The decision on the choice of windows is one of the most crucial when building or renovating a house. Due to the availability of many systems with different characteristics, it is necessary to consider all the pros and cons. Are aluminium windows a good idea? In this article, we will look at a few aspects that can help you make your decision.

Aluminium windows for home – are they worth it?

The popularity of aluminium windows is growing every year, making it possible to develop the technology and bring more and better solutions to the market. However, many people building or renovating a house wonder whether aluminium windows are the right option. What are the advantages of aluminium over other materials and what are the main advantages of window systems made from it?

Durability of aluminium windows

Aluminium windows are very popular mainly because of their durability. Aluminium as a construction material does not corrode, which makes aluminium profiles resistant to moisture and weathering. This feature ensures that the windows maintain their aesthetic appearance for many years. In addition, the lightness of aluminium allows large-scale structures to be built, opening up the possibility of truly innovative designs.

Energy efficiency and thermal performance

A key consideration when choosing windows is their energy efficiency. Aluminium windows achieve very good air-tightness and a low heat transfer coefficient thanks to the use of warm profile and gasket systems. Aluprof products offer high thermal performance, protecting against heat loss, which translates into living comfort and lower heating costs.

The high thermal insulation performance of aluminium windows is also evidenced by the fact that they are increasingly gaining international certification from independent institutions, allowing them to be used in passive construction, which is renowned for its high energy efficiency standards.

Large aluminium window sizes

If you dream of a spacious home filled with natural light, aluminium windows could be the perfect solution. Thanks to the durable and static aluminium profiles, it is possible to install large glazings occupying the entire living room wall. Not only does this add a modern touch, but it also makes the house more welcoming to the occupants by providing better light in key areas.

Control of overexposure

In the case of large glazing, there may be concerns about excessive summer sunlight. However, there is no need to worry in advance. Aluprof also offers external roller blinds and façade blinds that effectively protect rooms from excessive light, including the most innovative SkyTwin system, i.e. a roller blind and a blind in one. Solutions of this type can lower the room temperature by up to several degrees, thus ensuring a comfortable indoor climate during the hot months.

Can be combined with other materials

A unique feature of aluminium windows is that they can be combined with windows of other materials within the building. In a single colour and style, we can have both aluminium windows in the living room, which is where guests are entertained, and cheaper PVC windows in rooms that serve only the household. The large number of frame colours makes it easy to match the architectural concept.

Security and trust

Security is a key issue for any home. Aluminium windows offer a range of security features in this respect, such as burglar-proof glass, hardware certified for burglary resistance and burglar-proof strikers. They also work perfectly with commercially available alarm systems to protect the home more effectively against intruders.

Is it worth investing in aluminium windows?

Choosing aluminium windows for your home is definitely a good idea if you want durability, energy efficiency and security. Thanks to state-of-the-art technologies, Aluprof offers innovative possibilities to meet the diverse expectations of its customers.

Remember that choosing window joinery is an investment for years to come, which is why it is worth betting on proven solutions that will provide you not only with an aesthetically pleasing appearance, but also with functionality and durability for years to come.
