Kaiapoi Aluminium has a complete range of aluminium windows, ranging from contemporary modern designs to traditional aspects that will help you create your own style and enhance your home.
Awning Windows
Awning windows can be used in most positions and are ideal for New Zealand's changeable weather - they provide excellent ventilation.
- In-built strength, don't twist or flex when opened.
- Fanlights to provide ventilation and security
Casement Windows
Because of their traditional look casement windows are especially popular with renovators. Casement windows are side opening and can catch the breeze and direct it inwards. In exposed positions casement windows may be forced wide open in strong wind gusts. This can be prevented with the use of restrictor stays which can limit the opening in these situations.
- In-built strength
- French casements are an option with no centre post
- Friction stays available to provide 90° opening to allow easy cleaning of the outside
Horizontal Sliding Windows
Horizontal sliding windows are ideal when you need a window that doesn't project onto walkways or patios. Single or double sliding panels meeting in the middle are available, as well as a double slider window where two panels on parallel tracks stack behind each other.
- Strong panels for strength and durability
- Heavy duty Slidemaster version for demanding environments and very high wind zones
- Insect screens work well in conjunction with sliding windows making them ideal in cases where insects are a problem and exterior mesh screens are required
Vertical Sliding Windows
Vertical sliding windows can either be double hung aluminium sliders or all glass Shugg sliders - two counter-balanced panes of glass which slide past each other with no aluminium rails to obstruct the view. Double hung windows have two surrounding frame options - a scrolled Edwardian appearance or a clean, flat contemporary look.
- Double hung sliders can pivot inwards to allow for easy cleaning.
- Maximum size for each sliding panel is limited to 20kg.
Bi-Fold Windows
If you want to make the most of your dramatic views or enhance your “indoor/outdoor flow” bi-fold windows are the answer. Bi-fold windows run on an easy-slide track system which allows for wide openings onto decks or patios.
- Range from 2 to 6 panels wide, giving up to 4m of unobstructed view.
- Carry the weight on the bottom roller thus preventing panels from jamming.
- Maximum panel weight of 40kg applies.
Other windows supplied by Kaiapoi Aluminium are as follows:
Bay, box & Greenhouse Windows
These windows are ideal for adding light and creating a warm, spacious area. All project from the wall of the house.
Bay Windows - a traditional design that can accept most opening sash styles, and can include French doors if using a full height bay creating a mini conservatory effect.
Box Windows - stand out from the house and are normally built up to the eaves. They usually have a bench base, ideal for window seats, but can be built down to floor level if required.
Greenhouse Windows - are similar to box windows but have a sloping glazed roof making them ideal for use in kitchens.
Custom Designed Windows
Custom designed windows can give your home a unique sense of style. Whether large panels of glass are required, an unusual design or a functional outcome is needed; Kaiapoi Aluminium can supply the solution. Custom designed windows include curved, raked, arched and faceted windows as well as curved glass, glass blocks and louvre windows.
Roof Windows
Roof windows are ideal for conservatories, kitchens, bathrooms, passageways or any other area that will benefit from increased light and/or high level ventilation.
