Choosing the Best Doors and Windows: Dos and Don’ts

Selecting the right doors and windows is a major decision for every homeowner and builder in Bhopal. The choices you make impact your home’s energy efficiency, security, comfort, and long-term durability—especially in the face of Bhopal’s unique weather and local construction norms. At AMR BuildTech, we help families and businesses across Bhopal, Mandideep, and Raisen choose doors and windows that blend style with safety and sustainable performance.

Dos: The Best Practices for Doors and Windows in Bhopal Homes

• Use UPVC or Powder-Coated Aluminum Frames: These modern materials resist rust, aren’t affected by Bhopal’s humid summers, and require very little maintenance. They’re also insect- and weather-resistant compared to traditional wooden frames.
• Opt for Double-Glazed Windows: Double glazing reduces heat transfer, keeps interiors cooler during Bhopal’s peak summer, and blocks street noise in busy localities like Hoshangabad Road or Kolar. It saves on energy bills too!
• Install Mosquito Mesh and Ventilators: Keep out insects—crucial during monsoon—while guaranteeing continuous fresh air for family health. Customize mesh types and window grills for balconies, kitchens, and bedrooms.
• Choose Secure Lock Systems: Go for multi-point locking mechanisms and sturdy security features, especially for main doors, ground floor windows, or easily accessible terraces in multi-story homes.
• Ensure Proper Weatherproofing: Use silicone seals and gaskets to prevent dust, rainwater, and wind from entering the home—critical during Bhopal’s rainy season and dust storms.

Don’ts: Common Mistakes with Doors and Windows in Bhopal Construction

• Don’t Use Untreated or Low-Quality Wood on Exposed Facades: Untreated wood swells and deteriorates fast under Bhopal’s sun and rain, leading to gaps and early failure.
• Don’t Omit Sunshades or Awnings for West/South-Facing Windows: Direct sunlight raises indoor temperatures and can warp frames. Sunshades help manage solar gain and UV damage efficiently.
• Don’t Ignore Local Building Codes: Bhopal Municipal Corporation (BMC) codes specify minimum window areas and fire safety standards. Always comply to avoid legal trouble and ensure safety.
• Don’t Skimp on Window Height or Placement: Poorly placed or undersized windows result in gloomy, poorly-ventilated rooms. Work with architects who optimize placement for daylight and airflow.
• Don’t Forget Anti-Termite and Waterproof Treatments: Especially if you’re using wood or installing in ground-level locations susceptible to pests or waterlogging.
