Why use thermally broken aluminum systems?

A thermal break reduces direct heat transfer through the aluminum frame. Final whole-window performance depends on the complete frame, glazing, spacer, opening type and tested configuration.

What information is needed before pricing?

A useful review starts with sizes, opening types, glazing and performance requirements, finish direction, hardware expectations and project schedule. Drawings are strongly preferred for new construction.

Does ARTMETA coordinate installation interfaces?

Yes. Opening dimensions, sill and perimeter conditions, adjacent cladding, waterproofing strategy and installation scope are reviewed as project-specific interfaces.
