We’re pleased to highlight the recent installation of our APL Architectural Series joinery in Te Arai.

This suite features high-performance aluminium doors and windows with striking aesthetic appeal. Designed for larger openings, these products maximise views across Te Arai while being built to withstand the increased exposure to the elements typical of elevated projects like this one.

At Windowmakers, we provide tailored joinery solutions to meet the functional and aesthetic requirements of any build, which is why we're the trusted partner for builders' windows and doors across Auckland. Keep us top of mind for your 2025 projects: https://windowmakers.co.nz/contact

Looking for a more efficient window and door installation? The Centrafix™ method is a BRANZ appraised and Codemark Certified alternative to the standard E2/AS1 installation.

By recessing the window unit into the building wall, Centrafix™ aligns insulation elements—wall, window frame, and double glazing—to prevent cold air from circulating around the frames and minimise thermal bridging. The integrated sill system ensures weathertightness, airtightness, and thermal efficiency, exceeding NZBC standards.

As one of the first APL fabricators to adopt Centrafix™, we’re fully equipped for your next project.

Yesterday marked a big milestone with the arrival of New Zealand's largest Twin Saw, the Model RS 600, at our machining centre. Its size required a 3.5-ton forklift and pallet trucks for installation!

This powerhouse maximises precision and efficiency, underscoring our commitment to quality.

This morning, we had the pleasure of hosting the teams from PlaceMakers Wairau, PlaceMakers Cook St & PlaceMakers Albany for a training session at our facility.

They received a behind-the-scenes look at our factory and machining centre, learned about industry standards, saw how our windows and doors are manufactured, and even got hands-on with the process! 👏

It was a fantastic opportunity for our customers to deepen their understanding of aluminium joinery—a great example of the added value that comes with partnering with Windowmakers.
