Product Overview

Aluminum Fixed Glass Windows – Unobstructed Light, Unbeatable Performance

Aluminum fixed glass windows — also known as picture windows — are the architectural industry's preferred solution for maximising glazed area, capturing dramatic views, and flooding interior spaces with natural daylight. Because the sash does not open or move, fixed windows can achieve larger pane sizes, slimmer frame profiles, and higher thermal and acoustic ratings than any comparable operable window. SKATE's aluminum fixed glass windows are engineered from the finest 6063-T5 aluminium alloy profiles, designed to handle oversized glass weights, and rigorously tested to withstand the highest wind and water pressure ratings in our product range.

Engineering for Maximum Glass Area

When designing with aluminum fixed glass windows, the absence of operational hardware and moving sashes allows the aluminium frame to be optimised purely for structural load-bearing and weather exclusion. SKATE's fixed window profiles feature 75 mm – 110 mm wide frames with 1.8 mm wall thickness and an integrated PA66 GF25 thermal break of 24 mm to 35 mm — providing exceptional rigidity across very wide or tall openings without the need for external mullions that would interrupt the view.

Corner joints are seamlessly welded rather than mechanically assembled, creating a monolithic frame structure capable of holding glass units weighing several hundred kilograms without deflection or seal failure. The deep glazing rebate accommodates glass configurations from 24 mm standard double-glazed units all the way to 50 mm triple-glazed laminated assemblies.
