Standards for window openings in the house. Sizes of window openings

From the choice of size window openings the illumination and comfort of the residents depends. And if the inhabitants of the standard multi-storey buildings are deprived of the opportunity to choose the necessary windows, then residents of private houses easily experiment with increased window sizes. But at the same time, you need to consider a lot building regulations and properties so as not to reduce the thermal efficiency of the building and not pose a threat to the safety of residents.


Window blocks in the house

When choosing the final dimensions, one should clearly understand their dependence on the entire glazing area: when choosing large windows in wooden house it will be cold, when choosing small ones it will be dark, and this will lead to the constant use of additional light sources. You should find a middle ground and focus on building laws and regulations.

The choice of the size of windows in a wooden house will directly depend on their purpose and location.

When choosing the ratio of the area of ​​walls and glazing, the following patterns should be taken into account:

  • The shape and area of ​​the room. For rooms elongated in length, two or more windows are needed, but for small rooms one window in the center will be enough.
  • The location of the windows in relation to the light sides. Place large windows on the west and south sides - this will provide a large maximum. In such rooms, houseplants will feel very comfortable.
  • Appointment of the premises. Large windows are installed in offices and other rooms in which people are regularly and where required a large number of natural daylight.

As a rule, when designing such rooms, they are located on the south-west side of the building. For a bedroom, high-quality lighting is not particularly required, therefore it is located on the north or west side, and only one window block will be enough for it.


Finnish style in Scandinavian homes

Also, on the northern sides, it is customary to place the kitchen and other storage rooms of economic properties. Historical fact Previously, large windows were installed in or Scandinavian houses: because natural daylight improved mood and increased efficiency, which was important on short winter days. It was pleasant to be in these rooms all the time: bright natural daylight additionally could be enhanced by light and warm and a choice of white furniture.

Of course, it is ideal to copy the Finnish style in Russian houses not always possible, but some elements can still be borrowed.

Standard parameters and properties of window systems

For the manufacture of plastic window structures, you will have to contact the construction company, or if you want, directly to the manufacturer, and there you will be offered a standard assortment.

As a rule, the dimensions of the windows in a frame wooden house are as follows:


Choosing a larger sash is not entirely safe: glass is a fragile material and requires a special binding. If you plan on the second floor, then the door dimensions will be standard (height 2100-2200 mm, width 700-900 mm).

All of the listed window sizes are produced by most construction companies, and if you want to make an exclusive order, the window kit will come out significantly more expensive.

The standard parameters of window structures are designed for the same type of openings in multi-storey panel houses, and the demand for them is quite high, but orders for individual sizes construction companies perform much less frequently. Therefore, the cost is much higher. When designing, take into account the future location of all furniture and its dimensions.


Distance from window to floor

A typical standard window should be located at a height of 80 to 90 cm from the floor: this provides good overview both sitting and standing man, and you can put a desk or other piece of furniture under the windowsill. The upper edge of the block is usually located at a height of 220 to 230 cm from the floor.

Special requirements apply to indoor windows wooden bath: not required for the bathroom good lighting, but keeping and retaining heat is very important. Following these requirements, the standard bath window in the steam room is no more than 600 × 600 mm in size, and in the rest room the window can be made larger, for example, 1000 × 1200 mm.

Maximum size of plastic window construction

When choosing large individual window structures with an increased sash area, you need to know the existing requirements, enshrined in special building codes:

  • The area of ​​the entire structure should not be more than 6 square meters. meters. Otherwise, it may not withstand the wind load, and in adverse weather conditions, the glass unit may crack and crumble into fragments.
  • You should not ignore safety rules: weather conditions in different regions Russia is changeable and unpredictable. Large blocks should have partitions, and the leaf area should not be higher than 2.8 sq. m.Maximum allowable size sash is 110 × 240 cm.When designing window openings, keep in mind that large structure can quickly fail. A profile made of metal-plastic with a two-chamber (three-chamber) double-glazed unit will be very heavy, and due to the large weight, the fittings will soon begin to sag and sag. At the same time, the sash will be worn out, and it will begin to creak, it will be inconvenient to use such a structure and even more so unsafe. If you choose to install arched window, then its radius should not be less than 35 cm. The requirements for the large size of the sashes will be the same as for conventional rotary systems.

