Every Dexora system is built to perform for years, not just look good.

A window is essentially an opening in a wall above floor level, traditionally meant to provide natural light, ventilation, and outside views. With modern advancements, windows now do much more—offering insulation from noise, protection against harsh weather, preventing rainwater seepage, and helping reduce energy costs. They also enhance the overall aesthetics of a space, breaking the monotony of plain walls and adding style to your home or office.

Dexora aluminium windows are available in a wide range of designs and styles, allowing you to transform the look and functionality of any space. Choosing the right type of window depends on your layout, usage, and design preference. Here are some popular options:

Sliding Windows

Designed with sashes that glide horizontally on a fixed frame, these windows are ideal for both residential and commercial spaces where space-saving and ease of use are important

Casement Windows

Hinged on the side, these windows open inward or outward like a door. They are widely used in homes for better ventilation and easy operation.

Bay Windows

Extending outward from the main wall, these windows create additional space and offer wide views. Perfect for larger rooms, they add elegance and a premium look.

Tilt & Turn Windows

These versatile windows can tilt inward for controlled ventilation or fully open like a casement window. They are ideal when you want airflow without letting in rain or dust.

Combination Windows

A mix of different window styles, these are customized to suit specific functional and aesthetic needs, offering flexibility in design.

Fixed Windows

Non-openable windows that are perfect for areas where ventilation is not required but natural light and clear views are desired.

Awning Windows

Hinged at the top, these windows open outward and are suitable for allowing ventilation even during light rain.

Understanding your space and requirements will help you select the right aluminium window system, ensuring both functionality and visual appeal with Dexora.

Framing Material:

Earlier, materials like wood were commonly used for windows, but with evolving needs and modern construction practices, aluminium has become a preferred choice. Dexora aluminium windows are designed to handle temperature variations, heavy rains, and continuous exposure to sunlight without compromising on performance or aesthetics.

Aluminium frames are strong, durable, low-maintenance, and available in a wide range of finishes and colours. They do not warp, require minimal upkeep, and offer excellent energy efficiency—making them a reliable and long-lasting solution for modern homes and spaces.

Components Of A Window:

Outer Frame

The fixed part of the window that is installed into the wall opening during construction.

Sash

The movable (or sometimes fixed) part of the window that holds the glass and allows opening and closing.

Trim

Used to cover the gaps between the window frame and the wall, trims also enhance the overall look from both inside and outside.

Glazing

Refers to the glass used in the window. Options like double or triple glazing help improve insulation and reduce noise.

Transom

Horizontal bars that divide the outer frame of the window.

Mullion

Vertical bars that divide the outer frame into sections.

Midrail

Horizontal or vertical dividers within the sash for added support and design.

Sill

The bottom horizontal part of the window that supports the frame and helps in water drainage.

Grill

Metal bars fitted within or onto the window frame to enhance security and safety.

Aluminium is one of the most preferred materials for modern windows and doors due to its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and lightweight nature. Dexora aluminium systems are designed to offer durability, versatility, and long-term performance.

Aluminium frames have a long lifespan, allowing users to enjoy their sleek appearance and strength for many years. With high-quality powder coating, these systems can last over 30 years, and anodized finishes further enhance durability. Since its adoption in construction over decades, aluminium has become a trusted choice for both developers and homeowners—offering a perfect blend of style, performance, and reliability.

Glass – Types & Applications In Modern Windows

Glass is a non-crystalline (amorphous) material that can be transparent or translucent. It is manufactured using the float process, where molten glass is poured over a bed of liquid tin and cooled under controlled conditions to achieve a smooth, uniform surface. The raw materials typically include sand, limestone, soda ash, dolomite, and other additives, heated at very high temperatures to form high-quality glass.

In Dexora aluminium windows and doors, different types of glass are used based on performance, safety, and design requirements.

Types of Glass:

Float / Annealed Glass

Also known as flat glass, this is basic glass formed through controlled cooling to remove internal stress. It offers good clarity and can be cut, shaped, and polished as required.

Toughened Glass

Thermally treated to be up to 4 times stronger than regular glass, it is highly impact-resistant. When broken, it shatters into small, less harmful pieces, making it a safer option.

Heat Strengthened Glass

Stronger than annealed glass (about 2 times), it offers better resistance to thermal stress. When broken, it forms larger pieces that tend to remain in place for some time.

Frosted Glass

Ideal for privacy, this glass allows light to pass through while blocking clear visibility. It is created using sandblasting or acid etching techniques.

Insulated / Double Glazing Glass

Made by sealing two or more glass panes with an air or gas layer in between, this type improves thermal insulation and helps reduce heat transfer and noise.

Laminated Glass

Consists of multiple glass layers bonded with a special interlayer (PVB). It is widely used for safety, as broken pieces stick to the layer instead of falling apart.

Tinted (Colored) Glass

Used for both aesthetics and performance, tinted glass helps reduce glare, control sunlight, and enhance the overall look of the space.

RESULT: With Dexora aluminium systems, choosing the right glass type ensures better safety, insulation, energy efficiency, and aesthetics—helping you create a comfortable and high-performance living or working environment.
