Aluminium Windows and Doors: A Game Changer for Modern Homes

Aluminium windows and doors have grown massively in popularity over the last few years – adding a touch of contemporary style to homes, whilst providing energy efficiency and durability.

Aluminium windows and doors offer unique benefits that make them a popular choice for many homeowners – some things that aren’t always available with uPVC options. At Window Elegance Yorkshire we’re here to highlight the key features and benefits of choosing aluminium for your windows and doors, helping you make an informed decision for your home.

Energy Efficiency

Modern aluminium products are fitted with a thermal break – a thermal break is a low thermal conductive polyurethane or polyamide material within an aluminium window/door frame. This minimises heat loss and separates the frame into an interior and exterior section, ensuring as much heat as possible stays inside the interior. A reduction in heat loss can result in lower energy bills, less draughts and a more comfortable home.

Lifespan, Durability and Strength

Aluminium is extremely durable, made of a lightweight material that doesn’t warp, crack or corrode due to weather conditions like other materials do. It is around three times lighter than steel, despite this it is still regarded as a strong and tough material.

Aluminium is durable due to its lifespan; it is uncommon in the fact that it can be recycled indefinitely. It is a permanent material; its core properties don’t change during the recycling process which means it can be used time and time again. Aluminium’s stellar durability means that Aluminium windows & doors are less likely to need repairs or replacements – and that they continue to perform in harsh weather conditions.

Safety and Security

Aluminium windows and doors are strong, with the option to also be fitted with multi-point locking systems for enhanced security.

Aluminium is effectively tamper-resistant – it harbours a melting point of 660.5°C, and Aluminium windows are highly regarded for their superior security against external threats.

Elegant and up-to-date aesthetics

Aluminium windows and doors can bring your space into the 21^st century, for a more modern-looking home with sleek greys, blacks and whites on the interior, they can be the perfect finishing touch to your home décor.

The slim aesthetic of Aluminium makes for less sightlines and a more open feel, for example, an Aluminium patio door opens your property up completely and gives you a full view of your outside space.

They come available in a variety of colours and finishes, powder-coated with your choice of gorgeous colour or colours to match your property.