View of windows with panoramic glazing of the house

Failure to comply with these requirements may pose a threat to residents, so you should not ignore them even when. If you want to provide your home with good lighting, you need to order modern designs panoramic glazing from special tempered glass or the so-called triplex. Of course, their cost is much more expensive, but they are much safer and will provide all residents with a good view. When choosing which window size for your home you should order, you should take into account the specific climate and wind load in your region. If the winters are cold, then the heat will go away faster through the double-glazed windows, which means an annual increase in heating costs.

The size of the hole for the window block


Clearance for window in frame house

The dimensions of wooden windows in a frame house will not match the dimensions of the opening. They will have a large value, this tolerance is needed for the subsequent installation of the casing and the sill. From the planned height of the lower edge of the window, you need to retreat down about 5 cm: 4 cm is the thickness of the window sill and 1 cm is a layer of polyurethane foam. In its width, the hole exceeds the window by 14 cm: 5 cm on each side for installing and installing the casing and 2 cm on both sides for a layer of mounting foam for strong fastening.

At the top, the opening is about 10 cm larger: this gap is left, because it will drop over time. When calculating and planning, the lower edge of the frame should also be taken into account; it should not be located at a height of more than 1 m from the floor level. In this case, it is not very convenient to lean on the windowsill with your hands, and there will be insufficient lighting in the room.

Requirements for profile and double-glazed windows

When choosing a window block, you must also choose the right profile and double-glazed windows. It will be more difficult to choose if you install metal-plastic frames: since the number of offers on the construction market is growing, and you need to know exactly what criteria will suit you to a greater extent.

Here are some basic and important requirements:

  • The number of chambers in double-glazed windows. For country-type houses or for premises that will be used only in summer, a single-chamber double-glazed window can be supplied. However, in winter, such a package will not be enough. You will have to purchase double-glazed windows with air spaces, they will protect your home from freezing, although the cost will be much higher than single-layer bags.
  • The number of chambers in the plastic profile. The more cameras, the better profile keeps warm, because air is the best heat insulator. For a capital object, it is customary to choose a 3 or 4-chamber double-glazed window.
  • The choice of the seal. To choose of this material pay very little attention, and after all, thanks to the sealant, all cracks and drafts are eliminated. Cheap and rubber material will begin to "tan" and cease to perform its main functions. Some of the manufacturers offer transparent elastomer seals: its cost is higher, but protection from cold is much better and better.
  • Fittings. The main rule is not to save on it. Cheap locks, clamps, handles will quickly fail, and loosened hinges and a thin frame will certainly lead to skewing and sagging of all doors. As a result, you will have to spend money on expensive repairs, so the savings do not justify the investment.

Choice window systems for frame house Is a very difficult and responsible task, and it is better to discuss its solution with masters and professionals. The cheapest and affordable option- windows made of metal-plastic, they can be ordered at any construction company... Plastic window structures significantly affect environmental friendliness, therefore, when choosing them, you need to decide in advance the issue of high-quality

Before building a house (this applies not only to private houses, but also to apartment buildings), it is imperative to calculate the size of the windows. The window is not just a part of the home. It fills the premises with light, solar heat, enriches with oxygen through an open window. In addition, the size of the window opening determines technical specifications building boxes. This is important both for paperwork (in the case of new construction) and for the subsequent operation of the dwelling. Therefore, you should take this issue very seriously and perform preliminary calculations.

The size of the windows should be optimal, selected for a specific room and not go beyond the standards established by law. All calculations are performed in accordance with the requirements of GOST. Violation of these standards entails the imposition of an administrative fine, and the obligation to bring the window opening in accordance with the standards. It is better to entrust such calculations to experts in order to avoid unnecessary expenses later.

Often on the Internet, they do not indicate the size of the plastic window and simply write “standard”. It means that the window will be 1200 x 1200 in size. This does not always fit the opening, so you should immediately clarify what type and series the future window will be in order to avoid subsequent installation problems. It should be borne in mind that in different regions manufacturers may have their own idea of ​​the "standard size". To be clear, consider the generally accepted classification.

