Are you serious about your post?? Really? Never stood barefoot on dark terrace wood in summer? Dark materials of any kind expand and contract.

I definitely mean it seriously! Really now!

Of course, dark-colored surfaces heat up more, I have never denied that. But there are systems that compensate for that.

Or do you think any salesperson will say: "You can also choose the dark color, but then it's completely normal for it to crack?

A little more self-assessment please and refrain when one really knows nothing about a topic!

My windows are RAL 7016, nothing cracks there and I live in Germany, Planet Earth.

OK, take a deep breath and don’t get short of breath

Where do you live? Do you have a lot of sun?

I am absolutely chilled

Greetings from sunny Aachen, in the morning with sunrise all across the front and from noon until sunset on the back, it is a semi-detached house

Has the issue with the creaking windows settled by now? Unfortunately, we have the same problem and the window installer apparently has never heard of it. I would be interested to know if it has been resolved and if so, how?

Hello adnil
Somehow it got a bit better over time. It still cracks at two or three windows when it is freezing cold and the sun comes out, maybe you get used to everything over time

I talked to so many people about the topic and so many have the same problem

I had an expert here for another matter, he also knows about windows and told me that nothing can be done about it at all
The windows work and they are allowed and have to do so
Darkening the window surfaces as some write here is certainly useful but of course not feasible
How so
The house is completely renovated, I’m not putting exterior blinds on it anymore

Tell me what your problem is
