benefits & features
What are the benefits of aluminium windows and doors?
Few double and triple glazing products compare to a well-designed aluminium window or door. Aluminium is strong, stylish and built to last longer than uPVC counterparts. In terms of styling, our products offer slim, modern aesthetics that can add value to your home.
ARE ALUMINIUM WINDOWS AND DOORS ENERGY-EFFICIENT?
Yes. Our aluminium windows and doors are built with thermal breaks and modern technology. This reduces heat transfer and makes them an excellent upgrade for your home.
WILL ALUMINIUM WINDOWS AND DOORS MAKE MY HOUSE COLD?
No! Aluminium is a highly conductive metal; however, with modern thermal break technology and our quality systems, you won’t notice a difference between this and any other material.
Are aluminium windows and doors secure?
Aluminium is both strong and lightweight, with an excellent strength-to-weight ratio that makes it ideal for home security. Stronger than uPVC, it is a reliable and cost-effective solution in the long run.
Are aluminium windows and doors eco-friendly?
Yes. Aluminium windows and doors have a low environmental impact compared to other materials. The production process of aluminium requires less energy and emits fewer greenhouse gases compared to other materials like uPVC or timber.
Do aluminium windows and doors reduce noise?
A triple glazed aluminium window or door is the best way to reduce noise. The majority of our systems are compatible with both double and triple glazing, request a free quote today!
How do aluminium windows compare to uPVC or wood?
Aluminium is far more durable than both uPVC and wood. It may be argued that uPVC is the cheaper material. However, aluminium is built to last longer, and it won’t warp, fade or yellow over time. The initial cost of aluminium windows and doors is also less expensive than wood, and a worthwhile investment for any home. The design possibilities with aluminium are nearly endless, with far more potential than either uPVC or timber.
CUSTOMISATION & DESIGN
Can I customise the design of my windows and doors?
There is no shortage of customisation with our massive range of colours, stylised finishes and handles. We have bespoke options to suit any taste, from architectural to classic design cues.
What colours and finishes are available?
Our aluminium doors are available in nine powder-coated colours, with the option for different finishes on either side of the door. Three additional premium anodised colours can also be requested for a high end finish. We have even more colours available on our sliding doors and internal screens.
Can aluminium windows and doors be made in non-standard sizes?

durability & maintenance
Are aluminium frames resistant to corrosion and rust?
Our aluminium frames are highly resistant to corrosion, rust and warping under rain or shine. Modern technology helps you get the best out of your windows and doors with little upkeep required.
How long do aluminium windows and doors last?
Our modern aluminium windows and doors can look and perform their best for up to 30-40 years with simple maintenance.
do aluminium windows and doors require a lot of maintenance?