Types of apartments, depending on the window opening:

  • "Khrushchev";
  • “Stalinka”;
  • series 600.11;
  • series 600;
  • series 505;
  • series 504;
  • series 137;
  • a private house;
  • panel house.

Types of plastic windows, depending on the number of sashes:

  • bivalve;
  • tricuspid;
  • non-standard.

Each type and type exists with its own prescribed standards that construction firms adhere to. The firms that are engaged in the manufacture of windows are well aware of these standard varieties, so it will be enough just to name the type of your home and you will be selected correct window... However, even with such detailed prescriptions, careful measurement cannot be neglected. Relying on the standards and not measuring the opening, you can get a window that either does not fit into the allotted space at all, or it will form cracks where cold and moisture will immediately penetrate.

Standardization of window blocks and openings

During the preparation of a project for any type of building, window openings must be provided. Their sizes are standardized and depend, first of all, on the area of ​​the room, its purpose and position. The windows in the northern part of the building may be larger than in the southern, because the sun looks there less often and less light enters the room. In addition, given the climatic features of the region, windows on north side buildings must meet a certain temperature regime... If technological moments do not comply, the windows will leak in winter.

The rules for calculating standard window sizes are indicated in state regulations. According to special formulas, the lighting coefficient of premises for any purpose is considered (different norms are provided for residential and public) located south of 60 and north of 45 degrees of latitude. When calculating indicators, take into account the need to clean double-glazed windows at least twice a year. But this is only provided for buildings that are not exposed to heavy pollution... Otherwise, you will have to clean it a little more often.

When the building is located south of 45 degrees latitude, in this case, the illumination level is multiplied by a factor of 0.75, and if it is north of the above limit, then the factor is increased by 1.2 times. The physical and emotional state depends on the accuracy of the calculation. It is a proven fact that with insufficient lighting, a person becomes more irritable, quickly becomes depressed.

Windows in "Khrushchev"

In the days of socialism, Khrushchev apartments were built in order to provide each citizen with personal housing. Of course, the size of such apartments is small, so window firms took action and started selling special windows for this type of dwelling. Most of the Khrushchevs are built of blocks, which has kept the number of seams to a minimum. For such premises, double-glazed windows are best suited.

For these buildings, the best option a double-glazed window of the following dimensions is considered:

  • frame thickness 5.8 - 7 cm;
  • width and height: 145-220 cm.

Windows in a panel house

Panel houses are made up of special panel blocks. Window openings in such buildings often have diagonal distortions. Often there is a difference between the upper and lower widths, forming a trapezoidal opening. Therefore, it is required to take measurements very carefully. When dismantling windows in panel houses, less debris remains than brick houses.

The window opening in this type of house has the so-called quarters - projections in the shape of the letter "G". When installing, you need to pay attention that the frame goes over a quarter by 10-15 mm.

Windows in 606 series of houses

Buildings in this series have thick walls with excellent sound insulation... Window blocks in such houses can have 1-3 sashes, wide window sills, protection from drafts. Previously, wooden windows were inserted into them, but now there is an opportunity to pick up excellent plastic models. They increase the protection against heat escaping from the room. Companies provide for special standard sizes windows for this series, so you do not need to adjust them to the opening. Their height is 141 cm, plus / minus 2-3 cm.The width depends on the number of valves.

Such houses were built in the 80s and have changed somewhat since then. But everything also remained attractive to buyers thanks to thick walls, spacious staircases and large living space. Main feature such houses - L-shaped windows installed in the kitchen. They were invented in order to accommodate massive air conditioners, especially popular in those days. However, now such aggregates are not used, and the windows remain. Companies offer high quality windows of this type. Most of it opens with a handle, and a small window can be made fixed or also swinging.

Windows in 600 series of houses (Ship)

The houses of this series got their name due to the similarity with the superstructure on the liners. Windows in such buildings have openings, the window sills of which are raised to such a height that they are at the chest level of an average person. They can have 3 leaves, in which 2 moving parts can be installed. The window is designed in such a way that its parts are separated by jumpers. They can only be replaced with an expander.

When installing plastic windows in houses of this type, so-called cover strips are used.

