Fixed adoption Expansion bolt + subframe fixation It is strictly prohibited to rely solely on expanded polystyrene for load-bearing. Elastic thermal insulation material shall be filled between the frame and the wall, and weather-resistant sealant shall be applied on the exterior for waterproofing.

Elastic shims must be placed between the glass and the framing members to prevent direct, rigid contact and thereby avoid compression-induced spontaneous breakage. After installation, verify that the sash operates smoothly and that the seal is watertight, with no leakage, to eliminate the risk of subsequent deformation and cracking.
