Why aluminium
Strength is the whole point
Aluminium is structurally stronger than uPVC or timber, which means the frame can be much thinner and still hold a large, heavy sealed unit.
That difference shows up as daylight. In the same opening, an aluminium frame gives you a noticeably bigger area of glass than a plastic one — which is why it dominates on extensions, garden rooms and anywhere with a view worth framing.
It also holds a crisp, square edge that suits modern architecture, and it will span heights and widths that other materials struggle with. Gable and apex glazing is a job aluminium does particularly well.
- Slim sightlines and large panes
- Powder-coated finish that won’t need repainting
- Ideal for extensions, gables and garden rooms
- Matching windows, doors and bifolds in one finish


Under the surface
What’s inside an aluminium frame
The thermal break is the part that matters — without it, metal frames conduct cold straight into the room. Hover a number to see each part.
- Two-part frameSeparate outer and inner sections, so the metal facing the weather never touches the metal facing the room.
- Powder-coated finishBaked on rather than painted, which is why aluminium never needs repainting.
- Glazing gasketA continuous seal grips the glass on both faces within a very slim rebate.
- Sealed double glazed unitSlim frames mean more of the opening is glass, so the unit does more of the work.
- Warm-edge spacerSeparates the panes and holds the desiccant that keeps the cavity dry.
- Polyamide thermal breakAn insulating bar between the two halves. Without it the metal would carry the cold straight through.

A typical thermally broken aluminium profile. The exact section depends on the system specified for your windows.
Benefits
What aluminium gives you
More daylight
Narrower frames mean a bigger area of glass in exactly the same opening.
Very strong
Spans larger openings and carries heavier units without flexing.
Powder-coated colour
A baked-on finish in a wide range of colours, different inside and out if you want.
Thermally broken
An insulating barrier through the frame stops cold transferring inside.
Low maintenance
No repainting and no swelling — wash it down and it’s done.
Highly recyclable
Aluminium can be recycled repeatedly without losing its properties.
Styles
Styles available in aluminium
Aluminium suits contemporary casement and tilt & turn windows especially well, and comes into its own on large fixed panes.

Casement Windows
The most common style in the UK — hinged at the side or top, opening outwards on a lever. Simple, secure and suited to almost any property.
Explore casement windows
Flush Casement Windows
The sash sits level with the frame rather than proud of it, giving the clean lines of a traditional timber window with modern performance.

Sash Windows
Vertically sliding sashes that keep the proportions of a period home, with modern balances, draught seals and locking built in.

Tilt & Turn Windows
Two openings from one handle — tilt inwards for secure background ventilation, or turn fully for cleaning and escape.