Fitting the shackles to the 137 series is simple and straightforward. Window sizes are standard here - three- or two-leafed, as well as balcony blocks... When installing windows, in this case, only one question can arise: what size the sashes will be and how they will divide the window. In old versions of windows, the side parts are 45-50 cm. In general, you can divide the window with sashes in any variation, taking into account that it will be problematic to wash the blind windows from the outside.

Slopes in such windows are no more than 25 cm, and the window sill does not exceed 30 cm, the height is 138-142 cm.

Windows in private houses

Private houses delight with relative freedom in terms of choosing the size of the openings for windows. Here you can install several windows of equal dimensions, or make a whole transparent wall. Windows of various sizes are often used for different premises... For example, they choose wide and spacious ones for the living room, and for a smaller bedroom with two doors. A window with one sash can be placed in the bathroom. Dimensions for them correspond to general standards, are selected for openings.

Windows to "Stalinka"

Apartments of this type have spacious indoor spaces, high ceilings and large windows. Some difficulties may arise during installation. Replacing old wooden frames is accompanied by a lot of rubbish. Lifting windows to an apartment is often quite difficult in the absence of an elevator. When installing the window, you will need a lot of foam, since in brick walls there may be gaps, irregularities that need to be blown out polyurethane foam so that the window does not allow moisture, heat or cold to pass through.

The height of the windows is about 173 cm, the width depends on the specific model chosen.

Plastic Window Standards

The standard sizes of plastic windows are fixed in GOST and have quite definite norms. The companies that manufacture them use the prescribed sizes, which differ in the number of doors, height, width. Each regulation has a number of situations when it should be applicable. For example, in small room there is nowhere to put a large three-leaf window, therefore, in this case, standards are provided for two- and one-leaf models.

Double-leaf plastic windows

They are versatile and very common. Such models are suitable both for an apartment or a private house, and for offices, small shops, cafes, kindergartens, schools and other buildings. The most common are the following dimensions of this type: 1150 x 1900 mm; 1300 x 2200 mm; 1500 x 1900 mm. The sash can be both stationary and movable, and it is possible to install the window in such a way that both parts will open completely.

Custom windows

These windows are very diverse in their external design and have decorative view... They are mainly placed in private houses and decorate mansions with attics, attic spaces, outbuildings, etc. They delight with a variety of forms:

  • a circle;
  • square;
  • hexagon;
  • oval;
  • triangle;
  • arch;
  • trapezoid, etc.

The dimensions of such products are selected individually for the opening and do not have clear standards, therefore they are made mainly to order.

A very complex and multi-stage process is the construction of buildings and various structures. The structure of the house built must be strong, earthquake-resistant and, of course, durable. For a long time, special standards (GOSTs) have been created, which the window opening must also comply with. The dimensions indicated in them must be strictly observed. Construction standards regulate materials, sizes of buildings, window and door openings.

Window openings in the construction of residential buildings

For design and construction apartment buildings there are standard sizes of window openings. The same rules must be used when building a private residential building. You can save a lot with this Money, as well as most time. That is why many people ask the following question: "What are the GOST dimensions of window openings?"

In fact, there are no particularly strict standards regarding the size of window openings or their height relative to the floor. Therefore, no one bothers to design windows the way they like. But still, there are some rules that are recommended to be followed. In addition, typical window openings have a number of advantages:

  1. Standard double-glazed windows are actually cheaper than exclusive ones.
  2. picking up will be much easier.
  3. Repairs and maintenance can be done much faster.

The window opening, the dimensions of which must correspond to GOST, consists of a certain number of sashes. Currently, either double-leaf or three-leaf windows are mainly installed. With the help of them, you can easily provide an excellent overview and open access to the apartment.

Window opening: dimensions

The most common sizes for double-leaf window openings are the following (height * width):

  1. 1300 * 1350 mm.
  2. 1400 * 1300 mm.
  3. 1450 * 1500 mm.

The most common standard sizes of window openings with three sashes are as follows (height * width):

  1. 1400 * 2050 mm.
  2. 2040 * 1500 mm.
  3. 2040 * 1350 mm.

In addition to the standards that the window opening must comply with, GOST also regulates which is calculated based on the type of room. One of important factors is the presence heating appliances or others additional elements decor. IN production area windows should start from the floor and match the height of human height, which provides better lighting.

