Picture this: you’ve just started working with a new customer who wants all their windows replaced – fantastic! Now you need to help them find the perfect windows for their home. In a world full of options this decision can be overwhelming, especially for your customer. So today, we are going to look at one of the top contenders, which offers superb durability and style: aluminium windows and doors.
The Benefits of Aluminium Windows and Doors
When it comes to choosing the best in contemporary design, aluminium stands out for its combination of style and performance. Let’s dive into why aluminium windows and doors might be the ideal fit for your next project.
Strong and Lightweight.
One of the best features of aluminium is its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio; it is more durable than PVC and timber, and significantly lighter as well. This makes installation easier and faster.
Aluminium frames are also highly resistant to warping, contracting, and expanding. Unlike PVC or timber alternatives, aluminium is heat resistant, reducing the strain on the frame and ensuring its longevity.
Clean and Contemporary Design.
If your customers are looking to achieve a sleek, and modern look for their home, aluminium frames are an ideal choice. Aluminium frames are available in a range of sizes and widths, including the ever-popular slimline varieties. These slim profiles allow for reduced sightlines, so that brand new bi-fold will provide an expansive view for your customer.
Matt black and anthracite grey remain on-trend and give a sophisticated, contemporary feel to any home. Additionally, bi-folds can increase the value and appeal of a property, as it creates a seamless connection between indoors and outdoor spaces.
Endless Colour Options.
With aluminium windows and doors, the colour options are virtually limitless. The frames can be powder-coated in any RAL colour. Whether they prefer bold colours or neutral tones, your customer will be able to find the perfect shade for their home.
Powder coating not only allows for creative home design, it also add an extra layer of durability, increasing the longevity of the frame. The frame will not suffer from fading, peeling, or discolouration over time, even in harsh winter conditions.
High Thermal Efficiency
As the weather is turning colder, energy efficiency is a top priority for homeowners, and aluminium frames have risen to the occasion. Advanced thermal break technology and insulated frames ensure that heat stays inside during the colder months. Not only will this keep the homeowner’s energy bills down this winter, but will also improve the overall comfort of their home. No cold draft will come from the new aluminium frames you have installed.
Top tip: Highlight the thermal benefits of aluminium to your customers to help them save money long-term on heating their home. Plus, our Bespoke team can supply high performance glazed windows, in a range of finishes such as tinted, blue, or clear glass.
Low Maintenance Frames
Aluminium frames are incredibly low maintenance, which a huge benefit for many customers. Unlike other window materials, aluminium won’t warp, crack, or discolour as the weather changes, ensuring the frames retain their shape and performance year after year.
Your customers will appreciate the minimal upkeep, as maintenance simply involves a quick wipe down with warm soapy water. Their new windows and doors will continue to look fantastic without regular painting or repairs.
Get Matching Trims.
We know how important it is to finish a job well. Therefore, we also offer aluminium trims in a range of widths and available in 5m lengths to ensure you can complete your installation with style. Matching aluminium trims will ensure that your new window or door installation will look its best year after year and will provide all the same low maintenance benefits as the frame itself.
Final Thoughts.
When it comes to choosing windows and doors, aluminium offers an excellent combination of style, durability and energy efficiency. For builders, the ease of installation, minimal maintenance, and wide range of design and configurations makes aluminium the smart choice for most projects. For homeowners, these windows and doors provide a modern and energy efficient solution that also enhances their property’s value and appeal.
