Founded in 1927, RAL is a German institute that sets benchmarks in product colour design. Their RAL European colour management system standardises colours, coding them into 4 digits within a chart. The RAL colour, moss green RAL 6005, will always be a certain angle in the colour wheel with a specific lightness and saturation, for example.
This means that when customers select a RAL tone for windows or a door, they have a greater understanding of the shade. The system also means that companies, in turn, work effectively with colour tolerance and the amount of deviation between the specified finish and delivered product is excellently reduced.
At windows24.com RAL colours can be selected in our online configurator upon order. The selected tone is then applied to door or window frames during manufacturing using professional processes to ensure a particularly durable and high-quality finish. The exact coating methods used then differs depending on the material the product is made from.
uPVC windows, made from a modern, innovative material and featuring multiple internal chambers, have a selected RAL colour applied under high temperatures in a foiling process. This ensures secure bonding to the smooth surfaces and results in long-lasting, stylish tones.
The colour for aluminium windows or the external aluminium cladding of composite uPVC-alu or wood-alu windows, on the other hand, is applied via powder-coating. In this process the aluminium is first anodised to prevent it from oxidising before the powder coat spray technique is used to expertly add the selected colour. This technique will also offer lasting vibrance as well as excellent UV and scratch resistance.
When it comes to timber windows, alongside the different timbers to choose from and water-based varnishes available, the many RAL colours are then applied from the colour chart as a weather-resistant water-based paint or solvent with an acrylic base.
There is a wide range of RAL colour options available for our windows and doors. Similarly to colour application, the exact choice differs based on the frame's material.
For uPVC window colours, popular shades such as anthracite comparable to RAL 7016, grey comparable to RAL 7001, and basalt grey comparable to RAL 7012 are available, for example.
These are contemporary tones that can provide a smart contrast to lighter building façades.
The shades can be selected for the inside and outside of the uPVC product, or rather just for the exterior with white showing on the interior.
Alongside RAL colours, for uPVC windows standard timber decors are also available as are aluplast's innovative woodec and aludec coatings with their realistic textures that create an authentic-looking wooden or metallic surface.
At windows24.com wooden windows come with an almost limitless range of RAL colours to choose from, allowing customers to perfectly tailor products to their building style or interior design. Once the timber has been selected, whether dark black, anthracite grey, or a bright blue, the colour can be added in the configurator, where you will find an interactive filter and RAL search box.
Featuring powder-coated metallic exteriors, aluminium, wood-alu, and upvc-alu windows come with a range of different RAL colours, depending on the exact material combination chosen. Below are some of our customers favourite choices for the outside of the frame. To browse more, just head to the configurator today or contact us with any questions.
Once RAL colours have been selected for window or door frames, add-on options can be considered to beautifully finish the look of the final product. In the configurator, matching glazing bars can be added, for example, which break up the design, adding character and traditional charm while blending perfectly with the selected frame.
Other options then include windows sills, which come in different materials and high-quality finishes. For those looking to set a stronger statement, complementary roller shutters can then also be added in our configurator, coloured to ideally blend or contrast with new or existing windows and doors.
