Gathering your ambitious thoughts together in one place to choose the right aluminium windows for your home is no easy task. While aluminium is always a safe choice of material due to their sleek frames, slim sightlines, and impressive strength, their highly configurable nature leads to a great deal of customisation options that can often appear daunting.
Thankfully, we at Platinum Windows know aluminium a lot more than a large portion of other double glaziers, having over 40 years’ experience improving homes throughout Warwickshire. With this in mind, we’ve put together some top tips on how to choose the right aluminium windows for your home.
Your property’s age will determine the most appropriate style
The best place to start when considering how to improve your property, is to establish when it was built. British homes constructed during the late Victorian period for example would often sport original timber sliding sash windows, whereas those built in the early 21st century are a bit more flexible. If the intention is to swap out your windows for replacements that maintain the established character, appropriate window styles are suddenly narrowed down.
The good news is, regardless of property age and aesthetic, aluminium can be formed to replicate almost any existing style, while offering a suite of modern benefits and advantages. Period properties get to enjoy a sliding sash or flush sash style without fear of frequent heat leaks, rattles and draughts, while contemporary houses can enjoy such flexible designs as tilt & turn.
Achieve the correct look with the right colour tone and shade
A near-infinite number of colour shades can be powder-coated onto all our aluminium window’s frames, making it easy to evoke your desired aesthetic. This process is a form of heat bonding, resulting in a final finish that is long-lasting for many years to come. From unique shades like Dark Red, Ocean Blue, and Province Green to classic colours like Airforce Grey and Vulcan Black, every aluminium window can be made more personable.
Aluminium windows renowned for exceptional security
Irrespective of how you choose to have your aluminium windows configured, all should come integrated with multi-point locking for increased peace of mind. Unwanted visitors will be successfully warded off, and any established aesthetic style will be maintained thanks to clever security integration.
