How to properly prepare Aubi windows for winter with your own hands


has been working in the market of light-transparent structures since 2008. The production is focused exclusively on quality, therefore, in the production of plastic windows, only first-class German PVC profiles from REHAU and KBE are used. The main activity of Plastikus is the supply and installation of plastic windows and doors using high-quality German PVC profiles REHAU and KBE and first-class German fittings from SIEGENIA-AUBI TITAN AF. The fittings for plastic windows by SIEGENIA-AUBI are manufactured exclusively in Germany on fully automated lines eliminating the human factor. Alternatively, we can install ELEMENTIS fittings.

We also supply aluminum sliding systems for glazing balconies and loggias from the PROVEDAL profile.

So how do you properly prepare your Aubi windows for winter yourself?

First, think about what worried you last winter? What about the Aubi windows now? Do they open well? And in heavy rain, were there puddles on the windowsill? How does a window handle turn? With or without effort? As expected, the handle goes down to the end? Or not? As they say: cleanliness is a guarantee of health! In our case, regular removal of accumulated dirt and lubrication, plus the timely adjustment (adjustment) of the Aubi windows (aubi) - significantly increase the service life of the Aubi window mechanisms (aubi). The question arises: how to properly wash the Aubi window so that it does not get damaged? You can safely wash the Aubi window (aubi) with ordinary soapy water and a soft sponge. We soap the glass (double-glazed window), the Aubi window profile (aubi), the slopes, the window sill, and then wipe it dry with a soft cloth. Check the drainage channels (they are at the bottom of the window frame), maybe they need to be cleaned? It is also important to know how to adjust the Aubi windows, but more on that below.

Checking the tightness of the Aubi window (how to check where the Aubi window is blowing from?)

If in summer the problem of blowing through the Aubi (aubi) windows does not bother us much, then in winter we do not want to freeze at home. So, there are three ways how you can detect the blowing of the Aubi window (aubi). Checking the Aubi windows for blowing, looking for where the Aubi window is blowing from.

The first way to check the tightness of the Aubi window (aubi): using a sheet of paper, half A4 is enough. We open the sash and put half of the sheet on the street, close the sash, lower the handle down to the end. Important! The sheet of paper should not fall on the locks that are installed on the window frame, otherwise it will simply be bitten and the experiment will be performed incorrectly. Pull out the sheet. Three options: the sheet flies out with a whistle, the sheet comes out with difficulty, it feels like the sheet is about to break. Important! Thus, the entire perimeter of the sash is checked. If in most places of such a check the sheet comes out freely (flies out with a whistle), the seal needs to be replaced. If in most places of inspection the sheet comes out with difficulty, the problem of the tightness of the Aubi window (aubi) is solved by adjusting and lubricating the Aubi window (aubi). If in most places of the check the sheet is about to break, you do not need to do anything with the Aubi window. You will not blow Aubi out of this window!

The second way to check the tightness of the Aubi window (aubi): with soapy water. Remember how we looked for a hole in a bicycle camera?))) We make a soapy solution. Smear around the perimeter of the Aubi window. Where bubbles appear, it blows.

The third way to check the tightness of the Aubi window (aubi): with a candle flame.Pass the burning candle carefully around the perimeter of the Aubi window. Where the flame will vibrate, that's where it blows from the Aubi window.

The SIEGENIA balcony door does not close. What to do?

The SIEGENIA balcony door adjuster checks the positioning of the “answer”. The pressure pin should go into the lock striker and tightly press the balcony door leaf against the box. It often happens that the strikers are not set correctly or are absent altogether. In such cases, the master rearranges the “responses” or adds them for a tighter hold. Here we see that the pin and the strike plate of the lock are set at completely different levels. There is a distance in height between them in centimeters 8. What kind of clamping of the SIEGENIA balcony door (sigenia) can we talk about? And people lived like that, and did not assume that half of the locks on the SIEGENIA balcony door (sigenia) did not work for them !!!

