What Are Aluminum Windows?
Aluminum windows use high-strength metal frames engineered for exceptional rigidity and minimal frame thickness. The result is a clean, modern look with more visible glass and wider views.
Modern aluminum windows include a thermal break—an insulated barrier inside the frame that dramatically improves energy efficiency compared to older aluminum designs.
They’re ideal for homeowners seeking a premium architectural style with long-term durability.
