Benefits of Aluminium Windows and Doors

In the past few years aluminium doors and windows have become very popular among homeowners in Kenya.

The reason is obvious. These products offer numerous benefits and very few disadvantages compared to their wood counterparts.

These benefits include:

1.) Strength – Aluminium doors and windows are strong and do not get destroyed easily. Thanks to the astounding strength of aluminium, manufacturers can create many designs out of it – exceeding the expectations of homeowners who have unusual tastes for designs.

2.) Durability – The doors and windows are not only strong, but they are long-lasting since they are not prone to temperature variations, moisture, warp and crack. This is a big advantage over wooden windows.

3.) Less expensive – Aluminium, being the third most common element on earth, is cheap as a raw material. Windows made of aluminium cost less than glass windows and are easy and cheaper to maintain.

4.) Lightweight – Though incredibly strong, aluminium is very light and aluminium window frames are therefore lighter than wooden or steel window casings.
