FLAIR ALUMINIUM WHY CHOOSE ALUMINIUM? Get the look you want When choosing your windows & doors for your home you will want to choose products that not only look great when installed but ones that will continue to look incredible for many years to come. Slim window frames are a must have when trying to maximise the amount of natural light that enters your home. When compared to the typical PVCu windows, the Flair Aluminium window frames are up-to 50% slimmer. This allows for the maximum amount of natural light to enter your home whilst giving an ultra slim appearance. Slimmer Frames These slimmer and stronger aluminium frames allow more natural light into your home as they increase the ratio of glass to frame. The clean joints and subtle lines offer an exceptional aesthetic finish. Typical PVCu Flair Aluminium
High Strength Aluminium, by its very nature, is a stronger material when compared to PVCu and unlike PVCu doesn t require any additional reinforcements. Aluminium offers superior strength which allows for larger arrangements which, when using timber or PVCu, are only possible using bulky profiles and couplers. Most PVCu bi-folding doors are limited when it comes to size allowing 750mm width per pane; Our Flair Aluminium Bi-folding Doors can accommodate panes up-to 1200mm wide allowing for uninterrupted panoramic views. FLAIR ALUMINIUM WHY CHOOSE ALUMINIUM? Security & Safety Features Flairs Aluminium windows and doors have many security features as standard to help defend your home against even the most determined intruder. All of the Flair windows and doors within the Aluminium range are put through stringent security checks. Our hinges, locks and handles are not only checked once, but time and time again. In addition to these security checks, the product testing shows that these products are tested on an ongoing basis to make sure standards do not slip over time. The Flair Aluminium range has been rigorously tested to ensure they keep the wind and rain out of your home. An important consideration for windows and doors in the UK. Each of our locks feature a combination of hooks and anti-lift bolts for enhanced security. Our windows have added protection to strengthen the hinges. High security hinge guards are available on all of our Flair Aluminium windows and doors. This means that in the unlikely event of an intruder attacking the hinges instead of the locks, these devices prevent the door or window from being pushed/pulled open. To help keep your family safe we offer restrictor hinges to prevent the risk of falls. These only allow the window to be opened partially which is important when fitting windows in a childs bedroom. These hinges have an override to allow for full opening in case of an emergency. Our enhanced multi-point security locking systems, which are designed, developed and tested in the UK, offer homeowners security and peace of mind.

FLAIR ALUMINIUM WHY CHOOSE ALUMINIUM? ACHIEVE OPTIMUM ENERGY EFFICIENCY Make your room an all year round living space The main goal is to let visible light in, whilst keeping solar heat out in the summer and radiant heat in during the winter.

Thermal Barrier Technology The Flair Aluminium window and door range is enhanced with polyamide thermal barrier technology. This enables the windows and doors to exceed the energy performance requirements of current UK Building Regulations The polyamide thermal barrier aids in reducing heat loss and enhancing the overall U Value of the product which allows Flairs Aluminium windows to achieve high energy ratings. Flairs Aluminium Range uses materials that have a very high resistance to heat transfer from the inner face of the frame to the external face of the frame. This gives greatly improved thermal efficiency and reduced condensation. Energy Ratings Low Iron Low iron glass is extra clear and will allow a greater degree of solar heat gain making homes feel warmer without turning the heating up. Low-E Glass Low-E glass is a clear glass with a microscopically thin coating of a metal oxide that allows light and heat from the sun to pass into the building while at the same time reflecting heat back in rather than letting it escape. Solar Control This anti sun glass reflects over 60% of the sun s solar energy which helps control the amount of heat entering the home through the glass. This is very advantageous for conservatories and large glazed areas such as sliding patio doors as it helps keep your home cooler in the summer. FLAIR ALUMINIUM WHY CHOOSE ALUMINIUM? Aluminium is infinitely recyclable, and when recycled uses just 5% of the total energy needed to produce frames from scratch.
