Choosing the Right Colour and Finish for Your Glazing

July 1, 2026

One of the advantages of modern aluminium glazing is choice. Every door and window we install is available in any RAL colour, which means you are not limited to a handful of standard shades. That opens up a lot of possibilities, but it can also make the decision harder, so here are a few things to think about.

Start with the style of your home. Period properties often suit softer, more traditional tones, while contemporary homes and extensions can carry bolder choices such as anthracite grey or matt black. Look at the existing details too, like the roof, brickwork and any nearby doors, so the new glazing feels considered rather than random.

Think about contrast as well. Matching frames to the walls creates a calm, seamless look, while contrasting frames make the glazing a feature. Neither is wrong, it depends on the effect you want.

Finally, remember that aluminium finishes are durable and low maintenance. A quality powder coated finish will not fade, warp or need repainting, so the colour you choose is one you will enjoy for many years. If you would like to see how a particular finish might look on your home, get in touch and we will help you decide.
