Aluminum windows 30% cheaper and fast delivery – Case Study Rik Van Dueren
Who have we helped with importing windows from Poland?
Rik is a developer and runs a company that mainly builds new homes. It also undertakes reconstruction and renovation projects. Usually, Rik needs to buy a set of joinery for the investment. He was looking for a supplier who has all the necessary products in one place. Half a year ago he found the offer of debesto.com. He had never bought joinery in Poland before. Today we are in constant contact and we implement various projects together.
The challenge
The owner of the company wanted to carry out a project of rebuilding part of his own house. The company wants to find a reliable supplier who will in the future provide door and window joinery for investments in the Netherlands. As it was the first project implemented with a Polish company, the owner wanted to find out what debesto.com offers and what the order fulfillment process really looks like. He wanted the highest quality products in line with the design assumptions.
Solution found
Market research
The investor provided sample photos and drawings of the structure. It turned out that the project concerns the terrace development. As noted by senior sales manager Paweł Puchała, the drawings were not complete because there were no proper dimensions to make a valuation. The client received the debesto.com guide on how to properly check dimensions.
An important piece of information was that the construction of the development is already in the final preparation phase. Therefore, it is necessary to select producers who have the shortest lead times so that we can deliver all products to the customer as soon as possible. The investor also wanted to choose two pairs of external doors with a minimalistic appearance for aluminum structures.

Presentation of the optimal variant
Due to the nature of the investment, Paweł advised the choice of Aluprof MB-86 folding doors. It was important that the structure opened in opposite directions. Thanks to this, the investor obtained a large open space. To get more space under the roof, the structure was folding outwards. Our consultant suggested the use of a 2-pane packet because the investor needed a basic level of thermal insulation. As a result, the price of the product was significantly reduced.
After checking the dimensions again, changes were made to the structure in order to obtain the assembly in accordance with the design assumptions. The use of angular connectors and widening was used to fill the free space and obtain a uniform and aesthetic appearance. Inter-pane muntins have been added to the glazing units so that the glazing matches those that were previously installed in the main building. The final stage of preparing the offer was to select the appropriate model and configure the exterior doors so that their color and appearance would correspond to the sliding systems.
