Metal Framed Windows - Stunning Steel Windows From the PINKYS Team
What is a window?
At the most basic level, it's glass placed inside a frame, usually with hinges attached somewhere that allow the window to open or close.
But that description is boring - it does nothing to convey the true artistry that can go into window design. It doesn't speak to style - only function - and it certainly isn't representative of the metal framed windows that the PINKSY team creates. We take the same approach with our windows as we do our doors:
Create magical pieces that are a great choice for your project.
Why Choose a PINKYS Window?
Before we start talking about the PINKYS window range - and the features they offer - we need to answer a key question:
Why choose metal windows?
Narrow Sightlines for Unobstructed Views
Imagine that you're relaxing in your sitting room and decide to glance out at the garden. The view is superb. Or, at least it would be if you didn't have to deal with a bulky window frame creeping into your eyeline.
We call that frame-to-glass ratio a window's sightline and the thicker it is, the worse your view will be.
So, what does this have to do with PINKYS' windows?
Inspired by the minimalism of Californian design, we've created custom windows that feature narrow metal frames. Glass is the highlight - as it should be - and you'll never have to worry about a sightline being so obtrusive that you can't enjoy the view outside your home.
Create the Right Fit for Your Home
Speaking of your home, there is such a thing as architectural fit. If there wasn't, then buying a window or door would be easy - pick any old thing and use it to fill an opening.
As you already know, it's not that simple. If your home has a modern aesthetic - for which clean lines and minimalism are key - a bulky wooden window isn't going to look right. A metal-framed window is. Something sleek and stylish that projects the aesthetic of your home as ably as the home itself, ensuring you have the right fit for whatever styles you're looking to create.
Ideal for Residential and Commercial Applications
Let's switch focus to the functional:
Are PINKYS metal windows suitable for residential or commercial purposes?
The answer is both...within reason. Our windows shine when placed on a home. They bring a touch of our Californian heritage to your aesthetic - though not so much that it starts to feel gaudy - and are subtle enough to mesh with most styles.
On the commercial side, a PINKYS window can achieve the same effect - a subtle style that is perfectly indicative of your brand. They're about communicating style. Modernity. A dedication to showcasing that your business has veered away from the traditional mindset and toward something stunning.
Lower Costs for Maintenance
What do aluminum, steel, and iron all have in common that places them above wood as a window frame material?
Durability.
We don't mean durability in terms of their pure strength - though that is also a benefit - but rather, durability in terms of maintenance. Wood chips. It rots over time and the paint used to cover it needs to be reapplied regularly to ensure the frames look good no matter what elements buffet them.
With a metal-framed window, you massively reduce your maintenance burden. They're not maintenance-free - no window frames are - but the occasional wipe and polish without having to worry about the integrity of your frame material is far preferable to the prospect of fighting a losing battle against nature, as you do with wooden frames.
Sample PINKYS Collection of Custom Metal Windows
You now have a better sense of the beauty that a PINKYS metal-framed window installation can bring to your home or business. Now, let's move on to something equally important - a sampling of the window configurations that are available from our team.
Casement Windows
In so many cases, the classic ideas with modern twists are still the very best you can do for your home. That's the case with our casement windows - gorgeous windows that feature a hinge on the side and come with a crank you can use to open or close them.
A simple twist of that crank is all you need to allow air into your home.
As for the modernistic twist, check out the PINKYS Air Window 0V 2H Dual Single Casement range - a pair of casement windows bordering a larger fixed window that's perfect for filling large spaces.
Awning Windows
Casement windows often aren't the best choice for those who live in warm locations that also experience a lot of rainfall. You may have discovered this yourself. An opened casement window is an invitation for the heavens to send water streaming into your home.
Enter awning windows - windows that are hinged at the top and open in such a war that the window itself serves as a barrier against rain. If you want the option of being able to open your windows no matter what the weather is doing, awning windows are the appropriate choice.
French Casement Windows
What's the difference between a French casement window and a regular casement window?
It's all in how they open - the French option gives you a pair of windows that open at the same time from the center. In other words, you still push the windows out to open them up. But instead of one window hanging from a side hinge, you have two, with ventilation judged by how large you want to make the gap in the middle.
Fixed Windows
We'll keep this one simple:
For all of those times that you might need a window that doesn't open - such as when you're using glass for decorative purposes rather than functionality - you need a fixed window. There's no worrying about hinges, cranks, or handles here. The window stays fixed in place at all times.
