Wrought iron is generally longer-lasting than cast iron. As we said, cast iron is harder but it’s also more brittle. The extra carbon in its molecular structure compared with wrought iron results in internal stress points that are more likely to fracture under extreme stress rather than bend. There are advantages and disadvantages to this: cast iron is more likely to retain its exact shape without undergoing any warping or bending.

Ease of use is another important aspect of window and door fittings. The right fittings should not only look good but also function smoothly. For windows, options like casement, sliding, or tilt-and-turn mechanisms can provide different levels of convenience for accessing ventilation. For doors, choices like sliding patio doors or French doors can enhance accessibility and flow between indoor and outdoor spaces. Homeowners should consider how often the windows and doors will be used and select fittings that offer both ease of operation and aesthetic appeal.
