Not all window systems are designed to accommodate a bottom-hung design, which is hinged at the bottom with a catch at the top and simply tilts inwards – an inside-out top-hung casement. 

Nonetheless, typical aluminum profiles for windows and doors can last for more than 10 years.

It is worth mentioning that aluminium window joinery has not always been so popular. Until recently, it was regarded as cold joinery, and there was a lot of truth in that. Therefore, whilst aluminium was used in warehouses, offices and shops, it was not used in single-family homes. Nowadays, the situation is quite different – of course, aluminium does not feel as ‘warm’ as wood and, when the frame comes into contact with a warm hand, it will feel cooler than, say, pine. This is all due to the fact that aluminium does not have as much ability to absorb heat. However, we should add that in reality its temperature will often be the same as that of the aforementioned wood.

Furthermore, iron gates can be customised with various finishes such as powder coating, galvanising, or even antique patinas. These treatments not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also protect the iron from rust and corrosion, ensuring the gate maintains its beauty and functionality over time.
