Steel windows or aluminium

I would be so grateful for advice. We are in the process of a major rebuild on our quirky property, it only has front fenestration (so no windows anywhere but at the front) I am in a dilemma over steel windows versus aluminum (ive found a much cheaper company than crittall) who make steel double glazed units, my concern is; are the new steel double glazed windows prone to condensation and are they cold like the old single glazed versions? Any other pros and cons would be greatly appreciated. It would be great to hear from people with actual experience with steel windows in their own property.

Many thanks for your advice.

Sarah

    Hi

    Steel windows are fantastic as long as they are thermally broken

    Secco, mhb, and Jansen there are a couple of others as well but all of these will cost over £1800 m2

    W20 systems like Crittal are not thermally broken and will condensate so be careful just because it’s double glazed lots of frames are not thermally broken

    Heritage aluminium is a compromise but much cheaper

    Check out our web site for photos and details

    Below are thermally broken steel projects we are installing at the moment

    So many companies just try and jump on the bandwagon with cheap copies. Use a company that already has good feed back and a track record who fabricate there own products and don’t just purchase product from trade suppliers as these are likely to be mass produced with budget in mind and not quality. We have used Skyglaze on several projects and seen there name pop up several times on Houzz. Highly recommend and Robyn is extremely helpful. Our recent job
