Windows & Doors in Older Houses

Windows & doors on older houses, written by Liselotte Jarneruo Nilsson. A very useful and inspiring book about doors, windows, glass coloring.

Back text: The experts' advice to those who want to renovate and restore their old house is to do as little as possible. This applies especially to windows and doors. There are far too many examples of failed interventions, where the house's architecture and age have not been taken into account. This book aims to remedy that. Windows & doors on older houses want to encourage homeowners to preserve the house's old windows and doors instead of replacing them. In the book, which is a mix of facts, history, and practical do-it-yourself instructions, the reader receives the necessary knowledge and tools to succeed with the renovation and maintenance of the house's windows and doors. The book is richly illustrated with both photos and drawings that show both the typical differences in design and details over the years, as well as how the practical renovation and maintenance work is carried out.
