Progress loadingโฆ ๐ง๐๏ธ
You can see where we started โ no windows, no paint, almost raw structure.
Now the first floor is coming alive:
โ๏ธ Windows installed
โ๏ธ Porch areas painted
โ๏ธ Mid section plastered and ready for finishing
Meanwhile, the 2nd floor still tells the story of where it all began.
Step by stepโฆ we work, we transform, we deliver.

Thermal Break vs Non-Thermal Aluminum โ Practical Proof
Recently, I shared a post explaining thermal break profiles and why they matter. This short demonstration makes it visual ๐.
When both profiles are exposed to extreme cold (-26ยฐC), the non-thermal break aluminum frosts over, while the thermal break profile remains close to room temperature โ a clear 20ยฐC difference.
What this shows is thermal resistance, not just cold performance.
๐ In hot climates like ours, the principle works in reverse: Thermal break profiles slow down heat transfer from the outside, helping interiors stay cooler, improving comfort, and reducing dependence on fans or air-conditioning.
Same aluminum.
Different internal structure.
Very different performance.
Smart design always shows its value โ whether in cold or heat. ๐

Installing Windows & Doors After Plastering
As promised, letโs talk about installing windows and doors after plastering.
This approach is often blamed for tight fittings and compromised installations โ but the real issue is usually when fabrication happens, not the method itself.
Problems arise when windows are fabricated strictly from architectural drawings, without verifying the final plastered opening sizes on site.
Plaster thickness, uneven dressing, and site tolerances can easily reduce openings, leading to:
โ Tight or forced installations
โ Alignment challenges
โ Compromised performance
However, when final site measurements are taken after plastering and dressing, many of these risks disappear.
โ
Clean finishing
โ
Accurate fabrication
โ
Proper fitting without stress
๐ The key takeaway:
The problem is rarely when you install โ IT'S WHEN YOU MEASURE.
Good glazing is about coordination, not shortcuts.

Installing Windows & Doors Before Plastering
One of the questions we get asked a lot on site is this:
Should windows and doors be installed before plasteringโฆ or after? ๐ค
Thereโs no one-size-fits-all answer โ but TIMING, MEASUREMENT, and COORDINATION matter more than most people realise.
Letโs start with installing before plastering ๐
When windows and doors are installed before plastering (with margins left to be dressed later), it allows installers to:
โ
Work with the true masonry opening
โ
Achieve better alignment and leveling
โ
Secure frames properly without forcing
โ
Avoid size conflicts caused by plaster thickness
This method works well because fabrication is done against real, existing openings, not assumptions on drawings.
Of course, frames must be properly protected during plastering โ otherwise, finishing trades can cause damage to the windows and doors that have been installed. There are be the need to cover them properly during plastering, painting and other finishing works.
๐ Expect the next post to tackle installing after plastering โ and when it actually works best.

Aluminium conducts heat โ thatโs a fact. โ๏ธ
Thermal break profiles solve this by interrupting the heat path, making aluminium windows more comfortable, especially in hot climates.
Ideal for:
๐ Homes
๐ข Offices
๐ Sun-exposed faรงades
Smart glazing starts with smart profiles.

We were privileged to handle the aluminium sliding window installations for the top two floors of this four-storey multi-purpose complex at Akrofi-Christaller Institute of Theology, Mission and Culture.
These images show the post-installation stage before painting and the final look after painting.
Same windows ๐ช.
Different feel โบ๏ธ.
Quality glazing completes the picture ๐ผ๏ธ.

Under the stairs.
Very narrow opening.
No room for error.
A custom frameless glass door was the ideal solution โ neatly hinged to the wall and fully functional with handle and lock.
Smart glazing makes small spaces work better.
