Both gave you a warranty. That sounds solid \u2014 even a double warranty!<\/p>\n<p>But in reality you have zero warranty.<\/p>\n<h2>How a &#8220;double warranty&#8221; falls apart<\/h2>\n<p>Six months after installation you notice that the terrace glazing jams in the closed position. It no longer opens smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>You call the glazing company. They come out, take a look and say: &#8220;Your structure has moved. Our glass and profiles are fine \u2014 the problem is with the substrate. That is not covered by our warranty.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>You call the builder. He says: &#8220;We built the terrace the way we always do. Nobody told us the glass system requires some \u00b12 mm tolerance. That is the glazing company&#8217;s problem \u2014 they should have given us the right specifications.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Neither party takes responsibility. Each has their own logic. And you pay for the repair yourself.<\/p>\n<h2>Why this happens so often<\/h2>\n<p>There is a technical reason for this. Manufacturers of glass solutions \u2014 including Malmerk Klaasium \u2014 are not responsible for the structure onto which the glazing is installed. This is stated in every manufacturer&#8217;s terms and conditions. And it is logical \u2014 the glazing company cannot be held responsible for someone else&#8217;s building work.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, glass solutions are extremely sensitive to structural stability:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Frameless folding terrace glazing tolerates only \u00b12 mm of movement<\/li>\n<li>Framed sliding systems tolerate \u00b17 mm<\/li>\n<li>Balcony glazing requires a stable upper and lower fixing surface<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These tolerances are tight. An ordinary builder who has not previously installed glass solutions does not know these figures and does not dimension accordingly.<\/p>\n<h2>The advantage of a single contractor<\/h2>\n<p>When one company is responsible for the entire project \u2014 from structure to glazing \u2014 then:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dimensioning is correct from the outset.<\/strong> The foundation and structure are designed around the requirements of the glass solution. Not the other way round.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tolerances are controlled.<\/strong> The same team that builds knows exactly what the glass system requires. They do not need to ask anyone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The warranty covers everything.<\/strong> If something moves, there is one responsible party. No &#8220;I don&#8217;t know, ask the other company&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cost savings.<\/strong> One project management, one mobilisation, one logistics operation. Coordinating two companies is always more expensive.<\/p>\n<h2>How it works in practice<\/h2>\n<p>In our case, a single-warranty project looks like this:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>First meeting.<\/strong> We come to you, assess the situation and discuss your wishes. Free of charge.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Structural audit.<\/strong> If an existing structure is already in place, we assess its suitability for glazing.
