Classic Range // Double Hung Window
Introduction
Carinya has many visible advantages over alternative products in addition to its obvious aesthetic qualities. These include:
- Specifically designed to accommodate screening within the head and sill to deliver that clean professional finish not available with many competitor products.
- The Carinya attention to detail includes bump stops top and bottom to prevent frame damage.
- Full perimeter weather piles reduce air and water infiltration.
- A choice of lockable or latchable handles are available.
Hardware
All Carinya double hung window sashes feature corner blocks in all four corners of the sashes. These blocks make the sash more rigid, reducing twist and movement. This reduction in movement increases the performance of the window by reducing opportunities for air, water and dust infiltration.
These proprietary Carinya corner blocks also interact with the balances in both the top and bottom sashes to provide a stable and secure window.
The spring balances come in a range of lengths and spring strengths to suit a wide variety of different window heights and sash weight. Combined with an adjustable balance friction foot this ensures that your custom made window will operate smoothly for many years to come.
Specially designed finseals are fitted all around both sashes. These seals act as insulation to prevent drafts, dust, light and other contaminants coming in from outside through the edges of the windows.

Energy Efficiency
The Carinya Collection of aluminium framed windows and doors has been specifically designed to be environmentally friendly, reflecting Carinya’s commercial market heritage, where thermal and acoustic performance are often critical.
Of all building materials including glass, timber and masonry only one material is 100% recyclable – Aluminium.
Unlike many aluminium windows, Carinya has been designed for all major forms of eco-friendly glazing options without any alteration to the frame or any unsightly add-ons.
Carinya frames are designed for eco-friendly Low E glass, high thermal and high acoustic performance 10.5mm glazing. To maximise the energy efficiency of your glazing discuss your project with a specialist Carinya Dealer and/or your architect or designer.
Remember the three most important issues for achieving maximum energy efficiency in a home are:
- Orientation – always try and have living areas facing north with seasonal shading.
- Insulation.
- Window quality and performance.
