Almere, the city in the province in which the Dutch once again fought and conquered the battle with the water. A city that can confidently be called a melting pot, with a beautiful and unique structure because this is a city that has been stamped out of the ground with straight patterns and no natural growth pattern that can lead to (characteristic) chaos. At the same time Almere has grown into a tourist attraction for Dutch people and people from abroad, who love to explore the surrounding area.
What about the Oostvaardersplassen, the Kunstlinie Almere-Flevoland, the train station Almere-Centre or walks through Almere and the surrounding area including a guide who will tell you about the incredible history of the very young city that was actually built on the sea? You usually explore Almere on foot; there are plenty of parking facilities in and around Almere where you can park your car. Did you know that we as your automotive glass specialist can replace your car window in Almere in all of these parking lots? Before we look into that, let's dive into one of the youngest cities in the Netherlands together.
The history of the Netherlands goes back thousands of years. But not for Almere, unless you count life under water. The first houses were only completed in 1976, making Almere the second city in the province of Flevoland, which only had to put up with Lelystad. That didn't last long, by the way. At the moment, Almere is many times larger than Lelystad in terms of population (more than 220,000 residents) and the end of the growth is nowhere in sight.
Almere has been conceived as an overflow city for Amsterdam. This would solve the housing shortage in Amsterdam; with good connections between Almere and Amsterdam, Almere could become an excellent place to live for commuters. Meanwhile, the infrastructure between Almere and Amsterdam is overloaded and new connections have to be built.
Almere is mainly known for Almere Stad, which has one of the largest shopping centers in the Netherlands. In addition, Almere Buiten and Almere Haven are a place where shopaholics love to come, also because there are particularly regular markets here and there are plenty of nice sights to see, such as the Nieuwe Bibliotheek (winner of the architecture award in 2010), the Citadel, the Almere Castle on the A6 and plenty of other nice buildings to look at, especially thanks to the very young and therefore fresh architecture.
If you are going to Almere by car, you can use the parking facilities in the city, or park along the street in the outlying area. Another, often better, option is to park your car in one of the many parking garages, such as the Brinkgarage, the Sluisgarage and the Cuba garage. You can find all parking rates on the parking website for Almere; here you can also apply for a parking pass. Practical when you want to use the parking garages in the city more often.
If you drive to Almere on the A6, N702 or A27 and you get a small stone on the windscreen, this can cause a chip or a crack. This does not always mean that you will need to replace your car window in Almere. In fact, you can almost always drive on with a chip in your windscreen. Only a chip with a diameter of at least 20 millimetres or a branched crack in the driver's field of vision are grounds for rejection by the MOT. If you can still see enough to drive safely, you can drive home or to a parking lot.
But has your car been broken into while you were admiring the Oostvaardersdijk, the Citadel or Almere Haven? Then replacing the car window in Almere is usually necessary. Burglars smash the side window in order to get to your valuables. Since the side window is made of tempered glass, it shatters into thousands of pieces when smashed. This is also the reason why burglars do not choose the windscreen. This is made of laminated glass, which does not shatter when broken; there is a layer of PVB film between the two layers of glass, keeping them together.
Do you have car window damage and does the window need to be replaced in Almere or in the Almere area? Then it's good to know that car windows can be much cheaper than you think. The car windows at your dealer have a brand logo that does nothing for the car window itself. The logo does provide exclusivity which you then pay for. If you choose after market car windows, the quality of the automotive glass is identical to the branded windows, but the price is many times lower.
