Shopping For Aluminium Doors And Aluminium Windows In The South West

Shopping For Aluminium Doors And Aluminium Windows In The South West


by Ania Stan


When buying aluminium windows or aluminium doors for your home, there are a few important factors to consider. However, the specifications can be confusing.

Attractive, Practical Designs

Manufacture and design of aluminium windows and aluminium doors has come a long way. You can get sophisticated, safe and durable designs that are still stylish and attractive.

A traditional looking window or door with all the benefits of contemporary design features is widely available now. It is possible to get wood grain finishes and many different colours for your windows or doors to get a traditional or contemporary look. You can then ensure that whatever you choose fits in with the character or style of your home.

Aluminium Windows - Features

Most importantly, your aluminium windows should be safe and of a satisfactory standard. Find out if the windows comply with British Standards of manufacture and bear the Kitemark. Security is equally important. High security double glazing should be standard. Shoot bolts are the best locking system for aluminium windows. Internally beaded casements offer greater security than externally beaded, as it means the glass can only be removed from the inside.

All aluminium windows should have an energy rating which will be a guide to its thermal efficiency. There are features that can improve this, such as polyamide thermal barriers and weather stripping. With a high energy efficiency rating you can enjoy a warmer and quieter house, plus reduced energy bills.

Aluminium Doors - Features

As with aluminium windows, aluminium doors need to comply with British Standards and have the Kitemark. High security double glazing is also standard, but with aluminium doors, the thermal efficiency is of greater relevance. With patio and conservatory doors particularly, their function is to let more light and air in, but with the size of doors and amount of glass used, you want to make sure it keeps the elements out and the warmth in. Weather stripping and thermal barriers are again the features to look for.

For aluminium doors, the best locking systems are multi-point locking systems. The choice you make can affect how much you pay for home insurance so it's important to choose the best you can afford. Internal beading is also used in aluminium doors for added security.

Anti-finger trap mechanisms are worth considering if buying sliding doors, particularly if you have children.

Selecting The Right Company For You

Having awareness of the different features available and their benefits should help you when choosing the best company to supply and install your aluminium windows and doors. Ideally, the company you choose should also manufacture the product as then you get a more bespoke design service. Experienced and knowledgeable staff should provide enough advice so that you are 100% sure of what you are getting before purchase.
