Aluminium Windows Cost

While most aluminium windows will cost slightly more than the cheaper options, they can also be more cost-effective in the long run. There is a great range of benefits that can make aluminium windows usually cost less in the long term, but the initial installation price is still important.

The price tends to vary depending on the size, the number of windows, the size of your property, the kind of glazing you want, and any other specifications you might have. Like all window products, the cost can rise and fall with every little change.

The type of glazing will also cause costs to change. For example, standard glass, Low E or other coatings can cause prices to vary.

Where are Aluminium Windows Installed?

There is a wide range of properties we can install aluminium windows including:

They are also installed in other places where things like thermal efficiency and low heating bills can make a bigger impact.

Aluminium Shopfronts

Weather performance windows are ideal for storefronts, providing extra security through five-lever security locks and tougher materials.

They are also harder to break than softwood windows or windows with timber frames and are very low-maintenance overall.

For more information on how to keep your store safe or more details on security testing, please complete our contact form today. 

Commercial Aluminium Shop Fronts

One of the most popular uses of aluminium windows is commercial aluminium shop fronts. We offer a range of designs for all commercial properties -ranging from large windows to doors and more.

We work with big commercial companies like large supermarket stores as well as smaller shops, salons and much more.

Advantages of Aluminium Windows

We have listed the top advantages below:

Advantages of Aluminium Windows

Thermally Broken Windows and Doors

When considering aluminium windows, it is important to make certain they are thermally broken windows

Modern aluminium windows feature thermal breaks to improve the overall energy efficiency of the property. This helps to keep the shop/home warm all year round and keeps energy bills down. 

Most aluminium windows will have thermal breaks, but our top tips include making sure of this. 

What is a Thermal Break?

A thermal break is an insulation within a frame of a window or door. 

The thermal break is placed between the inside and outside frames and is extremely important in the manufacturing stage. 

It is recommended to use materials such as fabric or polyamide plastic rather than materials like steel. The thermal conductivity of polyamide is 160x better than steel windows. 

We offer windows with high thermal efficiency to meet all your needs and specific requirements!

If you are interested in having aluminium doors or windows with thermal breaks or want to find out more about the thermal performance, please make sure to contact our team today.

Aluminium Doors

Aluminium doors are just as useful, providing all of the same benefits as aluminium window frames.

A multi-point locking system can help keep things secure and can provide year-round heating management in more extreme weather conditions.

Entrance Doors

Entrance doors can benefit from slim sightlines, meaning that the glass is not reflected back at the other person – letting them see more of your property as they approach to enter.

Aluminium windows and doors can also provide more energy-efficient glazing, maintaining a steady temperature to ensure that everybody is comfortable when they actually enter the property. This can matter a lot for stores and other customer-facing businesses.

Aluminium Bi-Fold Doors

Aluminium bifolding doors also benefit from slim sightlines, letting them function as aluminium windows when they are closed.

As before, insulation and security are better than with a budget option, making it easier to protect your property and minimize heat loss without losing the style that you want.

Types of Aluminium Windows

We can offer multiple types of aluminium windows, many of which provide unique benefits compared to others. All of these aluminium windows are available as needed, and some properties work best with a mixture of window styles.

Types of Aluminium Windows

Whether you are looking for turn windows, tilt windows or standard windows, we can help you. The opening options aren’t the only designs you can choose. We help with various specific requirements to create the perfect fit for your doors and windows.

If you wish to get in touch with us regarding replacement windows, whether you require double or triple glazing, please speak to a member of our team today. We offer replacement windows of various types to meet your requirements. 

Powder Coated

Powder coated aluminium windows and doors are standard window frames that have been coated with a polyester powder, giving them a nicer finish and far more colour options. This also reduces corrosion, providing better weather resistance and keeping the frame almost maintenance free.

This can be important for businesses or properties dealing with retail and trade customers on a regular basis, but it also suits homeowners who want a slightly nicer window frame.

For more information on powder coated aluminium products, please contact us now for a complete guide.

Slimline Aluminium Windows

Slimline aluminium windows provide smaller sightlines to increase visibility, making the window more suitable as an actual window.

This is mostly for aesthetic reasons, but it can still be important if you want an unobstructed view of an outdoor space.

Laminated Safety Glass

Laminated safety glass is incredibly tough, providing even more strength than adding more glass to a window would. This style of window offers great heat resistance, excellent cold resistance, and much higher physical endurance.

