The bottom line here is that modern aluminium profiles are absolutely no worse insulated than wooden or, even more so, plastic ones. On the contrary, modern aluminium window profiles are distinguished by the best thermal performance and are often used in the construction of passive houses. As a result, the price of aluminium windows and doors has risen considerably in recent years, and we currently have to pay more for them than for wooden windows!

Advantages of Using Ornamental Iron

1. Top-Mounted Rollers These rollers are attached to the top of the window sash. They are less visible and allow for a clean appearance. Top-mounted rollers are often used in heavy-duty applications where added support is needed.

Another place that is tough to tell the quality of the hardware online is those decorative tips on top of the picket called finials.  Many places charge a hefty upgrade fee per panel to add finials to the fence panel.  The worst part is these are often cheap die-cast, aluminum or plastic that ship loose and you have to glue or press them on.  The difference between the fence panel material and finial material will be come apparent over time when the dissimilar metal coatings (or materials like plastic) fade at a different rate and really start to look like a cheap add-on.  Be sure to check what those finial tips are made from and how they are attached.  Our Stronghold Iron uses solid cast-iron finial tips that are welded directly to the picket like the image below.
