FAQs
Quick Answers to Common Queries
Can you tell me about the materials used to construct pergolas?
Pergolas can be built using different materials like aluminium, wood, or iron. However, aluminium is considered the best material for pergolas due to its low maintenance requirements, versatility in incorporating additional elements, range of customisation options, scalability to meet various needs, sleek design with attention to detail, and bioclimatic adaptability.
Can you tell me more about Bioclimatic pergolas?
This innovative design prioritises thermal and visual comfort conditions using passive cooling and heating systems to create an optimal environment. Alumil's bioclimatic pergolas are designed with this in mind, incorporating adjustable movable louvers and additional features like glass sliding and shutter systems, vertical shading screens (ZIP), LED lighting, and more, all of which provide precise control over the internal environment. With a bioclimatic pergola from Alumil, you can enjoy a comfortable and inviting outdoor living space all year round.
What is the durability of aluminium fences?
Like any aluminium system, aluminium fences are highly durable and do not rust, given that they are constructed and installed correctly under normal conditions. They also require minimal maintenance and can be treated with various surface treatments to ensure longevity. Additionally, unlike other materials, aluminium fencing does not swell, crack, deform, or deteriorate over time.
Could you provide some tips on how to maintain my fence?
Despite their additional and decorative elements, our fences are aluminium systems, which require minimal maintenance due to the nature of the construction material.
How secure are aluminium shutters against a possible break-in?
Regarding the security of aluminium shutters, it's important to understand that their primary function is to provide shade, not to act as a security measure. However, they can still slow down a potential break-in attempt. Adding locks or slides to the shading system can also serve as a deterrent.
Can I trust aluminium railings for safety?
“Safety” refers to the level of protection provided to people in the area. Whether balcony or internal staircase railings, our solutions offer exceptional security. Our systems are known for their sturdy profiles and connections, which remain intact even in coastal areas since aluminium doesn't corrode.
Can you tell me about the aesthetic options of aluminium railings?
Aluminium railings offer numerous design solutions that cater to different preferences. The options are limitless, from traditional to modern minimalist railings, railings with horizontal or vertical bars, and railings that hold glass panes. Our network of skilled manufacturers possesses the expertise and experience to recommend the ideal solution for your space.
Could you provide some guidance on the necessary maintenance for an Alumil pergola?
If you're a proud owner of an Alumil pergola, you'll be pleased to know that these structures require very little maintenance thanks to their robust aluminium construction. However, it's important to note that any additional built-in components, such as glazing, lighting, sound, heating, and automation systems, may require maintenance at some point. To ensure proper upkeep of these components, it's best to consult with the fabricator and learn about their specific maintenance needs.
Does an Alumil pergola offer privacy?
Suppose additional elements are selected and installed on the pergola, such as glazing and shutter systems, vertical shading (ZIP) screens, etc. In that case, we can largely control privacy and meet specific needs.
Is it possible to install automation on aluminium fencing?
Absolutely! Various automation mechanisms can be installed, suitable for hinged and sliding patio doors. These mechanisms allow for remote opening and closing of the fencing door, providing convenient entry and exit for vehicles and people, a feature with numerous benefits for daily use.
What should I choose, a rolling shutter or a shutter?
Several factors must be considered when deciding between a rolling shutter and a shutter. Shutter options include hinged or sliding types, with a frame surrounding their slats. Hinged shutters require free space to open, while sliding shutters require free wall space for sliding. Rolling shutters, which come in top-mounted or outer box configurations, don't require extra space and are usually operated by a belt. Larger rolling shutters can also be fitted with an electric motor for convenience.
It's important to note that when it comes to safety, shutters have an advantage over rolling shutter boxes due to their more robust frame supporting the slats. However, other considerations, such as space availability and ease of operation, should also be considered when deciding.
How should I maintain aluminium shutters?
Maintaining aluminium shutters is relatively easy due to the durability of the material.
Which colour would be best for my railings?
Ultimately, the decision should be based on your preferences and the advice of specialist decorators and/or architects. However, it's important to note that the process of colouring aluminium involves four different types, each with its benefits and considerations.
