What is uPVC and its benefits?
Unplasticized PVC (uPVC) is a sturdy, weather-resistant plastic used for window and door frames. It’s a cost-effective timber alternative that stays strong and requires virtually no maintenance. Its multi-chamber profile provides very good thermal insulation and sound reduction.
What are System Aluminium windows and their advantages?
System-aluminium frames are made of extruded aluminium, allowing very slim, high-strength profiles. Aluminium windows are corrosion-resistant and long-lived; the metal is fully recyclable and fire-safe.
Who should install these windows?
Windows should be installed by trained professionals. Frames are anchored to the wall with proper fasteners and sealed with gaskets to ensure a weather-tight fit. Proper installation is critical for long-term performance.
How long does installation take?
Maintenance is minimal. Simply wipe frames and glass with mild detergent. uPVC frames never need painting or polishing; aluminium frames are usually powder-coated and need only cleaning. Periodically clear track drains and lubricate locks.
How do I clean and maintain uPVC/aluminium windows?
Maintenance is minimal. Simply wipe frames and glass with mild detergent. uPVC frames never need painting or polishing; aluminium frames are usually powder-coated and need only cleaning. Periodically clear track drains and lubricate locks.
What warranty is typically offered?
Warranty on uPVC Profiles are from 15 to 20 years and System Aluminium 15 to 25 years.
Can I choose colors or designs?
Yes. Frames can be custom-sized and come in various colors and finishes. uPVC frames offer white, woodgrain or solid-color options. Aluminium frames can be powder-coated in almost any RAL color. Decorative grille patterns and glass textures are also available.
How is pricing determined?
Modern windows use multi-point locking (5–7 locks) and reinforced frames. uPVC often contains internal steel inserts; aluminium is inherently strong. Laminated or toughened glass adds security. Well-installed units meet burglary-resistance standards.
Are the windows secure against break-ins?
Modern windows use multi-point locking (5–7 locks) and reinforced frames. uPVC often contains internal steel inserts; aluminium is inherently strong. Laminated or toughened glass adds security. Well-installed units meet burglary-resistance standards.
Are these windows weatherproof?
Yes. Quality frames have multiple seals and drainage, making them water- and air-tight. uPVC and coated aluminium resist moisture and won’t corrode. BIS is finalizing wind- and water-tightness tests, so certified products stand up to weather.
How long does delivery take?
No. High-quality uPVC contains UV stabilizers (titanium dioxide) so frames remain white and do not yellow. uPVC will not warp or crack under normal exposure. Properly coated aluminium frames similarly resist UV damage.
Will uPVC frames fade or warp in sunlight?
No. High-quality uPVC contains UV stabilizers (titanium dioxide) so frames remain white and do not yellow. uPVC will not warp or crack under normal exposure. Properly coated aluminium frames similarly resist UV damage.
