2025,06,05

Aluminum Windows are common window types in modern buildings. According to the different opening methods, they can be mainly divided into the following types, each of which has its own unique characteristics and applicable scenarios:

1. Aluminum Casement Windows

Features

Good sealing: Casement windows are connected to the window frame through hinges or hinges. When closed, the window sash fits tightly with the window frame, which can effectively prevent wind and rain from intruding, and has excellent thermal insulation performance.

Large ventilation area: Casement windows can be fully opened, with excellent ventilation effect, which is conducive to indoor air circulation.

High security: Casement windows are usually equipped with multi-point locking systems and have good anti-theft performance.

Application scenarios

Residential: Casement windows are suitable for rooms such as bedrooms and living rooms that require good ventilation and sound insulation.

Commercial buildings: such as office buildings, shopping malls, etc., have high requirements for the sealing and safety of doors and windows, and casement windows are a good choice.

2.Aluminum Sliding Windows

Features

Space saving: Sliding windows are opened and closed by sliding on the window frame through pulleys, which do not occupy indoor and outdoor space and are suitable for small apartments or places with limited space.

Easy to operate: The opening and closing of the sliding window is simple, and the elderly and children can also operate it easily.

Beautiful and generous: The sliding window has smooth lines and a simple appearance, which can enhance the overall beauty of the building.

Application scenarios

Kitchen, bathroom: These spaces are usually small, and the sliding window can effectively save space while ensuring ventilation.

Balcony: As a transition area between indoor and outdoor spaces, the sliding window can not only maintain ventilation but also prevent rain from intruding.

3.Top-hung window

Features

Ventilation safety: The top-hung window is connected to the window frame through a hinge. When opened, the window sash tilts upward, which can ensure ventilation and prevent children from climbing or objects from falling.

Good rainproof performance: The opening angle of the top-hung window is small, which can effectively prevent rain from splashing into the room.

Application scenarios

High-rise residential buildings: High-rise residential buildings have high requirements for the safety of doors and windows. The top-hung window can not only meet the ventilation needs but also ensure safety.

Humid environment: such as bathrooms, kitchens, etc., the top-hung window can effectively prevent water vapor from intruding and keep the room dry.

4.Bottom-hung windows (inward-tilting windows)

Features

Various ventilation methods: bottom-hung windows can be tilted inward to achieve micro-ventilation while maintaining indoor privacy.

Wind and dustproof: When tilted inward, a certain angle is formed between the window sash and the window frame, which can effectively block wind, sand and dust.

Application scenarios

Regions with strong wind and sand: bottom-hung windows can effectively prevent wind and sand from invading the room.

Places that require micro-ventilation: such as offices, meeting rooms, etc., bottom-hung windows can maintain ventilation while avoiding noise and dust interference.
