Showroom in Airport West, Melbourne. ## Key facts - All systems are thermally broken aluminium, double glazed as standard, and custom made to each home. - Aluminium frames last 40 years or more and need only periodic cleaning. - Thermally broken double glazing reaches U-values of 1.6 to 2.4 W/m2K, against around 6.0 for old single glazing. - Finished in the full Dulux powder coat colour range, with custom colour matching available. - Typical manufacturing lead time is 9 to 12 weeks. Installation is usually a few days. - 10 year warranty. Experience since 2006, more than a thousand homes across Australia. - In Australia, uPVC generally costs more than aluminium and is not the budget option it is sometimes assumed to be. Aluminium offers slimmer sightlines and a longer life; timber suits heritage homes but needs regular upkeep. ## Services - [Window replacement Melbourne](https://windowsociety.com.au/window-replacement-melbourne): whole-home window and door replacement for period and modern homes.
