Product Overview

Double Glazed Aluminium Awning Windows – Ventilate in Any Weather

Double glazed aluminium awning windows are a smart, versatile fenestration solution that allows fresh air into your home even during light rain. Hinged at the top and opening outward from the bottom, the sash acts as a natural canopy — deflecting rainwater away from the interior while maintaining free airflow. SKATE's awning window systems combine this practical functionality with the thermal superiority of double glazing and the structural longevity of precision-extruded aluminium, making them a top choice for bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, and any space where ventilation privacy and weather protection are equally important.

Why Double Glazing Makes the Difference

A double glazed aluminium awning window incorporates two panes of glass separated by an insulating air or gas-filled cavity, dramatically reducing heat transfer compared to single-glazed alternatives. SKATE offers a comprehensive range of double glazing configurations: standard 5+12A+5 mm units for budget-conscious applications, premium 6+16Ar+6 mm Low-E argon-filled units for high-energy-efficiency projects, and laminated safety glass options for enhanced security. The insulating cavity is sealed with warm-edge spacer bars available in silver aluminium or matt black — the latter virtually eliminating visible cold bridging at the glass perimeter.
