Design intent
A fixed light has no opening sash and can be composed alongside separate ventilation openings.
Aluminum Window Systems / Design configuration
Fixed Aluminum Picture Window
A fixed picture window prioritizes the view and a clean elevation. Plan ventilation elsewhere and coordinate glazing access, support and perimeter weathering for the opening.
AI-generated design concepts illustrate possible configurations. Confirm the exact construction, finish and hardware in your project specification.

Designed around the opening
A clear, uninterrupted view
A fixed light has no opening sash and can be composed alongside separate ventilation openings.
Configuration choices
Single or divided glazing, Frame color, Adjacent opening-window coordination.
Planning priority
Confirm glass size, handling access and the location of ventilation and maintenance access elsewhere.
Define the assembly
Construction, clearly separated.
Frame, leaf or panels, finish and hardware must be confirmed as a compatible assembly.
01
Window frameFrame profile, fixing zone and connection with the building opening.
02
Glazed unit / sashFixed or opening arrangement, glass build-up and retention method.
03
Operating hardwareHinges, rollers, stays or louvre controls appropriate to the selected system.
04
Seals & drainagePerimeter seals, sill drainage, flashing interfaces and finishing responsibility.
Schematic component relationship. This is not a manufacturing section, dimensioned drawing or performance certificate.
Technical specification
A specification that fits
your project.
Work through the dimensions, construction and building interface below. Final values are recorded against your selected assembly and approved drawings.
How we approach product evidence| Specification | Details to coordinate |
|---|---|
| Frame and sash layout | Fixed, casement, sliding or louvre arrangement |
| Opening and wall interface | Rough opening, reveal, fixing and drainage |
| Glazing and safety brief | Build-up, appearance and location requirements |
| Hardware and ventilation | Handles, restrictors, screens and reachable operation |
| Performance requirements | Project criteria and applicable system documentation |
| MOQ / lead time | Quantity, configuration and order schedule |
| Performance reports | Requested project criteria and applicable model scope |

Plan the building interface
Resolve the installation details early.
01 / Survey
Confirm the opening.
Record sizes, wall thickness, finished floor level, handing and adjacent construction. Identify who checks the site measurements.
02 / Coordinate
Approve the interface.
Resolve the frame fixing, threshold, leaf clearances and hardware with the actual building detail before production authorization.
03 / Receive
Protect and inspect.
Plan unloading, package checks, protected storage and a record of any damage. Use the agreed instructions and support route.
Before you specify
Questions worth asking
How is this configuration tailored to my project?
Use the design direction and configuration choices as a starting point. Send your opening schedule, preferred finish and intended use so the exact construction, dimensions, hardware and supply scope can be reviewed and set out in writing.
What dimensions can I order?
Send the opening measurements, intended use and site constraints. The proposed size must be reviewed with the actual frame, leaf or panel construction and hardware. Available dimensions are confirmed for your selected configuration in the project quotation.
Can the finish match another door in the project?
Share the desired color or wood-look direction and request coordinated physical samples. Different substrates, surface processes, orientations and batches can create visible differences.
What is included in the quote?
The written quotation should list the frame or track system, leaf or panels, glazing, hardware, seals, operator where applicable, accessories and packaging. Each inclusion, option and item supplied by others must be confirmed.
Who handles installation and adjustments?
Installation and responsibility for the opening survey are agreed for the project. Use the approved drawings and product-specific instructions; no general worldwide installation service is implied.
How are lead time and delivery confirmed?
Timing, packaging, trade terms, unloading and requested spare parts are set out for the agreed order after specification review. No fixed production or transit period is assumed.
