Triple glazed aluminium windows in Hexham
Looking at triple glazed aluminium windows for a home in Hexham? We survey, quote and fit across Northumberland, and the NE46 postcode district is part of that.
More glass, less frame: the strong choice for big openings. Triple glazed aluminium windows use thermally broken aluminium frames, where an insulating strip separates the inside and outside of the frame, holding a three-pane sealed unit.
Winter light and glass choice in Hexham
Winter days in Hexham are short: about 7 h 10 min of daylight on 21 December, with the sun peaking near 12°. That low angle reaches deep into south-facing rooms, so we match the glass to each elevation rather than using one spec for the whole house.

Rules for aluminium windows in England
The rules for replacement windows in England are set by Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments): 1.4 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band B or better. Replacement windows are a controlled fitting. A competent person scheme installer (such as FENSA or Certass) self-certifies the work and notifies the council within 30 days; otherwise a building control body approves it.
Planning: Replacing windows on a house is normally permitted development if the new ones look similar. New upper-floor windows in a side wall must be obscure glazed and fixed, or open only above 1.7 m. Flats and maisonettes have no householder permitted development rights, so a change that alters their appearance needs planning permission. An Article 4 direction in a conservation area may mean permission is needed, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
How it works
After the free survey you get a written quote naming the frame system, the glass build-up and the whole-window U-value for every item. Windows are made to order, then fitted, sealed and made good, one opening at a time.
- Every opening measured, including escape and vent needs
- Frames rated for the weight of triple glass
- Old windows removed and taken away
- Each opening closed up the same day
Questions from Hexham
Are aluminium windows cold?
Not if the frame has a proper thermal break. Modern thermally broken systems with triple glass reach whole-window U-values around 1.0, well inside the Building Regulations limit for replacement windows.
Can aluminium windows take triple glazing?
Yes, and the strength of aluminium suits the extra weight. The system needs a glazing rebate deep enough for the unit, which we check on survey.

Yes. We arrange surveys and fitting in Hexham and across Northumberland. Send your postcode and the windows or doors you want replaced, and we will book a free survey.
