Aluminium Double-Glazed Windows – A Maintenance Guide

Aluminium Double-Glazed Windows – A Maintenance Guide

Double glazing has been around since the 1980s with millions of Australian homes that have switched to aluminium frames as opposed to timber. These units are built to last, but eventually, issues will arise and in this short article, we present a maintenance guide for aluminium-framed double-glazed windows.

  • Hinges – Dynamic hinges that enable smooth operation will eventually become worn, the window might stick halfway; add some oil for a smoother experience. Cantilever hinges can be replaced with top-quality units that last for years. You should never put any weight on an open window, as this puts too much stress on the hinges and they are likely to buckle.
  • Neoprene seals – Even the best marine-grade rubber seals will eventually succumb to the harsh effects of the sun; window sealing is obviously critical and if you have noticed a few seals that are compromised, call a local window company. The seals are what keeps the glazed unit in place and they are easy to remove and replace; if you need your windows repaired, the technician would automatically inspect the condition of the rubber seals.
  • Glass condensation – The double-glazed units have a 12-15mm space and they are sealed hermetically to create a vacuum and should a seal be compromised, the inner pane of glass will condensate. Replacing a unit is straightforward, measurements are taken and the unit is quickly replaced by an engineer. Any double-glazing company can replace or repair a sealed unit, it takes less than an hour.
  • Keeping the frames clean – A damp cloth is all it takes to keep window and door frames looking like new, anodised aluminium does not fade or crack and the finish lasts forever. Wipe the interior and around the hinges, removing cobwebs and dust.
  • Locking issues – Older units (15-20 years) typically have lick issues; a few drops of oil on the key and then working the key around in the lock. If a lock does malfunction, call your local window form and they can repair or replace the defective unit.

Most window companies offer a 10-year warranty and would typically respond swiftly to repair requests; should you have any issues, Google can help you contact a local window specialist. Window maintenance is part and parcel of home care and it makes sense to upkeep your asset.
