One of the most rewarding aspects of what we do at Aluco is helping homeowners preserve and enhance the distinctive character of period properties. This magnificent Art-Deco detached home with steel look windows and doors in Wilsthire is transformed by our expertly crafted windows and doors, made by us and fitted by our approved and fully trained Aluco Installer, CBP.
Black steel look windows and doors in Wilsthire.
This elegant home was originally fitted with Crittall® windows. Our brief was simple. To retain the the classic steel appearance was paramount, yet the existing single-glazed units left the interior cold, draughty, and insecure. Our goal was to replicate that essential Art Deco aesthetic, while ensuring significant improvements in thermal efficiency, weather resistance, and security.
The solution was the Aluco Exterior Collection, designed from the outset, as the best possible aluminium steel-look windows and doors you can buy.
To achieve this, we recommended our Aluco Elite steel-look window and door collection. By selecting an authentic matt black finish (RAL 9005) for the powder coating, the replacement windows and doors echo the timeless charm of the original metal frames, complete with slim sightlines and carefully proportioned glazing bars. This professionally applied coating not only enriches the appearance with a subtle textured quality, but also shields the aluminium profiles from the elements, guaranteeing long-term durability.
Aluco Windows in Wilsthire. Premium Materials for Optimal Comfort
Modern performance lies at the heart of every Aluco Elite and Exterior Collection product. Internally, the advanced aluminium sections include the latest generation of thermal insulation. Externally, our engineered frames are complemented by toughened safety glass with a soft-coat low-emissivity layer, warm edge spacer bars, and an argon gas fill. This sophisticated glazing setup delivers low U-values, helping the homeowner stay warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and enjoy reduced energy bills year-round. Traditional handles inside further reinforce the Art Deco look, blending heritage style with modern engineering.
Doors and Windows for Every Need
The home required various steel-look solutions, from bay windows and casement styles to patio and French doors—some featuring side panels. Wherever possible, we maintained symmetry and clean lines to replicate the house’s existing geometry. CBP Ltd expertly installed our products to precise measurements, ensuring an optimal fit and seamless integration with the property’s white render and distinctive 1930s design elements. As a result, the home retains its vintage elegance while boasting enhanced performance and security.
Greater Security and Weather Protection
Upgrading to Aluco Elite has brought a noticeable difference to both the homeowner’s peace of mind and day-to-day comfort. With robust multipoint locking and extensive sealing across all openings, drafts are a thing of the past, and unwelcome intruders are deterred. These improvements perfectly illustrate how attention to detail, quality materials, and expert manufacturing converge to deliver steel-look windows and doors that excel on every level.
Preserving Heritage, Elevating Comfort
Today, the property stands as a tribute to Art Deco’s enduring appeal, combining original 1930s character with the latest innovations in glazing and design. From the outside, the matt black frames pay homage to the house’s architectural heritage; inside, the living spaces feel brighter and more secure.
By partnering with CBP Ltd, the homeowner has enjoyed a swift, hassle-free installation that delivers lasting benefits for many years to come. It is precisely this synergy of style and substance that makes Aluco Elite arguably the most authentic steel-look window and door collection in the UK.
