Why replace steel window frames?

Steel window frames are beautiful, but they’re also costly, outdated, heavy and hard to repair. Aluminium windows capture the style of metal windows but with better quality-of-life improvements for the home.

Replacing traditional steel windows with new steel frames is expensive, susceptible to rust and less energy efficient than aluminium windows.

The ultimate steel metal window replacement, our aluminium range is lightweight, durable, energy-efficient and boasts superior viewing angles. Slimline aluminium frames are a thin and mighty solution for homes, available in double-glazed and secondary-glazed options.

Ideal for older properties in dire need of renovation, our windows can be fully customised and cut to fit any shape, size or aesthetic.

Replacing steel window frames FAQs

Traditional steel windows are less energy-efficient than their aluminium window counterparts, mainly due to steel’s high thermal conductivity and lack of double glazing in older windows.

For the best results, our team of in-house installation experts will remove your steel frame and replace it with a superior aluminium frame, both thinner and stronger than your old steel frame.

If your window cannot be removed due to planning permissions, we can install a secondary glazed aluminium window instead, granting the benefits of aluminium windows without affecting the current façade of your steel frames.

Aluminium windows can be replaced, repaired and recycled – but thanks to their increased durability – your windows can last up to 25 years longer than UPVC with little aluminium window maintenance.
