry free in the long run.
3、 The advantages of replacing doors and windows in old houses
Replacing doors and windows during the renovation process can bring multiple improvements:
Improve waterproof and thermal insulation performance
Improve indoor quietness
Improve overall security
Update the exterior style of residential buildings
In KL and Johor areas, many old houses have been rejuvenated by replacing doors and windows.
4、 Local door and window replacement process
Professional Malaysian door and window replacement services typically include:
On site measurement and evaluation
Dismantle old doors and windows and ensure proper protection
Install new doors and windows and complete sealing treatment
Inspection and acceptance after installation
The entire process is standardized and orderly, and will not have a significant impact on daily life.
