How to Choose Aluminium Windows: Sliding, Casement or Tilt-and-Turn?

A simple guide to choosing an aluminium window opening system by room, space and ventilation, with tips on glass and colour.

The opening system affects ventilation, sealing and daily ease of use. Here are the key differences so you can choose with confidence.

Sliding windows

Sashes slide sideways and need no swing space, so they suit wide openings and rooms where sashes cannot open in or out — common in living rooms and large views.

Casement windows

The sash opens fully like a door for complete ventilation and tighter sealing when closed — good for bedrooms and kitchens where there is space to open.

Tilt-and-turn

Combines full side opening with a tilted top opening for safe ventilation without opening the window fully — practical for bathrooms and children’s rooms.

Glass and colour

  • Double glazing improves thermal comfort and reduces noise; results vary by location.
  • Obscured glass for bathrooms and overlooked elevations.
  • Pick the frame colour from the RAL range: black and graphite for a modern look, bronze and champagne for warmth.
