Lumon’s Low Maintenance Solutions for Your New Construction or Renovation Project

Lower maintenance with high-quality glazing

Balcony glazing preserves the exterior of the building by providing a protective layer that shields the balcony from harsh weather conditions, UV radiation, and other external factors that can cause wear and tear over time. The glazing can also prevent dirt and debris from accumulating on the balcony, which can help to maintain its appearance and extend its lifespan for up to 30 years. Balcony glazing reduces the need for balcony renovations by half and markedly cuts down the life cycle costs of the property.

Low maintenance needed with Lumon balcony glazing

Maintenance intervals are 5-10 years longer

A glazed balcony protects the façade and windows, extending the life of balcony structures by 5–10 years and reducing the frequency of refurbishments. Installing retractable glazing right after renovation helps prevent moisture damage and keeps the space in good condition. Even older balconies can gain an additional 5–10 years of serviceable life.
