Why Glazing Is a High-Stakes Item for Builders
In NSW, windows and doors can be a project’s silent budget killer. Fail a bushfire attack level (BAL) assessment or fall short on thermal performance, and you’re looking at costly delays, reorders, and the dreaded approval resubmission.
For builders working in BAL-rated zones or chasing NatHERS energy targets, the glazing you specify has to be right the first time. That means not only meeting the National Construction Code (NCC) and Australian Standards but also making sure your supplier can back you with the right documentation and technical support.
Smart Glazing Choices for NSW Builders
Integrate with Thermal Design
Match glazing choices with insulation, shading, and ventilation strategies for optimal NatHERS performance.
Go Above Minimum
If a site is on the edge of two BAL zones, consider specifying the higher rating from the start to avoid disputes.
Choose Local Manufacturing
Shorter lead times and easier replacement if required.
Bundle Windows and Doors
Sourcing both from one supplier improves consistency and simplifies compliance documentation.
