Aluminium is durable, stylish, versatile and can present you with some serious advantages when used in your home. Couple this amazing material with double-glazed windows, and you've got a complete winner. Not only are aluminium apertures easy to get ahold of, but they're a stellar long-term investment for your home. We at Nicholas Aluminium have compiled a list of why you need to invest in double-glazed aluminium windows for your home. 

1. Aluminium windows are extremely durable

Presenting your home with aluminium apertures is on par with giving your house some pretty cool super powers. Aluminium windows do not rust, are resistant to corrosion and to top it off, they are fireproof. They are amazing, and the thing that we love about them the most, is that they can be used for seaside houses without you having to worry about any damage being made. Aluminium is extremely durable and structurally sound, making it a preferred choice among many people.

2. They're pretty much maintenance free

We're not joking. The amount of time and money you will save by opting for aluminium is nothing short of a miracle. Apart from not getting rusty, aluminium does not discolour. This makes it super easy to maintain. You can clean your windows using only a soft cloth and some soapy water. No need to treat them, protect them from the sun or apply any sort of preservative solutions to them. 

3. An extremely safe option for your home

Double glazed windows paired with aluminium frames are a double whammy in terms of safety. They can offer you high quality security as they are extremely difficult to break or damage. You can even add extra security features to your aluminium windows, such as locks. 

 

4. Aluminium is forever

Whoever said that diamonds are forever, has not had the opportunity to test out aluminium. Aluminium is resistant to the elements, corrosion, fire and other damages. Moreover, the real beauty of aluminium is that you do not have to present it with any special treatment like wood or metal. You can just let your windows do their own thing, and it will last for decades on end. 

5. They can help you save up on your bills

Aluminium can improve your home's insulation, especially when paired up with large double-glazed glasses. Due to the thermal break fittings in aluminium, you can rest assured that your home's thermal energy flow will stay inside, meaning that your home will be warm in the dreary winter months. 

6. They are eco-friendly

Aluminium can be used to infinity. It is a 100% recyclable material, making it one of the most environmentally-friendly materials around. It can be recycled over and over without losing any of its amazing properties. This also means that they leave a miniscule carbon footprint on the environment.
