Know these points about aluminum-clad wood doors and windows

Nov 09, 2023

Many people only know about aluminum-clad wood doors and windows in the building materials market. Many times, customers don’t know much about aluminum-clad wood doors and windows, so they don’t have many questions to ask on-site. Then when they listen to the introduction, they will also be confused because of the mutual understanding between the two parties. The awareness of aluminum-clad wood doors and windows is not on the same standard, resulting in not much information being received on site. Maybe I just asked about the price, and the general feeling is that it is too expensive, and then I am not in the mood to listen. In fact, although the price of aluminum-clad wood doors and windows is more expensive than ordinary doors and windows, aluminum-clad wood doors and windows are also very cost-effective doors and windows.

Understanding aluminum-clad wood doors and windows mainly depends on the following aspects.
1. The concept of aluminum-wood composite was introduced in Germany, and domestic manufacturers have processed this concept and imitated aluminum-wood composite doors and windows in form, so today's aluminum-clad wood doors and windows are available.
2. Germany has strict requirements for the structure, standard system, and connection methods of aluminum-wood composite doors and windows. For example, the connection method between aluminum and wood, aluminum-wood composite doors and windows use plastic snap buckles and aluminum suspension buckles and use three sets of corner codes to connect scientifically. However, domestic aluminum-clad wood usually adopts mechanical connection methods such as screwing or welding, and the corner codes are in one set or there is no corner code. Screwing and welding have destructive effects on the wood and aluminum profiles themselves, and the stability and insulation effects can be imagined.
3. The wall thickness of the aluminum alloy of aluminum-wood composite doors and windows is 2.2-2.4mm, while the wall thickness of the aluminum alloy of aluminum-clad wood is usually about 1mm. Aluminum-clad wood only imitates the form of aluminum-wood composite, and the window strength only relies on solid wood, while the window strength of the aluminum-wood composite can reach 1+1>2. The so-called "1+1>2" means that the strength of the window is greater than the combined strength of aluminum alloy and solid wood.
4. The main stress-bearing structure of aluminum-clad wood is pure solid wood, while the inside of wood-clad aluminum is a layer of wood, and the main stress-bearing structure is broken bridge aluminum alloy. Most aluminum-clad wood doors and windows use red oak square wood or larch square wood as the main structural material. Through intelligent mechanical machine tools such as machining centers, they become an important part of the doors and windows. The aluminum profiles are covered on the outside of the wood to withstand wind and sun. Prevent wood from rotting and aging. The appearance of wood-clad aluminum and aluminum-clad wood windows are very similar after installation. The interior is solid wood, and the exterior is broken bridge aluminum alloy. A layer of high-quality pure wood is inlaid on the inside of the window through a special process to form a wood-clad aluminum window. This structure is perfect It fully retains the aesthetic characteristics of wooden windows, while increasing the rigidity, weather resistance, wind pressure resistance, and other characteristics of wooden windows.
5. Classification of aluminum-clad wood doors and windows. Generally, aluminum-clad wood doors and windows can be divided into three types: German, Italian, and European. German-style aluminum-clad wood doors and windows are made of aluminum alloy profiles on the premise of retaining the characteristics and functions of pure solid wood doors and windows. Frames made by mechanical methods; Italian wood-clad aluminum doors and windows combine the characteristics of insulated (broken bridge) aluminum alloy doors and windows with the main characteristics of solid wood doors and windows. They are more environmentally friendly, decorative, and energy-saving than aluminum Alloy doors and windows.
