Learn English – What does the phrase “Have weight to ” mean

slang

I've watched a TV show about house renovation.
After they take down a old window and carry it away. A guy says something like:

It was a decent window. Jeepers have some weight to it

What does this phrase mean in this context?

Best Answer

To have some substance to it.

In this context, if it is a wood window, better quality timbers will be more dense, therefore heavier. Even a pine window will come in a range of densities with heavier woods seen as better for the purpose.
