Have you noticed that for sometime it is hard to close and open doors and windows why is it?
Doors and windows may fit too tightly. Sometimes they have had layers of paint added that make them just a little bit larger than they were supposed to be. Sometimes the window frames or door frames become warped out of shape, due to moisture absorbed into the wood, and then things no longer fit. And sometimes, it just means that the windows or doors just weren't installed properly. Materials, such as wood, metal, and plastics, expand when they are warm, which will make them harder to open.
What are the doors made out of?
wood, or/and metal, and paint.
Upgrading To Energy Efficient Windows And Doors?
The windows and doors in a home are one of the key areas where there can be a loss of heat in the winter and cool air in the summer. As an interruption to the solid walls of the home, there might be areas where the wall and the frames do not meet up seamlessly. Instead, small gaps may exist. Worse yet, the frames may settle over time and shift out of place creating a space where insects can come in and air can escape the home.Inefficient windows and doors can cost a home a significant amount of money in utility bills over the course of a year. They can also create an uncomfortable living environment. One solution is to look at installing better insulated doors and windows. New technology and new production methods have not only made these products more effective but they have also made them more affordable.For homes with many windows, large windows or windows where a draft can be felt coming into the home there are many options. For a large part of the country, windows that are double paned are an excellent choice. These windows have two panes with a space between them. This space is filled with a gas like argon which absorbs the heat and cold from the outside and reduces the amount that reaches the inner pane.Modern windows can also be equipped with several features to help them make the home more energy efficient. There are special coatings that can help to block ultraviolet light and reduce the amount of solar heat gain from the window. There are also models which do not use metal frames. This helps to prevent the transmission of heat from the outside during the summer.While a home may have dozens of windows, they usually have far fewer doors leading to the outside. Energy efficient doors require that they be fitted correctly into the frame so that no leaks develop. Doors made of wood, fiberglass and steel are the most effective at stopping the cold and heat from entering into a home. A sweep or draft dodger can also help.Doors that have large glass panes or decorative glass inlays use the same technology as windows. This makes them a valid choice if their appearance suits the decor of the rest of the home. Again, though, the doors must be installed correctly in the frame for any of this to make a difference.Whether replacing old windows and doors or purchasing new ones, there are many options that will more than pay for themselves in the long run.