Cleaning from dirt and lubrication of the Aubi window fittings (aubi)

Start insulating Aubi windows for the winter by inspecting the window fittings. Remove dirt, especially from the top of the sash. All folds must be free of deposits and dirt, especially cement and plaster residues. Direct exposure of the fittings to moisture and contact with cleaning agents should be avoided. Then lubricate the window hardware with Aubi. The lubrication points of the Aubi window are marked with a special marking. How to lubricate a plastic window Aubi? The most common is WD-40, machine oil, grease. Never grease with sunflower oil or olive oil, or anything else! Edible oils dry quickly, turning into a sticky substance that will break the window mechanism. After that, rotate the fittings in different modes several times to distribute the grease. Wipe off excess oil from the Aubi window.

Ways of adjusting the pressure of the Aubi window sash (aubi) to the frame

There are many manufacturers of window fittings and each of them has its own way of adjusting the sash pressure, but there are some general principles on how to tighten Aubi windows. Open the sash. Find the eccentric pins at the end of the sash. Most often they can be adjusted with a hex key or sprocket. Usually, there is a risk on the trunnion - a small strip. By default, it is put up - the neutral position. By twisting the pins to the left or to the right, you can strengthen or weaken the clamping of the window sash to the frame, i.e. change the winter-summer regime on your own.

SIEGENIA door lower hinge adjustment (sigienia)



The adjustment of the bottom hinge of the SIEGENIA balcony door (sigeniya) can be done in two dimensions:

• horizontal (by pressing the SIEGENIA door (sigeniya) to the hinge or pushing it aside)

• vertical (lifting the SIEGENIA door (sigeniya) up or lowering down)

For horizontal adjustment, the master opens the SIEGENIA balcony door (sigenia), then changes the position of the door relative to the hinge with a hexagon (less often with some other key).



The movement of the hinge relative to the door depends on the side of rotation of the key: it approaches, if rotated clockwise, and moves away, if rotated counterclockwise. After each action, a SIEGENIA balcony door repairman tries to open and close the door.

Then the vertical adjustment of the bottom hinge of the SIEGENIA balcony door (sigenia) is done.

Adjustment of the Aubi window sash vertically and horizontally

A window sash shift or slight bevel can be removed by horizontal adjustment. Adjustment of the position of the window sash is done using the upper and lower fixing hinges. This can usually be done with an Allen key. The adjusting screw in the lower hinge will allow the sash to be adjusted from the outside and from the inside. If you turn the key to the right, then the sash of the Aubi window (aubi) rises. If you twist to the left, then the corner of the sash is lowered. Also, the upper hinge is adjusted when the sash is open. You need to move the window sash back and forth by no more than 2 mm. If the plastic window does not close tightly from the bottom, then you need to adjust the lower hinge.If you need to press or move the window sash to (from) the lower hinge, then adjust the position of the sash when the Aubi window is open. On the lower hinge there is a second adjusting screw in order to lower and raise the sash vertically. If you turn it clockwise, the sash will rise. If counterclockwise, it will go down.

What is the adjustment (setting) of SIEGENIA balcony doors (sigenia)

The design of the SIEGENIA balcony door (sigenia) is the same as that of the window (in fact, the door is a sash, only a large one), but the dimensions and weight are much larger. This means that the load on the hinges is much higher. Due to these design features, it is recommended to adjust the SIEGENIA door (sigenia) regularly every six months, even if there are no complaints about its functioning yet.

To adjust the SIEGENIA plastic door (sigienia), remove the decorative plugs from the hinges, tighten the adjusting screws with a hexagon wrench, and the sash is given the correct position. Nothing complicated at first glance, but in reality, such work requires a lot of experience, thoroughness and even some jewelry in its implementation. Sometimes one adjustment is not enough, then the master has to rearrange or additionally install the lock strikers. The price of adjusting the SIEGENIA balcony door is quite affordable. It is better to adjust the SIEGENIA balcony door in time than not to repair it later.
