What are the advantages of aluminium windows over uPVC or timber?

Aluminium window and door replacements are stronger and slimmer. This means you get more glass and natural light. They don’t rot or warp like timber, and they also won’t fade or crack like uPVC. They’re designed for low maintenance and long-term use. Our aluminium solutions are a smart upgrade. They add value to your home or commercial space.

Do aluminium windows perform well in Melbourne’s climate?

Yes. Melbourne has changing weather, sometimes all four seasons in one day. But don’t stress out, our fully Australian-made aluminium door and window replacements are manufactured to handle such situations. With the right glazing, they keep your home comfortable all year.

What is a thermal break in aluminium frames, and why is it important?

A thermal break is a layer inside the frame that stops heat from entering through the aluminium. It improves insulation. Best for making your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer. They also save big on electricity bills.

Which glazing options do you offer (double glazing, Low-E, etc.)?

We offer everything from standard single glazing through to double glazing, low-E glass, acoustic glass, and tinted options. All glazing is custom-made locally.

Can I choose custom shapes or sizes for my windows and doors?

Yes. Every product we make is built to order at our local facility. So the custom designs are no problem. Whatever your choice is, we create a bespoke solution that fits perfectly with your living or commercial space.

What kinds of opening styles do your aluminium door systems support?

Our aluminium doors come in a wide range of styles. We supply sliding, stacking, French, hinged, and bi-fold doors and more. Each one has its own advantage. From space-saving sliders to bi-folds that open up a whole wall, we’ll guide you on the best fit for your home.

Absolutely. We offer professional installation services so that all our aluminium windows and doors in Melbourne are fitted to perfection. Our experienced team handles everything, including delivery, fitting, and finishing touches. With us, you can be sure that your installation will always be treated with care and precision.

How long does your installation process take?

Most installations take just a few days. But it also depends on the size of your project. As we manage the whole process, everything is done efficiently and to Australian standards.

What does your installation package include (seals, flashing, clean-up)?

We take care of the full job. According to our installation packages, we remove old frames of your windows and doors, fit our new aluminium solution with proper seal and flashing. Once our work is done, we clean the site before leaving. Our team at Accent Windows makes the entire aluminium doors and windows installation process easy for you and gives you peace of mind.

What warranty do you provide on windows, doors, hardware, and installation?

How do I maintain aluminium windows and doors to keep them lasting longer?

Aluminium is very easy to look after. A quick wash with mild soapy water a few times a year keeps the frames looking fresh. For hardware like locks and rollers, a little lubricant now and then will keep everything working smoothly for years.

FAQs

What are commercial aluminium windows?

Commercial aluminium windows are window systems engineered specifically for use in commercial properties including offices, retail spaces, restaurants, cafes, hospitality venues, and industrial facilities. They are built to higher structural and performance standards than standard residential windows, using heavier-duty framing, commercial-grade hardware, and glazing configurations that meet Australian commercial building requirements. Accent Windows manufactures a full range of commercial aluminium windows in Melbourne, all made to Australian aluminium standards and custom built to suit any commercial property or project specification.

What types of commercial windows does Accent Windows supply in Melbourne?

Accent Windows supplies a complete range of commercial aluminium windows in Melbourne. The range includes commercial awning windows, commercial casement windows, commercial fixed windows, commercial sliding windows, commercial bifold windows, bay and rake windows, sashless windows, louvre windows, and curtain wall and Ecowall systems. Every window type is custom manufactured to your exact specifications, ensuring the right fit, performance, and appearance for your commercial project regardless of the scale or complexity.

How are commercial aluminium windows different from residential windows?

Commercial aluminium windows use heavier framing profiles, stronger hardware, and more robust sealing systems than residential alternatives. They are engineered to handle greater wind loads, span larger openings, and comply with the stricter structural and energy performance requirements that apply to commercial buildings under the National Construction Code. They are also available in configurations such as curtain walls and large-format fixed glazing that are not typically used in domestic settings. Accent Windows manufactures both residential and commercial windows and can advise on the right specification for your project.

Are commercial aluminium windows suitable for restaurants and cafes in Melbourne?

Yes. Commercial aluminium windows are widely used in Melbourne restaurants, cafes, and hospitality venues. Bifold and sliding commercial window configurations are particularly popular for venues that want to open their street-facing facade completely to create an indoor-outdoor dining experience. Fixed and casement commercial windows suit venues where a clean, modern street presence is the priority. All commercial window types are available with double glazing for acoustic performance in busy urban locations, and with a wide range of powder-coat colours to match your brand and interior design.

Can commercial aluminium windows be double glazed?

Our full range of commercial aluminium windows is available with single and double glazed configurations. Double glazing is recommended for most commercial applications in Melbourne where thermal comfort, acoustic performance, and energy efficiency are priorities. For commercial properties in bushfire-prone areas, our commercial windows can also be specified to meet BAL-40 bushfire attack level requirements. All products are manufactured to Australian aluminium standards and comply with relevant commercial building codes.

What is a curtain wall window system?

A curtain wall is a non-structural glazing system fixed to the exterior of a commercial building that covers the full facade from floor to ceiling or across multiple storeys. It is not load-bearing but instead hangs from the building structure, providing full-facade glazing for maximum natural light, architectural impact, and thermal performance. Accent Windows manufactures and installs curtain wall and Ecowall systems in Melbourne for commercial and high-end residential projects, custom fabricated at our Bayswater North factory to your exact project specifications.

Does Accent Windows manufacture commercial windows in Melbourne?

Yes. Accent Windows is a leading supplier of commercial aluminium windows in Melbourne, with over 45 years of experience manufacturing and installing window systems for commercial projects across Victoria. Every commercial window is manufactured at our Bayswater North factory using locally sourced aluminium, ensuring full quality control and compliance with Australian standards. We are 100% Australian made and owned, and we manage the complete process from design consultation and manufacture through to professional installation and aftercare.

Contact us today to get started on your next commercial project.

What glazing compliance applies to commercial aluminium windows in Melbourne?

Commercial window glazing is subject to specific requirements under AS 1288 for glass selection and installation, and NCC Section J for energy efficiency in commercial buildings classified as Class 3 to 9. Section J sets requirements on glazing U-Values, solar heat gain coefficients, and the proportion of facade that can be glazed. Safety glass is required under AS 1288 in high-traffic commercial glazing positions, with laminated and toughened safety options available depending on the application. For commercial projects where thermal performance across a larger glazing run is a Section J requirement, double glazed units with documented U-Values are available across our commercial window range. Our Area Managers work with architects and builders to confirm the right glazing specification for each commercial project’s NCC obligations.
