Cost: aluminium façade cladding
Compare fabricated and installed facing with its subframe, fixings and junctions. Identify formats, cuts, corners and finish. Standard layouts and custom pieces cannot be compared through an undetailed area price.
Editorial update on 18 September 2026
Compare fabricated elements
Record composition, specified thickness, formats, finish and quantities. Separate standard and special components. Clarify included samples and fabrication drawings.
Add structure and formed details
Identify subframe, fixings, corners, returns and opening details. Compare removal and preparation. Do not substitute zinc or steel assuming identical installation and cost.
Define site work and handover
Check transport, handling, access, scaffolding, protection and waste. Separate options and exclusions. Agree reservations, warranty documents and cleaning instructions.

Frequently asked questions
Do all aluminium panels have the same fire performance?
No. Request composition and product and system evidence.
Is anodising always more expensive?
Compare equivalent offers; no universal percentage is assumed.
Is cladding silent in rain?
It depends on the assembly. Define acoustic requirements beforehand.
Can it go over existing insulation?
Assess support, anchorage and new-system connections.
Can aluminium screening act as a balustrade?
Not because of its material alone. That function needs explicit design and evidence.
