Plastic Steel Windows FAQ

Q: How do plastic steel windows compare to traditional aluminum windows?
A: Plastic steel windows offer superior thermal insulation (up to 60% more efficient), better soundproofing, and enhanced security compared to aluminum windows. While aluminum may be lighter, plastic steel windows provide better structural integrity and don't conduct heat or cold as readily. The steel core allows for slimmer sightlines than PVC-only windows while maintaining strength.
Q: Are plastic steel windows suitable for coastal areas with high salt content?
A: Yes, our plastic steel windows are specifically treated with anti-corrosive coatings that make them ideal for coastal environments. The UPVC cladding protects the steel core from salt spray, while all metal components are either galvanized or made from marine-grade stainless steel. We recommend more frequent cleaning (every 3-6 months) in such environments to maintain optimal performance.
Q: Can plastic steel windows be painted to match my home's exterior?
A: Absolutely. Unlike standard PVC windows, plastic steel windows can be professionally repainted every 5-7 years if desired. The UPVC surface accepts specialized paints designed for plastic surfaces. We offer a range of 25 standard colors, and custom color matching is available for an additional fee. The paint won't affect the window's thermal or structural properties.

Installation and Maintenance Guide

Proper installation is crucial for maximizing the performance of your plastic steel windows. We recommend professional installation by our certified technicians. Maintenance involves simply wiping down frames with mild soapy water every 3-6 months and lubricating moving parts annually with silicone-based lubricants.

More Plastic Steel Windows Questions

Q: How energy efficient are plastic steel windows?
A: Our plastic steel windows achieve U-values as low as 0.8 W/m²K when paired with triple glazing, meeting and exceeding most energy efficiency standards worldwide. The thermal break in the steel core prevents heat transfer, while the multi-chambered UPVC profile provides additional insulation. This can reduce heating costs by 15-25% compared to older window systems.
Q: What security features do plastic steel windows include?
A: Our windows come standard with multipoint locking systems (typically 6-10 locking points), reinforced frames with anti-drill protection, and laminated or toughened glass options. The steel core makes the frame extremely resistant to forced entry attempts—up to 5 times stronger than standard PVC frames. Optional security upgrades include burglar-proof glazing and smart lock integration.
Q: How long does installation typically take?
A: For a standard 3-bedroom home, complete window replacement typically takes 2-3 days. Each window unit requires about 45-90 minutes for removal of the old window and installation of the new plastic steel window, plus additional time for finishing and sealing. We minimize disruption by working on one room at a time when possible. New construction installations are generally faster as they don't require removal of existing windows.

Customization Options

Our plastic steel windows are available in various styles including:

  • Casement windows (side-hung or top-hung)
  • Tilt-and-turn windows
  • Sliding windows
  • Fixed picture windows
  • Bay and bow windows
  • Custom shapes (arches, circles, triangles)

Hardware finishes include brushed nickel, antique brass, chrome, and black matte options.

Plastic Steel Windows - Final Questions

Q: What warranties come with your plastic steel windows?
A: We provide a 20-year warranty on the steel framework against manufacturing defects, a 10-year warranty on the UPVC cladding, and a 5-year warranty on mechanical components. Glass units carry a separate 10-year warranty. The warranty covers material defects and workmanship but doesn't cover damage from improper installation, accidents, or natural disasters.
Q: Can plastic steel windows be recycled at end of life?
A: Yes, plastic steel windows are highly recyclable. The steel components can be completely recycled, while the UPVC can be ground and reused in new plastic products. Many window components (handles, glass etc.) can also be separated and recycled. We participate in a take-back program where we'll remove and responsibly recycle your old windows when installing new ones.
Q: How do I clean and maintain my plastic steel windows?
A: For routine cleaning, use a soft cloth or sponge with mild soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents. Clean tracks and moving parts every 6 months, and apply silicone spray to keep mechanisms operating smoothly. Inspect weather stripping annually and replace if worn. For tough stains on UPVC, specialized plastic cleaners are available. The glass can be cleaned like any other window glass.
