Your project in the canton of Lucerne
The canton of Lucerne is centred on the city of the same name, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, and extends into the Entlebuch and the Seetal. Lucerne's old town, with its covered bridges and painted façades, has many old buildings where lorry access is restricted. Kriens, Emmenbrücke and Ebikon form the suburban area, with many rental blocks and condominium flats. On the lakeshore, Meggen and Horw feature villas and houses with views. Further west, Sursee and Willisau have kept small old towns surrounded by countryside and farms. The canton is German-speaking, but you can explain your project in English in your request. For work on an old building or the exterior, check with your municipality. Give the municipality and postcode, the available delivery space and access to the building's different floors.
- In Lucerne's old town, describe vehicle access and whether there is a goods lift.
- For a lakeside villa, say whether the plot is sloping and how it can be reached.
- In a condominium in the suburbs, state whether the work affects the communal areas.
Doors and windows in the canton of Lucerne
In the canton of Lucerne, door and window projects are concentrated around the city and the shores of Lake Lucerne. In Lucerne, the old-town buildings with painted façades retain timber windows faithful to their style, and the municipality must be consulted before changing their appearance. In Meggen and Horw, houses with a view of the water opt for large sliding panels and very clear glass. The many apartment buildings in Kriens and Emmenbrücke are subject to grouped replacements organised by the property management company. In the Lucerne countryside, around Willisau, farms and timber rural houses need sturdy joinery and well-insulated front doors.
- For a lakeside villa, ask for slim aluminium or wood-aluminium frames to maximise the glazed area facing the water.
- For a farm in the Lucerne countryside, choose timber windows with a good exterior treatment against damp from the fog.

Frequently asked questions
How should I choose new windows in Lucerne?
Compare frame materials such as wood, plastic, aluminium or wood-aluminium, depending on appearance and maintenance. Look at the glazing, the thermal and acoustic performance and the security features. Ask the installer how the old frames will be removed and the new ones sealed.
Can new glazing be fitted while retaining the existing frame?
The frame's condition, dimensions and hardware determine whether this is practical. Explain the problem and provide photographs of the complete opening. Ask for an inspection of seals and surrounding construction; changing the glass alone will not address every source of draughts or moisture.
What should I compare in doors and windows quotes?
Compare frame and glass specifications, opening functions, removal and installation. Check sealing, internal and external making good, and work on blinds or shutters. Ensure performance claims relate to the specified assembly and ask what documentation and maintenance information will be provided.
How should I prepare for the doors and windows visit or work?
Photograph the opening inside and outside from safe positions. Note furniture, blinds and access restrictions that affect fitting. Agree final measurements and frame colour before manufacture, and discuss how rooms will be protected while the old openings are removed.
