There are several options for glazing gazebos. Each has its own properties, price and installation complexity. Glazing is used to protect the interior of a room and people sitting inside from external weather conditions: rain, wind, dust, snow.
Depending on your wishes and climatic conditions area at your dacha or in the village, you can choose the appropriate option and implement it on your site.
First of all, you need to decide what you want to achieve in your gazebo? Options in in this case only two.
Warm - implies complete protection of the gazebo from external weather conditions, including winter ones, by installing triple glazed windows.
This method will allow you to achieve a comfortable temperature even at sub-zero temperatures outside the window, provided that the floor, walls and roof are insulated. It is used if you also want to use the gazebo in winter.
If you need warm glazing (plastic or warm aluminum), we recommend the Moscow company PVC Window Plant. The price ranges from approximately 3,600 - 7,000 rubles per m2.
Cold - in this case, you can protect the gazebo only from rain, wind and dust.
It will not be possible to significantly increase the temperature inside, although it can be used for the spring and autumn seasons. A cold look is aesthetically pleasing and effective, but unreliable when compared to a warm one.
- Warm - capital and reliable way glazing.
- Cold - beautiful and stylish, but short-lived.
Reliable warm glazing with triple glazing (Eurowindow)
An option for those who value reliability, durability and simplicity. Installing triple glazed windows will maximize the protection of the gazebo from external conditions. The most popular option is installation casement windows, which can be opened for ventilation and closed for protection.
The profile can be used from PVC (white plastic, as in new buildings) or wood. The second option is more aesthetically pleasing and cleaner, from an environmental point of view, but more expensive and less durable.
Most often, it is advisable to install a standard double-glazed window with PVC and forget about for many years. The photo below shows options with both PVC and wood.
Traditional glazing with wooden windows
Of course, the windows themselves are made of glass, but the frames are wooden. Similar windows can be seen in old houses; in the USSR they were everywhere.
It is enough to install the window, install the glass and secure it with wooden glazing beads. It’s difficult to find a cheaper and easier option. If you drive around the villages, you can buy cheap from someone wooden frames, from which it will be possible to glaze the gazebo.
The option is quite working. And if you don’t want to spend money and a lot of time, it’s ideal.
All gazebos with wooden windows look almost the same. If you choose the right color, you can achieve good aesthetics of your room both outside and inside.
Glazing of gazebos with aluminum profiles
Price aluminum glazing- from 2,700 - 6,000 thousand per m2. We took the prices from the website of the Moscow company "PVC Window Factory", from the page: This manufacturer produces and installs all types of glazing (except polycarbonate): aluminum, plastic, frameless, sliding, wooden windows. Focusing only on the price per m2 is quite difficult, so to find out the cost of your project, it’s easier to call or leave a request.
This glazing method involves installing one double-glazed window in aluminum profile, thanks to which you can achieve panoramic windows. Gazebos with similar glazing look very beautiful, and the frames can be painted in the color you want.
There is an option with sliding windows- it is very practical and aesthetically pleasing, although the installation process is more expensive and complex. If the gazebo will not be used in winter, but you need reliable glazing, aluminum will come in handy. It is not as expensive as a Euro window.
Aluminum glazing will cost you about half as much as installing plastic European windows with triple glazing.
It is important to understand that aluminum glazing is cold, so such covering will not make the room much warmer.
If you want to create a gazebo inside comfortable temperature, then you can install a potbelly stove, and you will need to additionally make a chimney - if the gazebo is high, then the chimney will cost more than the stove itself.
Frameless glazing of gazebos (frameless, Finnish)
Speaking about the frameless glazing method, we mean the use of glass fixed in the sashes at the top and bottom.
Depending on the design, the doors can open, close, be fixed, move and even fold (the photo below shows a folding design). These glasses are regulated using a control located just below the glass inside the gazebo.
This option looks very attractive, but has a number of obvious disadvantages.
- Low sealing. Sooner or later, snow, rain and even dust will begin to fall indoors. The use of such glass wears out the entire structure.
- Absence mosquito nets. In the summer it will be difficult to protect yourself from mosquitoes, except with plates or electric repellers.
- Low sound insulation. Everything is heard, everything is seen - not for everyone.
Soft glass (PVC film)
Link to a more complete article on this topic -.
The film can be used to cover not only temporary holes or openings in the gazebo, but also to fully glaze the windows. There are several options for introducing PVC film.
- Fastening through eyelets or fasteners. In this case, you buy a special film designed to fit your size. window openings, with fastenings around the perimeter. This is a more expensive and “flexible” option that can be removed as needed.
- Fastening with staples and wooden blocks. It’s very similar to preserving a structure for the winter, only everything is done much more aesthetically. The film is stretched along the perimeter of the opening and is first fixed with staples, and then nailed or screwed onto self-tapping screws through wooden blocks.
This method is perfectly implemented in the gazebo presented in the video below. The man was not too lazy to install a potbelly stove, so in winter you can feel comfortable inside.
IN modern construction Polycarbonate has become a very popular material that is used everywhere. Polycarbonate can not only cover the gazebo from the sun's rays or make a roof, but also fully glaze the window openings.
Transparent material is used to allow entry sun rays, but matte to cover one or another view.
Cellular or monolithic polycarbonate use for glazing is a question for discussion in another publication. In this case, it is important to understand that such a method is possible. The photo above shows the cellular version.
There can really be a lot of options. In the selection of photographs below, solutions for gazebos were selected different types. All of these photos are potential ideas for glazing your space.
