Why Choose Aluminium Windows and Doors for Your London Home
When it comes to upgrading or installing new windows and doors in your London home, aluminium stands out as one of the best choices on the market. Sleek, strong, and built to last, aluminium frames offer a perfect blend of modern aesthetics, energy efficiency, and low maintenance.
At FOX HOME BUILDERS & DOUBLE GLAZING, we specialise in fabricating and installing high-quality aluminium windows and doors for properties across London. Here’s why aluminium could be the smart investment for your next home improvement project.
🔍 Aluminium vs. Other Materials: How It Stacks Up
⚪ Aluminium vs. uPVC
- Aluminium: Sleeker, slimmer frames; stronger and more durable
- uPVC: More affordable but bulkier and less stylish over time
- Verdict: Choose aluminium for long-term performance and modern design appeal
⚪ Aluminium vs. Timber
- Aluminium: Low maintenance, weather-resistant, and won’t warp
- Timber: Natural look but needs regular painting or sealing
- Verdict: Aluminium offers a contemporary alternative with much less upkeep
⚪ Aluminium vs. Composite
- Aluminium: Fully recyclable, corrosion-resistant, and clean-looking
- Composite: Strong and durable but usually more expensive
- Verdict: Aluminium delivers high-end benefits without the premium price tag
đź’Ş Built for London: Why Aluminium Is a Durable Choice
London weather can be unpredictable—rain, wind, and urban pollution can take a toll on your home’s exterior. Aluminium is a corrosion-resistant material that can handle harsh conditions without cracking, fading, or rusting.
Key durability benefits:
- Resistant to moisture and temperature changes
- Ideal for high-traffic and high-rise environments
- Powder-coated finishes last for decades
- Minimal maintenance—just a quick clean every now and then
🎨 Clean, Modern & Versatile: The Aesthetic Edge
Aluminium frames are loved for their slim profiles and ability to maximise natural light. They suit every style, from modern flats to traditional townhouses.
You can customise:
- Frame colours (from classic black and white to bold colours)
- Glazing options (double, triple, tinted, etc.)
- Opening styles (casement, sliding, bifold, tilt & turn)
Whether you’re after a sleek glass wall for your extension or a bold front door, aluminium can deliver.
🌍 Energy Efficiency & Eco Credentials
Modern aluminium windows and doors come with thermal breaks that dramatically improve insulation—keeping your London home warm in winter and cool in summer.
Plus, aluminium is:
- 100% recyclable with a low carbon footprint
- Energy-saving when paired with advanced glazing
- Sustainable and long-lasting, reducing replacement needs
