Premium Aluminium Windows for Hubballi and Dharwad

AluK Home casement and sliding windows for new houses in Hubballi and older homes in Dharwad, with practical guidance on replacing frames. Specified from our Belagavi showroom, with site work arranged per project.

TWO CITIES, TWO HOUSE TYPES

Windows for a twin city with two different building stocks

Hubballi has the newer growth areas: Gokul Road, Navanagar, Unkal and Gabbur. Dharwad sits on higher ground, is a little cooler (April and May means near 35 C against Hubballi’s 40 C), and tends to have older houses where the question is often what to do with a wooden frame that has swollen and cracked.
New construction asks for a window specified at the drawing stage. Replacement asks something harder: whether the existing opening, plaster and lintel will take a new frame without damage. This page covers both. If you are choosing between window families first, start at our aluminium windows overview.

Casement or sliding: which AluK window fits

Casement windows hang on hinges and close against a seal on all four sides, which gives the tightest closure and a full opening for ventilation. Sliding windows run on a track and suit wide openings where a swinging sash would be in the way. Most Hubballi-Dharwad houses use both: casements in bedrooms and kitchens, sliding windows where the opening is wide.
The Infineo casement (C87K-CS NI) uses 65 mm profiles with a hidden sash, opens outward and has a standard sash of 800 x 1800 mm. For heat-conscious rooms, AluK’s 67IW thermally broken series takes glass up to 60 mm and lists an RC2 burglary class. For refurbishment, the 56IW series is described by AluK as suited to older windows.

Look inside the frame

Cut sections of AluK systems show what you are actually buying: chamber layout, glazing pocket, track and threshold.

67IW thermally broken casement

A 67 mm thermally broken series for high thermal and acoustic performance, with burglary class RC2. AluK recommends it for replacing old wooden and PVC windows.
AluK C87K-CS NI Minimal Infineo casement cross section

C87K-CS NI Minimal Infineo casement

What changes for windows in Hubballi-Dharwad

Replacing an old Dharwad frame

Pulling out a wooden frame can crack plaster and open gaps at the lintel. We look at the wall at measurement and tell you whether the new frame can be fixed to the existing opening or whether a fresh reveal is needed. Expect some plaster repair and painting to be part of the job, not an afterthought.

Dry heat and night ventilation

With April highs near 40 C in Hubballi and a late-February to early-June dry spell, windows that open fully and stay open at night do real work. Casements with a stay and a flyscreen let a room shed the day’s heat. Sliding windows open only half the width, so choose by what the room needs.

Monsoon wind on outward-opening sashes

July and August bring about 210 mm and 200 mm of rain. An outward sash opened in a gusty shower can be caught by the wind, so fit proper stays and friction hinges, and keep upper floors in mind. On a fourth-floor flat, ask how the sash is restrained and how it is cleaned from inside.

Plot houses near Unkal and Gabbur

Detached houses on newer plots usually have four exposed walls, so windows on every side take sun and wind. Ask for the elevations to be reviewed by orientation: slimmer, larger glass on the shaded north face, smaller or shaded openings to the west.

HOW TO DECIDE

Choosing between window types

Use these criteria before you look at colours or handles:

From enquiry to fitted windows

Photograph every opening

Send a photo of each window from inside and outside, with a rough width and height. For an older house, add a photo of the frame joint where it meets the wall.

Try the systems

Visit the showroom in Tilakwadi, Belagavi, to open a casement and slide a window yourself. Bring the elevation drawing or a phone photo of the plan.

Measure on site

Final sizes come from site measurement, which for Hubballi-Dharwad is arranged per project. Confirm coverage when you enquire, and see how we measure on our installation process page.

Fabricate and check

Windows are fabricated through certified AluK Home partners. You approve glass, finish and opening direction on a written specification before work starts.

Fit and hand over

Installation is arranged for your site and followed by a note on cleaning tracks, hinges and drain slots. If the wall needs finishing after removal of old frames, we say so in advance.

What to check when buying aluminium windows

Is it a system or an assembled section?

AluK describes system windows as designed, engineered and tested as a whole, while ordinary fabricated windows depend more on workmanship. Ask which one you are quoted, and for the section drawing either way.

What standard does the window refer to?

IS 1948:2024, Aluminium Framed Doors, Windows and Sliders, replaced the 1961 standards in June 2024. Ask your supplier what they claim against it. We do not claim BIS certification for AluK systems and would be wary of anyone who does without showing the certificate.

What is written about the finish?

AluK states Qualicoat-certified technology for its Signature Palette. Ask for the class and certificate for your exact colour, and whether a higher-resistance finish is on offer. Read the maintenance guide for what care the finish needs.

FAQ

Questions from Hubballi-Dharwad homeowners

What people in the twin cities ask before changing windows.
Usually yes, but it depends on the wall. Old frames are often built into the masonry, and removal can crack plaster. We look at the opening at measurement and say whether a new frame fits the existing reveal. Plan for plaster and paint repair around each window as part of the budget.
No. The showroom is the AluK Home Experience Center by Gruns Fenster in Tilakwadi, Belagavi, listed on AluK’s own showroom locator. Windows for Hubballi-Dharwad projects are specified from there, with site measurement and installation arranged per project.
Rattling usually comes from poor fixing or worn hardware, not the material. Casements close on seals all round, and multi-point locking pulls the sash tight. Leaks usually come from blocked drain slots or gaps at the wall joint. Both are checked at fitting and covered in the handover note.
Local fabricators list aluminium windows on directory sites, and ordinary sections are often cheaper than a branded system. The two are not the same product, so compare section drawings, glass build-up, hardware and who fits. Our price guide explains what drives the difference.
A thermally broken casement with coated double glazing, plus an external shade, is the usual answer. Make the opening sash large enough to purge heat at night. Avoid large west-facing fixed panes without shade.
Check your society’s rules before ordering, because a change to the facade appearance can need committee consent. We found no published city rule on this, so treat it as a question for your society or builder.
