The Installer’s Guide to Steel Look: Quality, Security, and PAS 24 Compliance
Recently, there has been a surging popularity of the industrial, steel look style in the home improvement industry. Homeowners and developers are demanding high end aesthetics without sacrificing modern performance, especially security and thermal efficiency features.
Here at Reading Trade Windows, our Aluco and Origin steel look ranges are the solution. They deliver the desired aesthetic while providing guaranteed PAS24 compliance and high grade quality, whilst also ensuring a smooth installation and zero call backs.
Security & Certification – Beyond the Aesthetics
Our steel look collections are PAS24 and Secured by Design compliant showcasing their true quality through these official standards.
PAS24 is a guaranteed minimum level of security performance which is a crucial selling point for your end client and is a required standard for many new build or high spec renovation projects.
Secured by Design translates to a lower insurance premium for homeowners and is an accredited police initiative to keep homes safe.
Not only are our Aluco and Origin steel look ranges compliant with industry standard specifications, their inherent strength of their aluminium frames and multi-point locking systems also ensure a maximum security without bulky profiles.
Quality & Performance – Selling the Upgrade
It is a common misconception that steel look means poor insulation. This is not the case with our Aluco and Origin ranges.
Their aluminium systems achieve a superior low U-value despite their slim, ‘Crittall’ style frames. This is a key benefit in an era of high energy costs.
The aluminium material is also highly resistant to weathering and corrosion, translating to an easy, maintenance-free installation.
Origin offers a 20 year guarantee which reduces your installation risk too. Not only that, but our steel look windows are incredibly flexible when it comes to design. They are available in a wide range of RAL colours and various bespoke configurations too including windows, internal doors and screens which are great for meeting diverse project requirements.
