What Makes The Perfect Window?
We all love a room with a view and your windows should make the most of it. But the perfect window offers so much more than a way to admire your outlook. The perfect window, combined with double or triple glazing, should keep your home warm during the coldest Scottish winters. It should provide the highest level of security and protect your home and your family from the potential threat of break-ins. It should also be precision-engineered from sustainable materials so that your view to the outside world doesn’t cost the Earth. And, the perfect window should also look beautiful.
EKCO Architectural Doors and Windows is a family owned Scottish company supplying and fitting a range of premium aluminium clad timber windows . Our aluclad windows are made from sustainable Scandinavian timber clad in aluminium and combined with double or triple-glazing which means they’ll not only be energy efficient they’ll need little, if any, maintenance. All our windows are fitted with the Yale Encloser system to deliver the highest levels of security and the frames can be powder coated in a colour of your choice to suit your taste.
To give our customers an even wider choice of windows, EKCO have created subsidiary companies such as Wolf Line which specialises in energy efficient timber and aluclad windows, and Spitfire our luxury aluminium entrance door and patio door specialists.
Here at EKCO we only provide the highest quality timber, aluminium and aluclad windows in Scotland and are proud to partner with such well respected manufacturers as Internorm, Origin and Norwood.
All of our chosen partner companies manufacture aluclad windows with some of the thinnest sightlines available which means less frame and more glass. Norwood aluclad windows are also made using sustainable Scandinavian timber which is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). Whichever windows you choose you can rest assured that they will not only look beautiful but will be manufactured to the highest possible standards of security, energy-efficiency and durability which will last for decades to come.
Scotland is a country of contrasts. But, no matter if you live in a traditional home in the heart of Glasgow or Edinburgh, or a Passive House in the Highlands we will have the perfect aluclad windows for you. Take a look at our range of EKCO windows or browse our Wolfline website for inspiration.

Scotland’s architecture is an iconic blend of the old and the new. From Georgian crescents and Victorian terraces to contemporary townhouses and sleek penthouse apartments, each building tells a story — and the windows are a key part of that narrative. Whether preserving heritage charm or making a modern design statement, choosing the right windows in Scotland means considering both function and aesthetic.
The country’s variable climate, conservation requirements, and desire for energy efficiency all play a part in influencing window choices. With their durability and minimalist elegance, aluminium windows are fast becoming the preferred solution for homeowners looking to strike that balance between timeless appeal and modern performance.
In Scotland, where frosty winters and variable weather are common, double glazed windows are not just a luxury — they’re essential. The benefits extend beyond warmth; they improve noise insulation, enhance security, and reduce energy costs.
When fitted within high-quality aluminium frames, double glazing becomes even more effective. These windows are designed with thermal breaks — a feature that prevents cold bridging and retains heat within the home. This is particularly important in older properties where insulation may not be optimal.
For homeowners undergoing renovations or building from scratch, opting for double glazed aluminium windows can instantly boost the comfort and value of a property.
The rise in popularity of aluminium windows across Scotland is easy to understand. Lightweight yet incredibly strong, aluminium allows for elegant, contemporary window profiles that can withstand the often-unpredictable weather.
These windows offer a clean, streamlined appearance that complements both traditional and modern homes. More importantly, they’re built to last. Unlike wood, aluminium won’t rot or warp over time. And unlike older plastics, it won’t discolour or become brittle.
The demand for premium finishes and performance has led to increased innovation in this sector — with local specialists like EKCO known for delivering exceptional installations that reflect both personal style and technical precision.
The EKCO Window is available in three styles – casement windows, bat windows and gables. Our casement windows are an industry-unique external and internal flush design to suit any style of home. Our bay windows add a beautiful contrast to the casement, and the striking gable-end will flood your home with light.
Casement windows remain one of the most popular window styles in Scotland due to their versatility and practicality. Hinged on one side and opening outwards or inwards, they allow for excellent ventilation and are ideal for a variety of settings — from traditional cottages to modern flats.
Aluminium casement windows offer a sleek alternative to timber or uPVC, with ultra-slim frames that maximise glass area and let in more natural light. Whether you want a single large casement or a combination of fixed and opening units, aluminium allows for precise customisation to suit your space.
With smooth-opening mechanisms, secure locking systems, and a choice of hardware finishes, aluminium casement windows combine everyday usability with architectural elegance.
Aluminium is a sustainable material. Strong and robust, our window frames need little, if any, maintenance during their lifetime.
Every EKCO Window is installed with the renowned Yale Encloser locking-system for complete security and peace of mind
Warm when it’s cold and cool when it’s hot, the EKCO Window features an advanced triple-weather seal to keep out the worst possible weather. If this isn’t enough, we even offer an upgrade to Aerogel® – a unique insulation material used in spacecraft and spacesuits.
The EKCO Window is perfect for both the home and business. Due to the sustainability of aluminium they may even be suitable to replace irreparable windows in some listed buildings whereas UPVC is not.
Choose from over 150 colours to suit the style of your property and your personality

Aluminium window frames come with a long list of advantages that make them stand out in today’s market.
Durability and Longevity
Aluminium resists the elements better than most materials. It doesn’t swell, crack, or rot, even in moisture-rich environments like those across Scotland.
Slim Sightlines
Thanks to its structural strength, aluminium allows for slimmer frames and larger panes of glass. This means more daylight, clearer views, and a modern aesthetic.
Low Maintenance
A quick wipe-down with soapy water is typically all that’s needed to keep aluminium windows looking sharp. No painting, sanding, or staining required.
Thermal Efficiency
Modern aluminium frames are fitted with polyamide thermal breaks that reduce heat transfer and boost energy efficiency.
Sustainability
Aluminium is one of the most environmentally friendly materials available. It’s 100% recyclable and retains its quality even after multiple cycles.
home’s design and your lifestyle needs.
Casement Windows
Classic and highly functional. They open outward or inward and are perfect for most room types.
Fixed Windows
Ideal for large feature panes or rooms that don’t require ventilation. They maximise natural light and views.
Tilt and Turn Windows
Multi-functional windows that can open slightly for ventilation or swing inwards for easy cleaning and emergency access.
Sliding Windows
A space-saving option that suits more contemporary spaces. They’re perfect for rooms that open onto balconies or terraces.
Bay and Bow Windows
These windows create a dramatic architectural feature and provide panoramic views. Aluminium makes them sleeker and less bulky than traditional materials.
One of the strengths of aluminium as a window material lies in its flexibility. Aluminium windows can be manufactured to suit a vast range of dimensions, from compact bathroom windows to expansive glass walls.
Because the material is structurally sound, even large windows can be made with minimal framework, allowing you to enjoy uninterrupted views and plenty of light. This makes aluminium ideal for both standard and bespoke applications.
Whether you’re replacing existing windows or designing from scratch, custom sizing is typically offered as standard with aluminium frames — ensuring a perfect fit for your property.
Gone are the days when aluminium was only available in silver or grey. Today, you can choose from a huge palette of colours and finishes to suit any architectural style or personal taste.
Popular Choices Include:
Anthracite Grey: A contemporary favourite that works beautifully on both modern and period homes.
Jet Black: Sleek, bold and striking, perfect for minimalist aesthetics.
White and Creams: Clean and traditional, ideal for blending with stone or render finishes.
Earthy Tones: Browns, greens, and bronzes to match natural materials or heritage homes.
You can also select dual colours — one shade for the interior and another for the exterior — for complete design flexibility. Textured finishes, metallic effects, and even woodgrain foils are also available to provide that extra touch of individuality.
