There are many reasons that you may decide to replace your windows. New windows give you the opportunity to select a product that better suits your personal lifestyle or your business’ needs. This may include selecting one that allows for more natural light and ventilation or, an overall more durable product. While the commercial and residential window market is vast, it’s no surprise that we believe that aluminium windows will make the best replacement in your home or business.
Replacement windows are the perfect opportunity for property owners to customise and select windows that satisfy needs that have emerged over the years. As businesses grow and homeowners evolve, they come to the realisation that different features are needed in their windows which is why the selection of replacement windows is so important. While the aesthetic aspect of windows is well-known, its functional features are not often thought of when making the decision on window replacements.
Why do you need an aluminium window replacement?
We’ve identified 4 signs that point to your residential or commercial property needing an aluminium window replacement. Use this as a guide for determining whether it’s time to upgrade your property’s windows.
- Improvement of security
Aluminium windows are one of the most durable materials, making it an excellent choice for properties in search of improved safety and security. Aluminium frames’ durability comes from its weather and corrosion resistance. This makes it especially suitable for exterior windows, as this is where most natural elements (moisture, heat and rain) will affect the window frame.
The durability of aluminium frames is important for safety and security because it allows you to rely on the strength of the window for years without having to worry about its structure unknowingly deteriorating and affecting your window’s functionality, aesthetic and ability to keep your property secure.
- Increased comfort
As time passes in a property, owners, residents and employees realise what is needed to improve its comfort. A common need is for a quieter and better ventilated working space. Aluminium windows in almost any configuration can provide both natural ventilation and light, making residents and employees more comfortable.
- Investment in energy efficiency
Many businesses and homes are turning towards becoming more sustainable and cost-efficient. If you find that your property consistently incurs high energy bills and wastes electricity, then you may want to consider aluminium window replacements, particularly bifold, sliding or stacking windows. These configurations allow for ample natural light (even when closed) and when opened, fill your space with natural ventilation. This reduces the need for air conditioning systems and artificial lighting (during the day), which ultimately reduces your property’s energy use and bills.
- Upgraded aesthetic
If you find that your property needs a facelift and that your current windows are showing signs of wear and tear, then this is a sign to upgrade to aluminium windows. Aluminium windows don’t just offer a sleek and clean aesthetic, but they are also incredibly durable which means that they will not wear and tear or suffer in its appearance as quickly as other materials.
