Anodising

Anodised finishing is a highly popular choice for architectural projects, and is a durable and colour fast technology that offers an alternative to powdercoating. 

As for colours and film thicknesses, there are plenty of options: Silver, in 12 and 25 microns. Bronze in light, medium or dark, 12 and 25 microns. Black, 25 microns only. Champagne, in 25 microns only. 

For properties in coastal, industrial or other corrosive environments, 25 microns is recommended, and may even be required to qualify for a warranty. (Note: the anodised coating has a 10-year warranty for 12 micron anodising, and 20 years for 25 microns.)

Note: when you are choosing your aluminium joinery colour, always assess the colour in natural light using an aluminium colour swatch. We are able to provide you with the colour swatch samples upon request. 
Anodising is unavailable in Residential ThermalHEART®.

Colour Selection Tips

  • For a joinery colour that complements the house cladding it is common to choose a tone a few shades up or down from the cladding colour
  • Choosing the same colour as the house can give a very clean look, especially in white or cream tones
  • Remember, however, that the colour of joinery you choose now may limit options in the future if you want a change of house colour
  • Contrasting joinery colours are popular and darker natural tones, silver and black are often chosen
  • Dark or black joinery against a light coloured house, especially in a plaster finish, can look very sharp and attractive
  • Matching the joinery colour to the roof or fascia for a unified look is also popular
  • It is important to remember that the joinery colour impacts on the inside view and so can influence interior colour schemes. A good option can be to choose a neutral joinery colour that preserves flexibility for interior selections e.g white, cream, grey, taupe, black or silver
  • Consider the environmental and site conditions of your property and ensure that the powdercoat product you choose is fit for purpose
  • When you make your final colour selection, use an aluminium colour swatch and assess it in natural light.