Laminated windows in the range of 6.4mm – 10.8mm can often prevent forced entry to a storefront, making it a great security option. The outstanding quality of our own aluminium windows and doors makes this a great choice for commercial businesses or well-prepared homeowners.

Fire Rated Pyro Glass

Fire-rated pyro glass protects against radiant heat, meaning that fires can’t damage people or property on the other side. This can be important for all kinds of safety and security reasons – and even if it seems like a niche option, it can make a huge difference under the right circumstances.

Tinted Glass Options

Tinted glass can block UV rays, protecting both your furniture and yourself from sunlight damage. It can also have some beneficial effects on a window’s overall maintenance requirements and can even boost how energy-efficient your home becomes once they are installed.

Double Glazed Units

We can offer a range of 24mm or 28mm double-glazed sealed units, which provide additional durability and strength on top of excellent insulation overall. Double glazing improves window strength, and using double glazing also improves energy efficiency.

Aluminium Casement Windows

Aluminium casement windows are attached to the frame by a hinge. Casement windows can swing open to allow fresh air and natural light in, making aluminium casement windows a great option for a more contemporary feel and style.

Other Additions

We can provide a wide choice of window styles and designs with different benefits and quirks, such as windows with polyamide thermal break for better thermal efficiency or windows using Georgian bars.

Georgian bars see some slight benefits in terms of insulation, but the style of the frame is the biggest difference.

Window Style

If you want a specific style of window, then get in touch with our experts. Style can make a big difference, and an older style may not necessarily work alongside a newer style. Certain window style options might also change the size and thickness of the entire window section.

On top of that, the general style of a window might alter how you use it. Not every window style can open, and some window style choices are not going to work well with curtains or blinds. Try to think ahead when choosing which window style works best for your home.

Manufacturers of Aluminium Windows

There are many manufacturers when it comes to aluminium windows, some more notable than others. The windows we have in stock can include brands like:

Aluminium Windows vs UPVC

While aluminium windows are more expensive than UPVC windows in terms of initial costs, the added robustness of aluminium makes it a much better option than other materials. If you need a window that you need to be sure you can rely on, aluminium is usually the better choice.

Aluminium Windows vs UPVC

UPVC windows have multiple major benefits – UPVC windows are cheaper initially and still fairly strong – but they still have their flaws. For example, UPVC windows can wear out much faster, requiring more frequent maintenance and replacements.

Most windows will have a variety of benefits, but aluminium doors and windows are our recommended product and a very popular choice. 

Find out more information on Aluminium vs UPVC windows here.

Aluminium vs Timber Windows

Aluminium windows are generally cheaper than timber windows. Even when they are not, they can easily break down if left unchecked and require a lot more maintenance.

The only real benefit of timber is the look – something that aluminium windows can mimic thanks to a range of colours and finishes, especially when powdered.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Aluminium Window Frequently Asked Questions

What are Composite Aluminium Windows?

Composite aluminium windows are standard windows with an outer shell of aluminium. This provides the benefits of aluminium windows while also retaining some of the characteristics of the original material, often timber.

These can be a niche option, but certain combinations can provide more energy efficiency and insulation.

Do I Need Planning Permission for New Windows?

You do not need planning permission to install new windows – as long as they are a similar style. Major changes that might make a window larger and easier to see through, or allow more light to shine out into another property’s window, might need permission.

Planning Permission for New Windows

Replacing existing windows does not need planning permission, regardless of the window colours or glass type. The only exceptions are traditional homes in conservation areas, which may have extra limits on glass options and frame colours.

How Long do Aluminium Windows Last?

Good aluminium windows can last over 45 years, and we always aim to choose aluminium windows that will withstand the challenges of your area’s common weather conditions.

How do you Clean Aluminium Windows?

Aluminium windows can be washed with warm water, mild detergent and or soap. This should not damage the RAL colour or glass, although specialist glass types may require more care.

The average size of an aluminium window is about 4 feet by 3 feet, with a thickness of about 6-10 milometers and a frame thickness of 30 – 60 milometers.

What Colours are Aluminium Windows Available In?

Aluminium Windows Colours

Most aluminium windows are available in 200+ RAL colours, including standard colours like:

In most recent years, there seems to be a higher demand for buying aluminium in grey RAL 7016.

We can meet whatever requirements you might have for colours, ensuring that you get window frame styles that suit your needs. Anthracite grey is often our default choice, but we can easily work with you to change those old windows into any other colour in the RAL system.
