RATO Glass supplied a complete aluminum window and door package for a private residence project in Burkina Faso. The project included multiple floors of customized aluminum windows, sliding doors, single doors, double swing doors, and exterior glass railing systems.
As a residential building located in a hot climate region, the project required durable aluminum frames, better thermal performance, and reliable glazing solutions suitable for long-term daily use. To meet these requirements, the window and door system used thermally broken aluminum profiles together with Low-E insulated glass units.
The final installation shows a modern black-frame appearance, large daylight openings, and a clean architectural style suitable for residential villas in Burkina Faso and other West African markets.
According to the project window and door schedule, the residence used a combination of different opening types to match each room function.
* Single-hung aluminum windows for bedrooms, bathrooms, toilets, hallways, staircases, study rooms, and living areas.
* Double sliding aluminum windows for bedrooms, bathrooms, and living room areas.
* Fixed glass panels combined with operable window sections.
* Low-E insulated glass for better solar control and indoor comfort.
* Aluminum sliding doors for living rooms, dining areas, study rooms, patios, and balcony access.
* Single aluminum glass doors for toilets, bedrooms, and exterior access points.
* Double swing front doors opening inside.
* Frosted glass doors for bathrooms and private areas.
This combination allowed the project to balance ventilation, daylight, privacy, and outdoor access.
For this Burkina Faso residential project, the main frame material was thermally broken aluminum profile. This type of aluminum system is designed to reduce heat transfer through the frame, which is especially important for residential buildings in warm regions.
The glass options included:
This glass structure includes two glass panels separated by a 9 mm air spacer, with Low-E coating to help reduce heat transmission.
This option provides a wider air space and can offer improved thermal insulation depending on the project requirement.
For the exterior railing system, laminated glass was used to improve safety. The PVB interlayer helps hold the glass together if breakage occurs, making it suitable for balcony and rooftop railing applications.
From the project site photos, the installed aluminum doors and windows use a black frame finish, creating a strong contrast with the white and grey interior walls. The large sliding doors connect indoor rooms with outdoor terrace areas, while the single-hung and sliding windows provide natural light and ventilation.
The project also includes glass railing on the rooftop and balcony areas. The railing system uses vertical metal clamps fixed onto the parapet base, with clear laminated glass panels installed between the posts. This design keeps the exterior view open while maintaining a clean modern appearance.
* Large sliding door openings facing terrace areas.
* Single-hung windows installed in bedrooms, toilets, staircases, and smaller rooms.
* Aluminum glass doors with frosted glass for privacy areas.
* Exterior glass railing installed around rooftop and balcony spaces.
* Multiple floor levels requiring different window and door sizes.
For residential projects in Burkina Faso, aluminum windows and doors must perform well under heat, sunlight, and frequent daily use. Thermally broken aluminum profiles are a suitable choice because they provide better thermal separation than standard aluminum profiles.
Key advantages include:
The thermal break helps reduce heat transfer from outside to inside, which is useful for homes in hot climates.
The slim black aluminum frame gives the residence a clean and contemporary look.
Aluminum profiles are suitable for long-term use and can resist deformation better than many traditional materials.
The system can be manufactured into sliding doors, single doors, single-hung windows, double sliding windows, fixed panels, and balcony door systems.
When combined with Low-E IGU glass, the window and door system can help reduce solar heat gain and improve energy performance.
The aluminum window and door package was used throughout the project, including:
Single-hung and double sliding windows were used to provide ventilation and natural light.
Large sliding doors and larger window panels were used to create open views and easier access to outdoor areas.
Frosted glass doors and smaller windows were used to protect privacy while maintaining light transmission.
Single-hung windows and fixed glass sections were used to bring light into transition spaces.
Laminated glass railing was installed to provide safety and keep the exterior view open.
The finished installation gives the residence a modern architectural appearance with black aluminum frames, large glass openings, and clear outdoor views. The use of thermally broken aluminum profiles and Low-E insulated glass makes the system more suitable for the local climate in Burkina Faso.
