KNOW YOUR ALUMINIUM

  • Durability and Longevity: Aluminium is a strong and durable material, making it resistant to rust, corrosion, and warping, even in harsh weather conditions. 

  • ​Weather Resistance: Aluminum windows are designed to withstand extreme temperatures and wind, making them a good choice for homes in areas with high winds or extreme weather.

  • ​Low Maintenance: Aluminium windows are built to last, requiring far less upkeep than windows built with traditional materials such as wood. They are also easier to clean, and paint jobs last far longer.

  • ​Aesthetic Appeal: Aluminium windows come in a variety of styles and colours, allowing for a customised look.

  • ​Energy Efficiency: Aluminium windows can ease your energy usage, especially when combined with double-paned glass and thermal break technology.

  • ​Security: Aluminium frames are strong and can be designed to provide enhanced security.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

LIFESPAN

Regular Cleaning:
Regularly clean aluminium windows with a soft cloth and mild detergent to prevent dirt and grime buildup. 

Check for Damage:
Periodically inspect windows for any signs of damage, such as cracks or loose seals, and address them promptly. 

Lubricate Moving Parts:
Lubricate hinges and other moving parts to ensure smooth operation. 

Avoid Harsh Chemicals:
Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the finish.
 
Condensation:
Aluminium is a metal that can get cold quickly, making it susceptible to condensation. Ensure adequate ventilation to prevent condensation. 
​​

Average Lifespan:
Properly maintained aluminium windows can last for 20-25 years or even longer, depending on the quality of the materials and the level of maintenance.

Factors Affecting Lifespan:
Factors such as climate, exposure to harsh weather conditions, and the quality of the installation can affect the lifespan of aluminum windows.
