An Italian renovation featuring FAKRO INNOVIEW windows and doors in a modernised detached house in Garda

In a detached house in the picturesque Italian town of Garda, located on the eastern shore of the lake of the same name, the windows and balcony doors were replaced to improve the building’s functionality while preserving its architectural character. The investor was looking for a solution that would combine attractive design with performance meeting modern construction standards. FAKRO INNOVIEW vertical windows and doors were selected and manufactured to match the dimensions of the existing openings.

New vertical windows and doors

The project involved the installation of tilt-and-turn windows and balcony doors manufactured in the SOFT 68 system with a CLASSIC sash profile. The windows and doors were made of pine wood finished in Concrete Grey, while the exterior was fitted with aluminium cladding in a white shade, RAL 9010 FS. This combination blended harmoniously with both the building façade and the interior design, maintaining a consistent character throughout the property.

Window replacement with FAKRO installation consultation

The project was carried out in a house that remained in everyday use, so it was important to limit the construction work to the necessary minimum. The selected solutions made it possible to replace the windows and doors efficiently while preserving the existing architecture of the building. The new units were installed in previously prepared openings, replacing older structures with lower performance parameters. Precise adaptation to the existing technical conditions was particularly important, which is why all elements were custom-made.

The contractors also received support in the form of a FAKRO installation consultation. Its purpose was to verify the proposed technical solutions and discuss the optimum installation method. This support helped reduce the risk of installation errors, improve the efficiency of the work and ensure that the windows and doors were correctly connected to the building’s external wall.

A difference visible every day

The new windows and doors improved both the appearance of the building and everyday comfort. Their understated colour scheme emphasised the contemporary character of the interiors without disrupting the style typical of Italian residential architecture. The use of FAKRO INNOVIEW windows and doors, combined with installation consultation and the manufacturer’s technical support, made it possible to complete the project in a carefully planned way tailored to the specific characteristics of the existing building.