If you have personal plot or do you live in country house, you can make your leisure time even more enjoyable. A glass gazebo with a barbecue grill will become great opportunity have a good time enjoying the outdoors.
This gazebo can easily accommodate a small company. And if you do large structure, then you can put a sofa in it with a table for tea drinking and arrange dining area for family dinners and holidays. If you equip the gazebo with a stove, then you can spend not only wonderful summer evenings in it, but also enjoy relaxation in the winter.
Types of gazebos
When designing a gazebo, it is worth considering what time of year it will be used. Depending on this, the preferred option is selected.
Open gazebos are most often decorated with openwork structures. A place with a barbecue grill is usually located under a canopy, which provides shelter from the rain. Semi-open designs require the presence of walls, but only partially. But completely closed ones resemble small ones cozy houses, where you can install a stove and spend as much time there as you like on the coldest rainy or snowy days.
The shapes of gazebos can be very diverse. It all depends on imagination and the ability to bring your idea to life. An originally designed gazebo can become not only a favorite place to relax, but also an important element landscape design.
The easiest option is to build a rectangular structure. It can be divided into areas for cooking and relaxation. Thanks to the convenient shape of such a gazebo, it can be easily placed anywhere: along a fence, path, next to other objects.
Square design- also a good option, but most likely it is more suitable for small groups of people.
The most elegant option is a round gazebo. Next to it is usually placed beautiful flower beds and trees. An appropriate interior is created inside the gazebo. Furniture of smooth shapes with round table, located in the center.
If you have an idea to place a stove, dining area and seating areas in the gazebo, then the most suitable option will be a hexagonal or octagonal design.
Corner gazebos are good for those cases when there is free space in the corner of the plot. This design will look original, but at the same time space will be saved.
Sizes of structures
The height of the gazebo must be at least two meters. The best option is a size of at least three square meters, allowing you to place everything you need. However, you should also pay attention to the proportions of other objects located in the garden area. Everything should look harmonious.
At large areas you can conceive any design and decorate it in a certain style.
Materials for construction
When choosing building materials you need to consider what the gazebo will be intended for. If you plan to cook food over a fire in this room, care must be taken to ensure that the walls can withstand the effects of steam, as well as temperature changes. The last condition is explained by the fact that such premises are not heated constantly, but only from time to time.
A traditional wooden gazebo looks good in the garden. Wood is resistant and durable; the main thing is to treat the surface with a special fire-fighting compound. Materials such as timber and boards are suitable for work.
You can build stone or brick gazebo. You can make a barbecue from the same materials. In such a gazebo it will be cozy and warm, it will last a long time. However, such construction will cost you a lot.
When creating a gazebo, you can combine different materials, make expressive accents. This design will look even more interesting. But most original version– this is a glazed gazebo. Panoramic glazing allows you to sit by a cozy fire and admire the landscape outside the window.
Oven options
Before you seriously start designing a gazebo, you need to decide what type of stove will be installed there. It can be a small roaster or a whole complex for preparing a wide variety of dishes.
A stationary brick oven can include a stove with oven, grill and even a smoker. It is not easy to build such a stove, so you will have to stock up on time, materials and study all the fire safety rules.
It’s a little easier to build a stove with a barbecue. This option is suitable for those who mostly cook using skewers. A variation of the same design can be a barbecue. In this case, the food will be cooked on the grill.
More practical equipment includes a barbecue made of metal and adapted for carrying. If you plan to use it only in a gazebo, you can decorate it with bricks laid around it.
The barbecue grill can be installed separately, mounted into a wall, or placed directly in the center of the room, and a hood installed above it. With this arrangement, each family member or guest will have the opportunity to contribute to the preparation of the holiday dish.
The easiest option is a grill. It can be moved anywhere convenient place. Grills are on the market various designs, so you can easily find a model that will fit perfectly into the interior of the gazebo.
In addition to all the cooking equipment, a fireplace would also be appropriate here. This will not only allow you to cook delicious dishes, but also enjoy the warmth and pleasant atmosphere.
A favorite place to relax in the garden is a gazebo. But if it suddenly rains or the wind blows, it’s uncomfortable to stay in it, so early spring or in the fall it’s uncomfortable to be in it. But if there were glass, the gazebo would turn into a wonderful summer house with excellent panoramic views. And implementing the idea is not as difficult as it seems. You can install a glass gazebo with your own hands, the main thing is to choose the type and shape of the gazebo, find the most beautiful place for it in the garden.

For frames, it is best to use an aluminum profile - a lightweight, pliable metal material.

The thickness of the glass for such large buildings can be 8-10 mm - practically unbreakable, very reliable and durable, and holds both cold and heat well.
If you still opt for a traditional gazebo with large panoramic windows, then try to make the edging small, so the whole gazebo will seem light, even with a heavy roof.
Foundation for the summer version
To install a glass building, a columnar foundation is sufficient. This is not a permanent structure, unlike more reliable design to do strip foundation. However, given the fact that glass is a heavy material, if there are no durable load-bearing structures, it’s still worth pouring a narrow strip foundation.
Glazing
For cold glazing you just need an aluminum profile that will hold the glass. When fastening triplex, use point fasteners, you can use stainless steel pipes as the frame to which the glass is attached - you choose the material according to your taste. For simple moving out, as in a residential building, you use ordinary frames - the most permanent type of insulation summer gazebo. Read about metal, forged gazebos for summer cottages.
