Schuco Windows Product Information

For homes or commercial buildings, Schuco windows provide a solution for design, performance, long service life and where specialist window functions are required. All Schuco windows are designed by the system company and expertly fabricated by a nationwide network of experienced aluminium companies.

Choosing Schuco windows for any building project provides a top-brand aluminium window, meets current Building Regulations and is tested to the latest security, insulation and weather performance requirements.

Types of Schuco Windows.

The range of Schuco windows is substantial. The right choice of windows very much depends on the type of building, residential or commercial and the specifications the intended windows must meet.

Such are the excellent performance specifications of Schuco windows, there is even a window version providing top-end RC2 security as an open window – where most security tests are carried out on a closed and locked version.

The Schuco windows range therefore is chosen on design and the required performance and opening function, then having a choice of over thirty different window variants. The frame depth required also defines many of the Schuco aluminium windows with the varian name often denoting the profile depth.

Several different configurations and options offer a broad range of window solutions. These include.

  • Varying frame depths of 50mm, 65mm or 70mm, therefore, providing products for replacement or new build products.
  • A comprehensive range of Schuco Hardware creates manual, electronic or automated windows and opening systems.
  • Very narrow face widths to windows if required providing slimline windows and especially useful for contemporary homes.
  • Specific systems for residential or commercial applications. As a result, windows of different specifications work in any type of building.
  • High acoustic and insulated window products, help with special installations such as houses in noisy areas.
  • Windows with “concealed” vent options similarly provide a unique aesthetic in modern buildings.
  • Bevelled or rounded window systems provide products for homes such as older buildings.

70mm window system

The 70mm Schuco aluminium window offers excellent thermal insulation featuring additional internal insulation and foams. Besides great thermal performance is a more comfortable internal environment.

This window system also integrates with doors if required.  Moreover virtually any type of opening method is available. For instance, top hung, side hung, tilt and turn bottom hung or double vent arrangement. A comprehensive suite of profiles provides windows with a contoured or flat appearance.

 65mm Window System

The 65mm Schuco System offers slimmer windows that are available as highly insulated or standard windows with a wide range of profiles for modern window solutions.  These offer a frame depth of 65mm that are ideal for renovation or new build work.

schuco windows for curtain walling and facade glazing

Schuco already provides a range of curtain walling solutions and many of those require opening window ventilation. For curtain walling, Schuco windows are designed with specific frame types, designed to fit within the numerous curtain walling mullions and transoms.

Windows for climate, comfort and individual requirements

Schuco, as a systems company has a range of windows designed exclusively for numerous building functions.

The AWS 75 PD VV.SI is a side-hung opening window designed for architectural glazing and buildings comprising floor-to-ceiling glazing throughout. This window is available significantly taller than regular side hung opening windows and provides ventilation where required without having to open large sliding doors or use the climate control system where fitted.

Where a home or commercial building requires specific climate control, shading and ventilation, Schuco AWS 120 CC.SI windows are essentially a composite design comprising an integrated internal blind within a multiple glass unit. The purpose of this is not only to meet Passivhaus standards but also shading, sun protection and privacy. Unlike integral glass blinds widely used in doors and windows, AWS 120 CC.SI has a reduced visible blind when fully retracted and even comes designed with elements giving access to inspection and cleaning of the vents when required.

Providing ventilation with thermal insulation, Schuco has the AWS 90 VV.SI+ – a window system providing natural air flow. With no loss of thermal insulation, AWS 90 VV.SI+ suits modern apartments built with curtain walling or larger windows, allowing the window vents to stay open, where other window designs would require fully opening side or top hung windows.

With modern homes needing minimal sightlines, AWS 75 BS.SI+ is a hidden vent window system making windows look seamless and transparent without the visible overlapping opening vents of regular windows. Designed to open inwards as tilt and turn, bottom hung open inwards or side hung open in, AWS 75 BS.SI+ meets the requirements of minimal building designs whilst still providing an opening window option.

Schuco Window handles and hardware

Instead of generic window hardware, these windows use system-specific products. Specifically, the Schuco hardware comes designed for the product as well as universal across the entire product range.  Besides high quality, this hardware enables instant identification as a Schuco window.  Every hardware component suits both manual and electronic windows.  Importantly, it also matches well to matching sliding, folding or entrance doors.  As a result, end users benefit from matching colours and aesthetics throughout the home.

I contacted Nick @ ATS for guidance on what aluminium sliding door systems would be suitable for an opening in an extension that is going to be both wide and tall. He came back really quickly with very detailed and incredibly helpful advice. He is clearly extremely knowledgeable about the systems on the market and their respective features and capabilities. If you’re feeling a bit lost by the overwhelming range of choices out there, I’d definitely recommend contacting him.

After a lot of research to find doors that would meet our unusual size requirements and feeling increasingly uncertain about the best way to spend our small budget, I stumbled on the ATS website, and I'm so glad I did! I contacted ATS to request advice and Nick promptly replied with a wealth of information, providing us with options and relevant contact details. I only wish I'd found them sooner!

I've been so confused about how to achieve the look I'm after, and going round in circles with various window/door companies, trying to get away from the huge chunks of plastic currently around my windows. I didn't expect an email to a company found through a Google search to really help - but I was desperate, so I tried. I'm SO glad I did. Finally I have clear explanations from ATS of where I've been going wrong, exactly what I'm looking for, and a list of local companies that might be able to provide it! The response has excelled my expectations and I feel as if I'm finally inching closer to a home with which I'll be happy and comfortable: thank you.

It is rare that I write reviews, however after my very positive communication with Nick - enquiring about suitable slim sash aluminium windows for my project, I felt that a review was definitely warranted. I can reinforce the many positive reviews posted so far, Nick was very quick to respond, providing comprehensive detail, with excellent independent advice.In summary, great service, thank you Nick.

I’ll definitely make sure I mention Aluminium Trade Supply to anyone I encounter looking for a fenestration solution 🙏🏼

We are looking to replace some old UPVC patios doors with aluminium ones. The ATS website is a great source of advice in an area where clear information is sorely lacking. Having used the website, I then followed this up with a number of specific questions relating to our search, and Nick came back very quickly with clear, detailed and very useful advice.I have been very impressed with both the website and with Nick's advice. My only regret is that I didn't come across ATS before replacing various windows in 2021 - I'm sure it would have saved me a lot of grief and money! Thanks again Nick.

My experience with this firm was exceptionally good and this is notalways the case as a female, dipping a toe into technical waters.I was spoken too with courtesy and at a level that helped me consolidate what was needed .On top of that I was given a list of companies and places where I could obtain the type of product I needed.I could not thank them enough and would certainly go there again and reccommend others do too.
