Wood and Aluminum- an alliance for life. In wood/ aluminum windows and doors the advantages of these materials are perfectly combined.
The windows and doors play a very important role for the comfort in your home. They connect the interior with the exterior; let you enjoy the view regardless of weather and wind, function as magic boundaries between nature and safety. The way a window unites one world with the other, the wood/aluminum window of Gaulhofer unites the advantages of these highly different materials.
Interior: wood, which offers a pleasant atmosphere, where you can feel comfortable and relaxed.
Exterior: a strengthening layer of spaced aluminum cladding connected with the window, virtually indestructible and just as technically perfect, as it is visually impressive.

Bad weather? Good news:

A protective aluminum skin fitted to the wood profile at a spacing to allow thermal
expansion, makes a Gaulhofer window extremely resistant to the effects of
weathering and practically maintenance free. The design, carefully thought out
right down to the smallest detail, ensures reduced water formation due to condensation, unhindered water run-off and diffusion of water vapor. The water runoff openings are discreetly concealed.

How our windows stay in shape:

Through the fitting of corner angles and subsequent lock-beading, the joints for
the individual profiled parts are sealed forever. This means that the wood/aluminum window retains its shape even when subjected to the most
extreme challenges from wind and weathering.

Our contribution to a more beautiful world:

Delicate softline glass-retaining profiles for the interior and modern, slim soft-edge profile design on the aluminum shell lend your windows an especially elegant character. In addition, you can choose from all the colors in Nature’s paintbox: over 180 colors, for interior wood and exterior aluminum cladding including additional cladding treatments of 4 deceptively real wood, 10 anodized finishes and 2 metallic décor effects. And for the wood surfaces there is the wonderful clear glaze, through which the unique appearance of the finest spruce and larch wood is shown off to best effect. Wood and aluminum — a bond for life
