Plastic windows - vs. windows with aluminum cladding

Can they keep up price-wise

They were among the most expensive window offers for me. However, the surcharge from white/white to colored/white was only between 10 and 15%. 35 sqm of windows (including one lift-and-slide door) incl. electric shutters and installation between €28,000 and €31,000 (colored/white), security standard RC2N

Can they compete on price with typical manufacturers such as Internorm?

Since I consider several other manufacturers good enough for white windows and Gealan is, as far as I know, unique for colored windows and therefore would only compete as "apples against pears" (then of course with foil finishers), I cannot say anything comparative on this. Personally, I like fair prices and tend to exclude discount providers. Internorm is one of those where I can believe that the quantity allows the price. But I have by no means handled products from all manufacturers to have a qualified and comprehensive market overview. As a manufacturer, I was only interested in customers, not competitors. I was still involved in the decision "to become a dealer instead of remaining a manufacturer," but shortly after that, the business also ended—I was called too late, and unfortunately, business consulting is a craft, not magic.

We are renovating our house built in 1977 and want to do everything only once. We have aluminium windows from Schüco AWS90 SI, exterior DB703, interior white.

It was VERY difficult to get these AWS90 SI windows; all metalworkers / window companies apparently only make the AWS75 SI (at least where I live in Lower Saxony)!

Since we are doing the renovation step by step, we first replaced the windows upstairs. The hard-to-get AWS90 SI were sourced from Austria, delivered, and installed by our local metalworker.

Now we have the problem that the company in Austria still has our windows in their program, but our special colour DB703 is no longer available to order, and the AWS90 SI windows can only be ordered from a certain square meter quantity.

Now we have the problem that we have to take the AWS75 SI for our front door and the remaining windows on the ground floor because we cannot get the AWS90 SI anywhere!

In the basement, the AWS75 SI will be installed.
