Maaldrift is a hamlet on the north-eastern edge of Wassenaar, tucked between the A44 motorway and the Wassenaarsche Wetering waterway. It has only a handful of streets, but homes here tend to be generous: most are detached or semi-detached, and roughly half were built before 1945. Windows in Maaldrift are therefore almost always a made-to-measure job.
The land has an unusual past. Around 1900 part of Maaldrift was a military exercise ground, in 1916 it became an emergency airfield, and around 1920 KLM flew from here. A tennis complex followed on the same site, with the old hangar as an indoor court. And from 1923 to 1961 the Yellow Tram (Gele Tram) between The Hague and Leiden ran straight through the hamlet.
Statistics Netherlands (CBS) counts just over sixty homes in the Maaldrift neighbourhood, mostly detached, then semi-detached, with hardly any flats. The largest group dates from 1925 to 1950; on the road Maaldrift itself, construction years run from the mid-nineteenth century to after 2000.
A mix like that calls for a careful look. On a 1930s house we follow the original layout: fixed and opening sections, any transom light (bovenlicht), the width of the frame members. On homes from the 1970s onwards, it is more often about daylight and a wider opening to the garden.
At Maaldrift 9 stands a longhouse farm with barn, designated a municipal monument in 2014. If you live in a building like that, or your home lies in one of Wassenaar’s protected conservation areas, rules apply to profiles, glazing bars and colour. We check what the municipality requires for your address.
A lift-and-slide door lifts the sash with a turn of the handle and glides it aside almost silently, with a low or flush threshold. Two, three or four sections, uPVC or aluminium; the more fixed glass, the lower the price per m². A lighter option is the tilt-and-slide door (schuif-kiepdeur).
If you live near the motorway, consider triple glazing (HR+++) with warm-edge spacers instead of standard HR++. It insulates better and noticeably reduces noise, for about € 90 per m² more, and you can choose it per elevation.
uPVC frames in a woodgrain foil, Golden Oak or Notenhout, give a 1920s or 1930s home a timber look without painting. For the thin lines of a steel window, we use the Reynaers SlimLine 38 aluminium profile, which also suits listed buildings.
A detached house has four elevations that can be reached from outside. So think about RC2 security hardware and lockable handles on the ground floor, and a front door with SKG-certified hardware and multi-point locking.
Small but varied: from old tram workers’ houses to scattered homes in the polder.
The road that gives the hamlet its name, lined mostly with detached and semi-detached houses. Near number 5 there is still a shell-shaped pond from the vanished country estate Laan en Duin, and number 7 is a 1931 summer cottage that belonged to the tennis courts.
This is where the hangar and facilities of the former airfield stood, roughly where the De Oude Eik tennis courts are now. Along the Oude Trambaan, concrete posts still mark the boundary of the defence site.
In and around Schoutstraat are the houses built in 1923 for staff of the HTM tram company, at the same time as the tram depot. The depot was demolished in 1974, and the Adelbert College school now stands on the site.
Part of the road Maaldrift belongs to this neighbourhood of scattered houses in the polder. Along the Rijksstraatweg, between the Papeweg and Maaldrift, farms stand where the old beach ridge meets the lower land; on the east side almost all survive.
Our showroom at Langstraat 52a is 2.6 km from Maaldrift as the crow flies. You can walk in from Tuesday to Saturday, 10:00-17:00, without an appointment. To be sure an adviser is free, call or WhatsApp +31 6 41 50 36 42 first. We speak Dutch, English and Polish.
After that we measure up at your home free of charge. Within 24 hours you have a quote listing frame, glass and installation separately. uPVC takes 4 to 6 weeks to make, aluminium 6 to 10 weeks. Our own team installs on a fixed date and takes the old frames away. Because we are just around the corner, aftercare stays close, and if your glazing qualifies we help with the ISDE subsidy application.

Calculate your priceFor a municipal monument, such as the farmhouse at Maaldrift 9, rules apply to profiles, glazing bars and colour. We find out what the municipality of Wassenaar requires for your address before you choose anything.
Triple glazing reduces noise noticeably better than standard HR++ and insulates better too. It costs about € 90 per m² more, and you can choose it per window, so only where the noise comes in.
We check that during the free measuring visit. If a lift-and-slide door is not the right fit, French doors with side lights or a tilt-and-slide door are good alternatives.
Installation is charged per running metre of frame, about € 105 excluding VAT. On the first floor 15% is added, with scaffolding 30%. From five frames you get an 8% volume discount. The final price follows after measuring up.
