Slimline aluminium casement window.
Suitable for both domestic and large-scale residential projects and is complemented by the Ali FOLD door range. The stepped face option also means that it is a modern, energy efficient replacement for heritage style steel windows in both commercial and residential buildings.
A slimline aluminium window with a polyamide thermal break giving high thermal efficiency. Available with many design options, Ali VU’s strong, slim frame has a sightline of just 38 mm (fixed light) or 66 mm (standard vent) and is available in sizes up to 1400 x 1400 mm to give the widest views and maximize daylight. Tested to PAS 24, BS 6375-1, BS 6375-2 and BS 6375-3.
Constructed using mitred corners, joined with crimped cleats; alignment chevrons assist in clean, accurate mitres. Integral transoms and mullions are scribed around the outer frames and fixed with either screwports or shearblocks. A proprietary sealant is used on all metal joints. Opening window frames are designed to be inserted directly into the outer frames using friction stays.
