Aluminium fenestration is a term used to refer to aluminium frames such as windows, doors, shopfronts and other openings in buildings such as curtain walling. Aluminium is a light weight, strong and durable metal which makes it the ideal material for such fenestrations. It is used extensively within the construction industry, both for residential and commercial properties especially when larger glass aperture are designed.
aluminium double glazing can be manufactured in a range of designs and styles to suit different building requirements and architectural aesthetics. They are available in a variety of RAL or BS colours, as aluminium can be polyester powder coated, and with a wide range of finishes and textures to complement the interior and exterior of any building from listed building to up-to-date modern designs.
The benefits of aluminium fenestrations include their resistance to corrosion, weathering, and vandalism, resulting in a long lifespan, low maintenance and an attractive appearance due to the slim sightlines. They also offer superior thermal insulation, sound attenuation and security, enhancing the comfort and safety of the occupants, in addition, aluminium fenestrations are environmentally friendly, as they can be recycled indefinitely without losing any of their properties or quality, making them a greener sustainable option for buildings.Overall, aluminium fenestrations are an excellent choice for modern buildings, offering durability, aesthetics, low maintenance, sustainability and a range of features and benefits that make them a popular fenestration option.Aluminium is also the ideal, cost-effective alternative for heritage style steel windows with its slim line features, it’s the perfect solution to allow old/listed building to keep their timeless features but with a modern energy efficient framing.
All aluminium double glazing are fitted with energy efficient glass units as standard, also known as double glazing, which are constructed with two panes of glass, one being soft coat Low E energy saving glass, toughened or laminated safety glass where requires and separated by an air or gas-filled (argon) cavity. This design creates a thermal barrier or insulation that helps to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency.
Double glazed windows are more energy efficient than single glazed windows, as they can help to trap warm air inside during the winter months and keep it out in the summer. They can also help to reduce noise levels, as the thicker glass and insulating air gap create a barrier that helps to muffle outside noise.
Triple glazing refers to the use of three glass panes instead of two in a glass unit, with an insulating gas filled between each pane. This technology is more advanced than double glazing and boasts additional energy efficiency and sound reduction benefits.
Triple glazing is designed to provide enhanced thermal insulation, and it has several benefits over the traditional double glazing. The additional glass pane and insulating gas layer give triple glazing a higher energy efficiency factor, which helps reduce energy usage and saves money on heating and cooling costs.
The insulation benefits of triple glazing also offer better soundproofing, keeping out unwanted noise from the exterior environment and making the inside of the building quieter and more comfortable. This feature is particularly beneficial if you live in a high-traffic area or busy city centre.
