Why should I choose aluminium?
There are more than enough choices in materials to use for windows and doors. But why does aluminium excel? First of all, aluminium is a metal with excellent mechanical properties, which revolutionised many technological sectors. Although much lighter than other metals, it has very high mechanical strength levels and that is why it is so broadly used in aeronautics, a very demanding field. Also, it is very resistant to many forms of corrosion and has almost zero maintenance cost.
Μechanical properties
Αluminium frames are the solution that will provide you with very robust doors and windows and, therefore, increased security and long-term durability. In case of high temperature fluctuations, they do not warp in the long term, a fact that is very important in regions with a lot of sunshine and high temperatures during the summer. This is why they offer highly exact dimensions that remain unaltered and are not prone to expansions and contractions.
Thus, maximum tightness against air and water and a perfect fit between the frame and the window’s sash is achieved. Also, aluminium frames’ robustness allows for the creation of large spans for maximum natural light, with no danger of frames bending or twisting, as is often the case with other, weaker materials. Even in very thin profiles, a double sash aluminium door can bear more than 1000 kilos! Lastly, in case of fire, aluminium windows & doors don’t help it spread and in fact, they limit it.
Design
The space in which we live is part of ourselves, as we spend on average more than 50% of our time inside our homes. If you think about it, a home’s frames are a basic part of its overall functionality and aesthetic value, shaping its interior and exteriors look. Aluminium door and window frames offer countless design choices, both as regards typologies and dimensions (e.g. Minimal design with very thin profiles, corner typologies, multiple door constructions), as well as surface treatment, with an enormous colour and texture palette available to meet every need and desire.
No other material can offer so much design flexibility without limitations. Lastly, aluminium systems are not limited to windows and doors; they allow for the creation of a number of architectural constructions. This means that if you visit an aluminium manufacturer, you can get an overall quote with integrated solutions that will upgrade your home in case there is a corresponding need.

Sound Insulation
Sound insulation is also one of the main characteristics that should be taken into account when choosing door and window frames, especially for homes located in urban environments with high noise pollution. To that end, there are checks and certifications regarding sound insulation levels provided by windows and doors. The high quality elastic sealant materials used by ALUMIL internally and on the perimeters of our systems, as well as the hermetic sealing of all its windows and doors when locked with no gaps left for sound to pass through, offer very high levels of sound insulation.
Of course, similarly to thermal insulation, the most important factor in increasing sound insulation are the glass panels that will be installed into the windows or doors. For example, triple glazed windows offer incomparably higher sound insulation in relation to windows with a simple glass panel.
