I am about to install upvc french doors and two seperate (but attached to the doors) windows. I am aware of the fixings for the brickwork but what, if any ,fixings do you use between the door frame and the window frames or do you just silicone them?

doubleglazing fixings

I always use a good quality hardened wood screw or self driller/tapper to fix two frames together. TIP. put the screws through the window frame into the door frame reinforcing you get a stronger fix and the fixings cant be seen in the door frame ( unless you used too big a screw )
use silicone sealant as well as screws.
it will prevent the "reed" effect on windy days.
