Black Powder Coated
Strong definition and clean contrast around glass. Black works particularly well where aluminium is intended to become a visible architectural feature.

Surface, Light
and the Lines
Between.
The frame defines the outline. The glass changes the light, privacy and feeling of the space.

around the space.
Start with the frame, then match the glass. You do not need to make the final decision before speaking to JCB; the right choice depends on the opening, the architecture and how the installation will be used.
01 / MATERIAL STUDYRead the material.
Read the material.
See the detail.
Every frame, pane and threshold contributes to how the finished installation feels in the space.
01
The frame sets the rhythm.
Black and charcoal add definition. White recedes. Bronze warms the composition.
02
The glass sets the atmosphere.
Clear opens the view. Arctic softens it. Tinted glass changes the tone and reflection.
03
The detail makes it feel finished.
Opening size, sightlines, sill depth and how the product is used all shape the final result.
Charcoal Powder Coated
A contemporary dark neutral that provides definition without the stronger contrast of black.
White Powder Coated
A clean and versatile finish suited to a wide range of architectural styles.
Bronze
A warmer aluminium finish suited to properties using earthy, traditional or warmer colour palettes.
Powder Coated Aluminium
Powder coating applies a durable finished layer to the aluminium surface, providing the final colour and a consistent architectural appearance.
It also contributes to the low-maintenance characteristics that make aluminium well suited to doors, windows and other building applications.
Displayed colours are indicative. Final finishes should be confirmed before manufacture.
SAFETY GLASS OPTIONS
Glass Shapes the Feeling of a Space.
The right glass balances natural light, privacy, appearance and thermal performance. Think about what the room needs first, then choose the finish that supports it.
Light
Keep a space bright and open with clear or low-reflective glazing.
Privacy
Soften sightlines while allowing daylight to move through the glass.
Tone
Use grey, silver, bronze or textured glass to shift the atmosphere.
Performance
Consider Low-E where reducing heat transfer is part of the brief.
THE OPTIONS
Start with what the space needs.
All displayed options are indicative. Confirm the final glass specification and suitability with JCB before manufacture.
01
Clear - 6.38 mm
For applications where natural light and an unobstructed view are priorities.
02
Arctic
Provides increased visual privacy while still allowing light through the glass.
03
S10 Silver
A silver-toned glass option that creates a more reflective architectural appearance.
04
S10 Grey
Introduces a grey tone to the glazing for a darker, more contemporary appearance.
05
S10 Cool Bronze
A warmer bronze-toned glass option that can complement bronze and other warm architectural finishes.
06
S10 Cool Grey
A cool grey-toned option that works particularly well with modern, darker aluminium frames.
07
Low-E - 6.38 mm
Low-emissivity glass designed to help reduce heat transfer through the glazing and improve thermal performance.
THE MATERIAL
Why Aluminium?
Strong for Its Weight
Aluminium provides useful structural strength while remaining comparatively lightweight.
Resistant to Rust & Corrosion
Aluminium does not rust in the same way as conventional steel, making it suitable for long-term architectural applications.
Low Maintenance
Powder-coated aluminium does not require the regular repainting associated with many traditional frame materials.
Versatile
Different configurations, dimensions and finishes allow aluminium to work across doors, windows, shopfronts and custom architectural applications.
Recyclable
Aluminium can be recycled and reused, making it a highly recyclable building material.
