Tony Dunn
MBC Project - Oknoplast - Windows are an extremely significant part of a home, affecting so many aspects – appearance, functionality, security. They are often the first thing that catch the eye and determine the overall impression of the building. Nearly everything in windows can be explained well using comparisons to cars. Many factors that determine the quality of cars are also applicable to windows and vice versa. It is also true for both that there’s no such thing as the cheapest and the best, but it’s possible to find a good balance for the best value for money. Different people with different budgets will always look at different product categories.