Standard height of window sills in a residential building

  1. Bedroom - 700-900 mm, this height provides excellent visibility and lighting. It should be remembered that the distance from the radiator to the window sill must be at least 80 mm.
  2. Kitchen - 1200-1300 mm, in this case, the height is due to the need to place kitchen furniture.
  3. A bathroom or a bath is at least 1600 mm, this will help protect yourself from prying eyes, which is why the windows are made so high.
  4. Utility rooms - 1200-1600 mm, this height is due to the fact that there is a high probability of excess humidity due to the influx of cold air.

Types of window openings

Currently, there are only 11 types of window openings:

  1. Plain rectangular window.
  2. Revolving window.
  3. A window in a niche.
  4. Panoramic window.
  5. French window.
  6. Bay window.
  7. Curved top window.
  8. Curved window.
  9. Sliding frame window.
  10. Casement window.

How to take measurements correctly?

Window openings are of two types: with quarters and without - this affects the choice of window size. In panel or brick house it is necessary to measure the openings on both sides.

In order to take a measurement, you should prepare the following tools: a tape measure, a metal ruler, a screwdriver, as well as a sheet of paper and a pen to record the results. Using these tips, you can easily measure a window opening, the dimensions of which must comply with GOST:

  1. It is necessary to determine the width of the opening between the inner slopes in the immediate vicinity of the wooden window and, accordingly, along their edges.
  2. Next, the height of the window opening between the upper inner slope and the window sill in the immediate vicinity of the window is usually measured, as well as the height between the edge of the upper inner slope and a windowsill.
  3. Then you should open the window and measure the window opening from the street side. It is necessary to measure the width of the window opening between. The width should be measured both from the bottom and from the top of the opening.
  4. With a screwdriver, which has already been prepared, it is necessary to dismantle the outside of the opening (it will still have to be removed).

Finishing window openings

Slope trim can be done using several materials. Such finishing material as siding has the following technical characteristics:

  • Durability.
  • Practicality.
  • Fire resistance.
  • Moisture resistance.

Siding can be used not only for internal works but also for outdoor. In order to attach the siding, you do not need to level the surface, and this is a plus, because less time will be spent.

When using plaster, you must have experience with this material. Plastering the slopes of window openings with plaster is the most reliable and practical way... To work you will need:

  • Large and small spatulas.
  • Starter plaster solution.
  • Finishing plaster solution.
  • Sandpaper.
  • Level.

Plastic has good technical characteristics:

  • Durability.
  • Practicality.
  • Moisture resistance.
  • Strength.

It is necessary to clean the plastic only with a damp cloth, do not use abrasive products, as they can scratch it.

More recently, such a material for finishing window openings as stucco molding has appeared. With the help of it, you can give the windows a luxurious and rich look. But you need to remember that the surface must be perfectly flat. Such hard work can only be done by a professional. The stucco molding consists of plaster and plaster mortar. It is because of this that it will be best to contact a specialist.

Each type of finish has its own zest, it must be selected depending on the interior of the room.

Before building a house, you need to be very careful about the size of the windows. The size of the windows must be optimal. According to GOST, it is provided total area windows should not exceed 6 m2, the area of ​​the opening part should not exceed 2.5 m2. To get quality, reliability and practicality in the glazing of your future home, you need to strictly comply with all the requirements of building codes and regulations and of course the state standard. If during construction country house if you decide on a panoramic glazing device, then you need to take into account that the area of ​​one stained glass is no more than 6 m2. This will save you a lot of confusion, and the vendors will provide you with a wide variety of window boxes.

When purchasing finished products, first of all, you need to pay attention to the area of ​​the opening parts. Their size should not exceed 2.5 m2. Otherwise, you need to request a quality certificate and an act for performing tests on safe operation... The reason is non-compliance with the state standard ensuring the safe use of the product.

It is imperative to check that the mass of the opening elements is no more than 80 kg (according to GOST - a maximum of 75). This can lead to destruction of the window unit and injury to users.

The windows should be opened inside the room, except for those overlooking the balcony or loggia, otherwise this should be indicated in the project.

