Small loads, big loads

When we wash the windows at the DPG Media Belgium stations in Vilvoorde, it involves a bit more than just a chamois and a squeegee. The studio windows consist of two large acoustic glass panels measuring 6 by 3 meters with an air gap in between. Six years after installation, it was time to wash the inside of the glass. Enter: a crane to lift the 580 to 800-kilogram windows out of the structure. Last Saturday, in the early morning, that crane was neatly delivered by a larger crane to the Kleurt-Je-Dag square. Safety first: to carry out this job, the floor was supported from the parking garage underneath the building. All's well that ends well: upon their return after the summer, the DJs can once again make radio with a clear view. Thanks to J&M Cleaning for washing the windows and to De Kraanman for the precision work.
