Like a glass pack sealant put in a prank, killed the planks, the loop and the pen in a few months.

I'm often confronted with problems that arise from a seemingly harmless desire to save or make the best of it. One of the most common mistakes is to use the wrong sealant.
I, Dmitry, am a plastic window repair worker in Minsk. I have been working since 2003, I have passed through more than 9,800 windows.
What happened?
The owner of the window decided to remove the window sill and bought the first sealing device in the store. He found a sealing device for a glass pack; thicker and harder, designed to fix the glass in the handle.
The wrong profile and the hardness of the shutter caused the shutter to close with great force, creating a critical load on all the furniture elements.
What That Led to
During the months of active exploitation, the following fractures were found:
- I'm not going to. They've deformed and the answering boards are out of order.They couldn't handle the constant pressure.
- I'm not going to. The bottom loop broke.The load on her was too much.
- I'm not going to. The pen mechanism is broken.It was impossible to turn it back without much effort, and it eventually broke.
Instead of replacing the sealing machine cheaply, it took a serious repair with the replacement of several pieces of furniture, and of course, the installation of the correct sealing machine.
Why it's so important to use the right sealant
The glass sealant is a type of glass that is used to seal glass in a glass case, but not to seal the glass case.
- I'm not going to.creates excessive pressure on the furniture, causing its rapid wear and tear;
- I'm not going to.interferes with the closing mechanism;
- I'm not going to.It can deform the crease itself.
What can be done to avoid such a situation?
And I'm going to tell you right away, REHAU, VEKA, KBE — these are the frames, not the seals, they're the seals, and they're all the same one, so picking a seals for the seals is a myth from the stores.
