Aluminium Window and Door Quote Process Melbourne

From Plans to Windows & Doors

A clear project process helps builders and homeowners move from initial plans or replacement requirements to a confirmed aluminium window and door package with fewer assumptions and clearer responsibilities.

01 — Send Project Information

Builders: send architectural plans, elevations, window and door schedules and the energy report where available. Homeowners: send the property address, photos, approximate opening sizes and the windows or doors you want to replace.

02 — Project Review & Quotation

JL reviews the available information and prepares a project-based quotation. The proposed scope can include Essential Series, Thermal Series or other suitable options together with glass, colour, hardware, flyscreens, delivery and installation requirements.

Where project performance is relevant, review the AS 2047 performance summary and whole-window thermal data.

03 — Measure-Up or Documentation Check

For replacement projects, an on-site measure can be arranged where required after the initial scope is understood. For new construction, current drawings, opening details and project documentation are reviewed before final confirmation.

04 — Final Specification & Approval

Before manufacture, confirm every opening reference, quantity, width, height, configuration, handing direction, frame system, glass, colour, hardware, flyscreens, reveals and agreed scope. Where drawings have changed, confirm the revision that controls the order.

05 — Manufacture & Project Coordination

Windows and doors are manufactured to the confirmed order information. Project timing depends on the approved specification, materials, manufacturing programme and any site dependencies. Changes after approval can affect pricing and timing.

06 — Delivery or Installation

The agreed quotation identifies whether the scope is supply only, collection, delivery or supply and installation. Site access, storage, opening readiness, floor levels, removal requirements and surrounding building work should be coordinated before the scheduled date.

07 — Handover & After-Sales Support

Where installation is included, final checks can include operation, locks, rollers, seals, drainage and the immediate work area. Keep the confirmed quotation, drawings and invoice with the project records.

For an after-sales issue, provide the project or order name, affected opening reference, clear description and supporting photos or video. This helps identify whether the next step relates to adjustment, hardware, glass, manufacture, installation or surrounding building work.