Competent calculation of the size of GOST windows is carried out according to special generally accepted formulas.

Window openings should be designed taking into account the standards of GOST. GOST assumes a state standard.

This standard will help to understand the features, main advantages and disadvantages of wooden, plastic, PVC windows.

It should be noted that it is in GOST 11214-86 and GOST 23166-99 "Wooden windows and balcony doors with double glazing for residential and public buildings»All the requirements and features of windows and doors and their standardization are spelled out.

A special standardization was carried out for all the features and the norms for the dimensions of the opening and windows were designated for heights of 60, 90, 120, 135, 150, 180 cm, and widths, 60, 90, 100, 120, 150, 180.

So, the following values ​​are prescribed in GOST: 560x870 (opening 610x910); 560х1170 (opening 610х1210); 860x870; 860x1170; 860x1320; 860x1470; 1160x870 (1170, 1320, 1470); 1460x (1170, 1320, 1470).

Standard windows sizes gost

All windows have differences and, according to GOST, are divided according to methods into rooms that open inward, open outward and do not open (they are most often called deaf). At the same time, GOST states that it is impractical to use blind windows above the first floor, because there is no possibility of airing the premises. The exception is window blocks overlooking the balcony and measuring 400 x 800. Installation of blind windows in other rooms is stipulated in the project.

In typical rooms, window sizes often have their own characteristics and can be different.

therefore standard windows the dimensions of GOST in some cases may mean approximate values ​​and can be adjusted. In the manufacture of window blocks, a deviation of the linear dimensions of +2 and -1 mm is allowed. The deviation of the diagonal size of a rectangular window block with a side length of up to 1400 mm is allowed 2 mm, if the side is longer, then 3 mm.

Sizes according to standards can be different, for example, up to 15 cm, and in panel rooms the average size of a window with 2 sashes is 1.3 m in height and 1.4 m in width. Three-leaf windows with a height of 1400 mm, widths from 2050 to 2750 mm.

For example, in rooms of the "Khrushchev" type, windows that have wide window sills are approximately 1.45 m by 1.5 m, and with narrow window sills - 1.3 m by 1.35 m. affordable price PVC windows.

Thus, the dimensions of the windows in the "Khrushchev" largely depend on the width of the window sill itself.

When calculating dormer window units, typical standard dimensions are taken as a basis, however, the angle of inclination of the roof must always be taken into account. The more the slope of the roof, the higher the height of the window. The distance between the rafters should be 40-60 mm larger than the window size.

Gost for plastic windows dimensions

Currently, plastic windows are found and manufactured in all sizes and shapes of varying degrees of complexity.

Plastic windows today are the most optimal and demanded type of windows, since they are very practical, electrostatic, frost-resistant and quite reliable.

That is, all the necessary thermophysical and mechanical parameters are properly observed. Plastic windows today are already quite affordable for the masses.

When purchasing and installing such windows, it is also necessary to take into account GOST dimensions for plastic windows.

According to GOST, the standard sizes of plastic windows are not universal: their sizes can vary up to 10-15 cm.

For example, the dimensions of a double-leaf window in panel house are equal to 1300 by 1400 mm. The size of a three-leaf window is 2050-2070mm by 1400mm. Other parameters have windows in the "Khrushchev" premises: 1450 by 1500 mm and 1300 by 1350 mm and 2040 by 1500 mm.

Determine the dimensions of a standard plastic window and make correct calculation the approximate cost is possible only by knowing the type of house.

IN recent times very common cases are seen when there are many orders for the manufacture of large windows. Large plastic windows look quite aesthetically pleasing, attractive and solid.

Interesting! Plastic puddles flow on the windowsill (Water),

It can be made more, but you need to take into account the fact that this option will be very unreliable and soon the structure will deteriorate.

In the case of the presence of blind valves, we note that optimal solution will be, if you do not make them more than 1000 sq. mm, otherwise a huge load on the glass unit will be felt, which will lead to defects and various damage.

In fact, you can order plastic windows of any size, even not standard ones, another question is whether this window will fit your room and look neat and reliable.

If we proceed from economic considerations, then it is a standard plastic window that will cost you less than a non-standard ordered one.
