This was always going to be a nail biting day because the windows were ordered from the timber frame before the frame had been delivered. The atrium top windows went in with a bit of a squeeze and it was clear that the rest of them would fit. When it came to fitting the studio windows it soon became apparent that they were too large for the opening. After considerable head scratching it became clear that some of the timbers that had been nailed into the steel frame (yes they nail straight into steel, don't ask me how) would need to be removed and then packed out after fitting. This isn't an easy task and will undoubtedly add to our costs.

Although we are very pleased with the windows the suppliers, Velfac, have given inaccurate instructions about the installation and underestimated the complexity of the installation.
