Thermal Break Aluminium
Windows and Doors نوافذ وأبواب ألمنيوم عازلة حرارياً
Thermal break aluminium windows use an insulating polyamide strip to reduce heat transfer through the frame, improving indoor comfort and energy efficiency. Combined with double glazing, they help keep interiors cooler and reduce air-conditioning costs. Saudi Aluminium Works provides thermal break aluminium window and door solutions for projects across Saudi Arabia.
How a Thermal Break Works
Aluminium conducts heat very quickly. In a standard frame, summer heat travels straight through the metal into the room. A polyamide thermal break, a glass-fibre reinforced PA66 strip 14–34 mm wide, is rolled in between the inner and outer profiles to stop that heat path.
- Standard aluminium (no thermal break) 5.5–7.0 W/m²K
- Thermal break aluminium [2.0–3.5] W/m²K
- High-performance thermal break [Below 2.0] W/m²K
WHAT WE OFFER
Aluminium Doors
Thermal Break Sliding Doors
Large glass sliding doors for balconies, terraces and villa openings. Our sliding systems have thermal break frames, double glazing and smooth stainless steel rollers.
Lift and Slide Doors
When you turn the handle, the sash lifts off its seals so it can slide easily. Turn it back and the sash drops and compresses the gaskets for a tight seal.
Aluminium Hinged Doors
Single and double aluminium hinged doors for entrances, offices, and homes, with multi-point locking for stronger security and a tighter seal.
Folding Doors
Bi-fold systems that open an entire wall to a terrace or courtyard.
Aluminium Window Types
Casement Windows
Side-hung windows that open outward or inward on hinges. When closed, the gaskets compress fully, giving the best air and water tightness of any opening window.
Tilt and Turn Windows
One handle gives two opening positions. Tilted, the top opens for safe ventilation. Turned, the whole sash swings in for cleaning and full opening. These are popular in residential towers, hotels and hospitals.
Sliding Windows
Space-saving horizontal sliders for villas, apartments and offices. They come with interlocking sashes and brush seals for dust resistance.
Fixed Windows
Non-opening frames for large glazed areas, combined with opening vents where needed.
Testing and Quality
Saudi Aluminium Works provides aluminium windows and doors designed to meet project performance requirements, including air infiltration, water penetration, and wind load standards. Our solutions support reliable performance, quality installation, and compliance with applicable Saudi building codes.
Energy Efficient Aluminium Windows for Saudi Climate
Every window and door system we make is designed for Saudi conditions:
- Double glazing: low-E insulated glass units with argon or air cavities, selected for low U-value and low SHGC
- EPDM gaskets: UV-stable rubber seals that stay flexible at high temperatures and don’t crack in the sun
- Sand and dust resistance: brush seals, raised drainage tracks and sealed corner joints keep sand out of tracks and interiors during storms
- SBC 601 and SBC 602: frame and glass combinations are selected to meet energy code requirements for commercial and residential buildings
- Coastal protection: PVDF or anodized finishes and stainless steel hardware for Jeddah and Eastern Province projects
Applications
Heat
low-E IGUs and thermal break profiles bring the U-value and SHGC within SBC 601 limits
Wind load
every system is designed to SBC 301 structural loads and tested to ASTM E330 on our in-house rig
Thermal movement
anchor brackets and joints are designed for large daily temperature swings
Sand and dust
we test air and water tightness to ASTM E283 and ASTM E331
