    How much sunlight does the window receive?

    The amount of use of the window.

    Sometimes windows only serve to allow light into a space; sometimes windows are the entrance doors to our garden or balcony. Depending on the everyday use we want our windows to have, the professional will guide us in choosing the window that is best suited to our needs.

    Depending on the interior space, the professional will recommend one type of opening or another. For example, sliding windows are a great space-saving solution.
