Aluminium or steel: what you are paying for
A South African aluminium window and door maker compares the two frames most homes choose between.
- Rust
- Aluminium forms its own protective oxide layer and does not rust; steel rusts once its paint or galvanising is chipped or worn.
- Upkeep
- Powder-coated or anodised aluminium needs a wash with mild soapy water and a clean of the tracks and drainage holes; steel needs sanding, treating and repainting every few years.
- Security
- Multi-point locks, laminated glass that holds together when broken, anti-lift sliders and fitted burglar bars make a well-specified aluminium window at least as secure as steel for most homes.
- Comfort
- Double glazing, Low-E or tinted glass and thermally broken frames cut heat and noise, and help new builds and extensions meet SANS 10400-XA.
- Lifespan
- Quality aluminium windows typically last 30 years or more with little upkeep.
- At the coast
- Salt air speeds up corrosion; aluminium with a marine-grade finish holds up far better than steel in Durban and along the KwaZulu-Natal coast.
- Styles
- Sliding, casement, top-hung, turn-and-tilt and fixed windows, from single units to whole walls of glass.

Choosing the frame colour
A South African aluminium window maker explains the two finishes, which are chosen before the window is made.
- Chosen at the factory
- The finish goes onto the profile at the factory, so the colour is decided before the window is made.
- Powder coating
- A polyester powder sprayed on and baked in an oven forms a hard coloured layer; scratches can be touched up.
- Anodising
- The metal's own oxide layer is thickened, so the finish is part of the aluminium and cannot peel or chip, though damage is harder to hide.
- Standard colours
- White, bronze, charcoal, black and natural anodised.
- Near the sea
- Say so when you ask for a quote, and rinse the frames with fresh water about once a month.
- Cleaning
- Neither finish needs repainting; never use scouring pads, solvents, thinners or abrasive cleaners on them.
