Colour & finish

Make the windows part of the architecture.

Casement windows are available across a broad range of aluminium finishes, allowing frame colour and texture to be specified around the brickwork, render, cladding and wider material palette of the property.

Aluminium window colour and finish options
More than standard grey

Specify the finish around the building.

The available aluminium finish range extends beyond the familiar anthracite palette, giving projects much more freedom to coordinate windows with surrounding materials.

01
RAL colours

Extensive powder-coated colour choices.

02
Metallic finishes

A more distinctive architectural surface.

03
Textured finishes

Add subtle surface character to the aluminium.

04
Wood effect

For projects requiring a warmer visual character.

05
Anodised finishes

A broad selection of anodised treatments.

Project fit

A practical aluminium window for a wide range of buildings.

Casement is designed for residential and commercial projects and can be used across both new construction and renovation. Opening type, finish and glazing can then be specified around the individual building.

01
Traditional homes

The hinged format sits naturally within brick-built and more traditional elevations.

02
Contemporary homes

Straight aluminium lines and the 65 mm sightline also work comfortably within modern extensions and new builds.

03
Renovation

The system is designed for both new construction and refurbishment projects.

04
Residential & commercial

Different sash and hardware configurations allow the system to adapt to a broad range of openings.

Maximum sash dimensions and weights depend on the selected configuration. Glazing, hardware, opening type and final finish should be confirmed around the individual project.
