Windows and Doors: Securing and Sealing Your Akiya

Writer's picture: David LakeDavid Lake



Properly sealed windows and doors not only enhance security but also improve energy efficiency in your akiya.


Why Maintenance is Important





  1. Energy Savings: Drafty windows and doors can lead to higher heating and cooling costs.

  2. Preventing Moisture: Poor sealing can allow rain and humidity to enter, causing mold and rot.

  3. Improved Security: Sturdy locks and frames deter break-ins.


Maintenance Tips


  • Inspect Regularly: Look for cracks, gaps, or broken seals.

  • Install Weather Stripping: Seal gaps to reduce drafts and improve insulation.

  • Upgrade Locks: Invest in modern locking mechanisms for better security.
