1.9 kmas the crow flies from the showroom
In shortKozijnen Wassenaar supplies and fits uPVC (kunststof) and aluminium windows, lift-and-slide doors (hefschuifpuien) and front doors for the villas of Rijksdorp, the villa park on the dune edge of Wassenaar laid out from 1920. We measure up at your home free of charge and send a quote within 24 hours. Our own team installs, working from our showroom at Langstraat 52a.
Rijksdorp sits right against the dunes, level with De Wassenaarse Slag. There was a fief here as early as the fourteenth century, and in the 1660s Pieter Post designed a house and park here. New windows in Rijksdorp, Wassenaar therefore usually mean working on a detached villa built on the grounds of a historic estate.
The villa park came later. Once the nineteenth-century manor had been pulled down, plots went on sale from 1920 through C.F.A. Jonkers’ Rijksdorp development company. Architect Co Brandes drew the street plan and kept several main axes and avenues of the old garden. So the villas still stand among mature trees, some high on a dune.
Statistics Netherlands (CBS) counts 139 homes and 329 residents in the Rijksdorp-De Pan neighbourhood, which covers the villa park. Almost a quarter of the houses predate 1945, but over four in ten were built between 1945 and 1975. Rijksdorp was never fully built up before the war; afterwards, smaller villas filled the gaps.
Of the pre-war houses, those by architect Henk Wegerif stand out. His own home, De Pasch at Van Bergenlaan 7, built in 1925 on a high dune top, is strikingly modern: flat roof, steel windows, plenty of light. De Witte Hoogt on the Meijboomlaan is very similar, right down to the window details. The villa Samuel de Clercq built on the Meijboomlaan, by contrast, has tall chimneys like an English country house.
Those differences shape the choice. On a modernist villa the aim is slim profiles that follow the original lines; on a post-war villa, more glass and a new layout. Energy labels vary just as much: F and A are the most common in the neighbourhood.
If your villa was built with steel windows, like Wegerif’s De Pasch, you will want those thin lines back, with better glass. For that we use the Reynaers SlimLine 38 aluminium profile: very narrow, with a steel look, and suitable for listed buildings. Cleaner still is the minimalist Cortizo COR Vision.
A country-house style villa suits a casement pair without a fixed mullion (stolpraam), often with a transom light (bovenlicht) above. In uPVC you can choose cream white or a woodgrain foil such as Golden Oak or Notenhout, for the look of timber without painting. Allow about 16% extra for each coloured or woodgrain side.
A post-war villa often has a garden elevation that can do more. A lift-and-slide door in two, three or four sections, with a low or flush threshold, turns the back of the house into one wide opening. The more fixed glass in the unit, the lower the price per m².
A seventeenth-century street pattern, each avenue built in its own period.
Home to De Witte Hoogt, which Wegerif designed as a house and office for Jonkers. It was meant to become a tea garden and hotel, but never did. At number 1, Samuel de Clercq built a villa in the 1920s for Gerard del Court van Krimpen; until 2016 it housed the NIAS research institute.
The avenue of Wegerif’s own villa De Pasch at number 7 and of Hagestate at number 12, both from 1925. At number 6, J.H. Plantenga built one of the notable pre-war villas in 1921. Building continued after 2000.
Wegerif built Huize Renswoud at Van Bronckhorstlaan 34 in 1927, and F. Stam designed the villa at Van der Doeslaan 1 in 1928. Most houses here are post-war, though, many from the 1950s.
Post-war infill is easiest to see here. The Vleysmanlaan is lined mainly with detached houses from the 1950s and 1960s, the Bontiuslaan dates mostly from the 1960s and 1970s, and the Pieter Postlaan also has semi-detached homes.
At our showroom at Langstraat 52a we talk through your plans, profiles, colours and glass. Walk in from Tuesday to Saturday, 10:00-17:00. To be sure an adviser is free, call or WhatsApp +31 6 41 50 36 42 first. We speak Dutch, English and Polish.
Next, we measure up at your home free of charge and photograph the details that need to come back. Within 24 hours you have a quote listing frame, glass and installation separately. Our own team installs on a fixed date and takes the old frames away. Being in the same municipality, we stay close by for aftercare.
For Rijksdorp we use the same prices as in Wassenaar; the 1.9 kilometre distance does not change them. Below are a few indicative prices from the calculator.

Indicative prices from the price calculator, including ground-floor installation and 21% VAT. Each order has a one-off € 484 project charge for transport and removal of the old frames. The final price follows the free measurement.
Calculate your priceYes, with the Reynaers SlimLine 38 aluminium profile. Its very narrow sections have a steel look and suit listed buildings too. When we measure up, we photograph the existing divisions so the new windows follow them.
Our standard is HR++ glass, with a Ug value of about 1.1. Triple glazing (HR+++) gets to about 0.5, noticeably reduces noise and costs about € 90 per m² more. Warm-edge spacers mean less cold and condensation along the glass edge.
Production takes 4 to 6 weeks for uPVC and 6 to 10 weeks for aluminium, after which you get a fixed installation date. Most homes are done in one to a few days; for a villa with many windows we plan it with you in advance.
From five frames you get an 8% volume discount, and the project costs for transport and disposal are charged once per order. Our online price calculator gives an indicative price including installation; the final price follows measuring.
