Schüco / Aluminium windows

AWS 65

A versatile 65 mm Schüco platform for residential and commercial architecture. AWS 65 supports slim sightlines, concealed fittings, multiple opening types and integration into façade systems.

VERIFIED PARAMETERS

A rational system depth for many architectural tasks.

AWS 65 is often appropriate where a thermally insulated aluminium window is required without moving to the deeper 75 mm platform. The final choice follows a review of Uw, vent size, glazing and wind load.

AWS 65 covers many configurations, so manufacturer figures should not be transferred to every window automatically. The final result depends on profile combination, size, glass and hardware.

ARCHITECTURAL OPTIONS

A flexible platform for residential architecture.

01

Slim face widths with concealed fitting options

02

Inward and outward opening configurations where applicable

03

Barrier-free balcony-door solutions as a system option

04

Integration with Schüco façade and door systems

ENGINEERING CHOICE

65 or 75 mm is a project decision.

We compare dimensions, thermal performance, glass, fittings and architectural profile width. On many projects AWS 65 is the more rational solution both technically and commercially.

01

Thermal performance

We calculate the actual window Uw together with glazing and spacer specification.

02

Vent geometry

Glass weight, hardware and allowable dimensions are reviewed for the selected opening type.

03

Installation detail

Frame position, support, perimeter sealing and exterior drainage are coordinated as one junction.

BUILT PROJECT

AWS 65 in a BIFORIUM project.

At the Estepona residence AWS 65 works together with ASE 60 and a laminated solar-control glazing build-up.

HOW TO READ THE DATA

Six values that shape the result.

A catalogue maximum is not the rating of every fabricated element. Classes depend on size, opening scheme, glazing, hardware and the tested configuration.

WINDOW SCHEDULE

Send dimensions and performance requirements.

We will review opening type, glazing, thermal performance, fittings and installation, then confirm whether AWS 65 is sufficient or a different platform is justified.
