Aluminium Windows Price List 2026: From approx. €350/m²

How Much Do Aluminium Windows Cost in 2026 – Quick Answer

The price of aluminium windows in 2026 in Europe starts from approx. €350/m² for systems with a thermal break (Aluprof MB-86, Yawal TM-77HI) and ranges up to approx. €460–€600/m² for passive systems (Aluprof MB-104 Passive, U_w from 0.53 W/m²K). In practice, a standard double-sash window measuring 1465×1435 mm costs from approx. €720, and a 3000×2200 mm terrace glazing costs from approx. €3,370.

Installation costs are added to the joinery price: approx. €70–€90/m² for standard installation and approx. €100–€120/m² for "warm" layered installation (vapour-permeable tapes, load-bearing brackets). Aluminium windows are on average 60–90% more expensive than PVC windows of the same dimensions, but they feature narrower frames, greater rigidity, and a lifespan of 40+ years.

Aluminium Windows Price List 2026 – Most Popular Sizes

Indicative net prices, standard RAL colour palette, double-glazed unit (MB-86/TM-77HI) or triple-glazed unit U_g=0.5 (MB-104), perimeter hardware, warm edge spacer. Excludes transport and installation. Valid for 2026.

Aluminium Window Price per m² – What Affects It

Pricing per square metre is more indicative for aluminium than for PVC, as the profiles are thinner and the actual glass surface area is larger. Below is a breakdown of rates for 2026:

• Window systems with thermal break (MB-86, TM-77HI, Ponzio PE 78N): approx. €350–€430/m²
• Passive systems (MB-104 Passive, TM-90SI): approx. €460–€600/m²
• HS doors / large-format sliding doors: approx. €490–€745/m²
• Mullion-transom facades (MB-SR50N): approx. €290–€395/m²
• Shop fronts and cold structures (without thermal break): approx. €200–€270/m²

7 Factors That Significantly Change the Price

1. Profile System (±45% Impact)

The difference between MB-86 and MB-104 Passive is 30–40% of the price, with an improvement in U_w from 0.8 to 0.53 W/m²K. If you're building an energy-efficient home or applying for grants, the passive version pays for itself through reduced bills and qualification for incentive programmes.

2. Glazing Unit (±35% Impact)

Double-glazed U_g=1.0 is the baseline. Triple-glazed U_g=0.7 adds +22%, and U_g=0.5 with a warm edge spacer adds +35%. Soundproofed glass 42–46 dB adds 40–70%, and laminated P4A (ground floors, patios) adds 25–45%.

3. RAL Colour and Finish (0% to +30% Impact)

Colours from the standard palette (RAL 7016 anthracite, 9016 white, 9005 black) are included in the base price. Non-standard RAL colours add +8–12%, DecoRal textures and wood-like finishes +18–25%, anodising +20–30%, and a dual-colour version (different internal and external colours) +10–15%.

4. Burglar Resistance Class (RC) (RC2 to RC3) (from +8% to +25% Impact)

RC2 is standard in our offer. RC3 with P4A glass and reinforced strike plates adds +15–25%, which significantly extends the time needed by an intruder from 3 to over 5 minutes.

5. Size and Division (±20% Impact)

A sash larger than 1.2 × 2.4 m requires heavier hardware and reinforcements — the price per m² increases by 10–20%. Conversely, a large fixed glazing unit is 25–35% cheaper than the same area that can be opened.

6. System Manufacturer (±15% Impact)

Aluprof and Yawal are established European market standards. Ponzio can be 5–10% cheaper, while Schüco and Reynaers are 15–25% more expensive for comparable parameters.

7. Region and Logistics (±12% Impact)

The biggest differences are seen in the costs of installation and transport of large-sized glazing units. In major European cities, installation rates can be 10–15% higher than in rural or less developed regions.

Aluminium vs. PVC Windows – Cost Comparison

Simple conclusion: for standard openings in a detached house, PVC wins on price, but if you're planning large glazing units, HS doors over 3m, a facade with narrow frames, or a commercial building, aluminium is the only sensible choice. More details in the article Comparison of PVC and Aluminium Windows.

How Much Does Aluminium Window Installation Cost

• Standard installation (anchors/dowels, foam, silicone): approx. €70–€90/m²
• "Warm" layered installation (vapour-tight + vapour-permeable tapes): approx. €100–€120/m²
• Installation in the insulation layer (load-bearing brackets): approx. €145–€180/m²
• Removal of old joinery: approx. €20–€35/unit
• HS doors (sash weight 200–400 kg, crane or 4 people required): approx. €420–€815/set
• External aluminium sills: approx. €20–€40/linear metre

Example: A 160 m² house with 8 Aluprof MB-86 aluminium windows and one 3×2.2m HS door would cost approx. €10,700–€12,100 net for the joinery and approx. €2,200–€2,800 for "warm" installation with removal of old joinery.

Grants and VAT – How Much You Can Realistically Save

Aluminium windows qualify for the same grant programmes as PVC, provided they meet the requirement of U_w ≤ 0.9 W/m²K (for vertical windows, EN 14351-1 standards):

• Energy efficiency programmes: Various regional and national schemes may offer funding for window joinery in comprehensive renovation projects – MB-86 (0.8) and MB-104 (0.53) typically meet the threshold, whereas cold systems without a thermal break do not.
• Tax relief for energy-efficient renovations: Many European countries offer tax deductions for expenses related to thermal modernisation, potentially reducing your taxable income or offering direct rebates.
• Reduced VAT rates: A reduced VAT rate (e.g., 5-10% instead of standard 19-23%) often applies to the purchase of windows when installed as part of a renovation project in a residential building, provided both supply and installation are on a single invoice. For supply only, the standard VAT rate usually applies. For an order of €11,600, savings could reach approx. €1,740.

Aluminium Window Prices in Cities and Regions

The price of the joinery itself is similar across Europe (we manufacture centrally), but transport and installation rates vary. Indicative surcharge compared to the national average:

• Major capital cities and metropolitan areas: +10–15% on installation
• Large regional cities: +8–12%
• Medium-sized cities: +5–8%
• Rural areas: average national level or -5–10%

Which Aluminium System to Choose

• Aluprof MB-86 (U_w 0.8): a versatile choice for a detached house – good insulation, slim profiles, reasonable price.
• Aluprof MB-104 Passive (U_w 0.53): for passive and energy-efficient homes, premium investments, exceeds the requirements of grant programmes.
• Yawal TM-77HI (U_w 0.9): proven for large dimensions, HS/HST doors, and shop fronts.
• Aluprof MB-SR50N (U_w 1.1): for mullion-transom facades and curtain walls in public buildings.

What to Avoid When Buying Aluminium Windows

1. "Cold" systems without a thermal break in heated rooms – a U_w of approx. 3.0 W/m²K means condensation and no eligibility for grants.
2. Quotes without specifying the system and U_w value – "aluminium window" is not a parameter. Always demand the system name (e.g., MB-86 HI+) and the U_w value for the entire window, not just the glass.
3. Saving on the installation of large-format HS doors – poorly installed 300 kg doors can warp within a year, and repairs cost more than professional installation.
4. Lack of a warm edge spacer and thermal bridges at the threshold – the most common source of condensation in aluminium windows.
5. Dark colours without Cool Colors coating on south-facing facades – anthracite can heat up to 80°C, which can strain seals on large fixed glazing units.
