Heavier Lifting

This is why I recommend hiring a structural engineering (www.kloesel-engineering.com) to install 400 pound windows!

Heavy Lifting


Well, in the two months that I haven't posted, we've been busy working. The exterior foam and membrane is nearly complete, and the windows are going in. I'm using a galvanized steel jamb extensions on the outside, installed prior to the window.

Today, we installed one of the large windows, 12+ feet tall and nearly 300 pounds. Nothing a few pulleys and a winch couldn't handle.
