Project availability for windows and doors

It can be hard to choose the perfect windows and doors for your project, especially when some companies might not have the capacity, or delivery network to support your needs. That’s why we’ve put together this blog explaining the jobs we’re able to collaborate on, to hopefully save you time and confusion. We know construction projects can be stressful and that you want to find the perfect partner to work with you every step of the way.

We know we’re not the best fit for every project and that’s why we carefully determine which projects we specialise in. In our case, we supply new build projects such as multi-residential developments, new homes, townhouses, and light commercial projects such as schools and offices. But there are a few more factors to know about. So continue reading to see if we’re the perfect fit for your next job.

Renovations, retrofit double glazing, and replacement windows

We do not supply the retrofit or replacement window segment of the market however, there are companies which specialise in this area, and we can give you their contact details for these types of projects. Our factory is designed and set up for larger projects, where window and door units are manufactured in a custom-built facility for particular large-scale projects enabling us to work to the construction programme to keep projects on schedule. 

Each project involves a carefully planned timeline, and our systems and manufacturing processes are designed for the new build market meaning we are unable to supply individual or low-volume orders. 

So if your project is a renovation, where should you look? Fortunately, within our industry experience, we have some great options where to get your new windows and doors. While we are focused on larger projects, there are companies like The Double Glazing CoFairview, and Homerit who are specialised in retrofit & replacement windows. That means they’re well-practised in renovations and are prepared for the variable nature of your project.

One-off window and door units

Our preferred projects are those with at least ten units, which means we won’t take on projects with one-off windows or doors, as our factory is set up for larger project runs.

So if your project only requires one or two units you may find our friendly staff recommending you to another provider in your region. In that case, we recommend looking for a company that can help you with your project such as NZ Windows or Altus instead because they are specialised in supplying one-off windows for smaller projects.

Is UNO Windows a fit for your next project?

You might be wondering, what types of projects do we take on? In a nutshell, we specialise in larger-scale, modern developments, including new build homes, multi-residential projects, and light commercial buildings.

Our strength lies in our end-to-end production capabilities, which allow us to manufacture, transport, and deliver a high volume of aluminium windows and doors efficiently and accurately. Because we manage the entire process—from design to installation—we work best on projects that require consistency, precision, and high performance.
