Specialising in:

• Aluminium thermally broken and non-thermally broken windows and doors

• Frameless glass shower screens
• A recent milestone, the Bert Newton Retirement Village, exemplifies SMB Windows’ commitment to enhancing Australian communities with cutting-edge and sustainable living solutions.

The Bert Newton Retirement Village is a large-scale project consisting of a commercial building and three residential buildings. With over 230 apartments and more than 1,000 windows and doors, SMB Windows’ involvement spanned two years, during which they provided a high degree of customisation to meet specific design, environmental and energy standards.

SMB prides itself on using innovative designs to meet project needs. For the Bert Newton Retirement Village, they provided AWS (Architectural Window Systems) thermally broken windows and doors equipped with double-glazed LowE glass (AGG Insulglass LowE Plus® – Grey), ensuring excellent thermal performance and energy efficiency. The doors also included automatic sliding systems, enhancing accessibility and ease of use for residents.

“Our windows and doors are fabricated locally, which not only supports the local economy but also ensures quality control and sustainability,” said Dawoodjee.

The use of LowE glass in combination with thermally broken frames allows for reduced heat transfer, maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures without excessive energy use.

“Our highly efficient 100mm Residential suite has one of the best thermal values on the market for standard windows and doors. It’s perfectly suited to ensure that residents enjoy optimal indoor temperatures while reducing energy costs,” explained Juzer Dawoodjee, Sales and Project Director at SMB Windows.

In the commercial building, the company installed thermally broken windows, chosen to enhance energy efficiency and align with the architect’s design intent, and accommodating diverse wall cladding types.

“To ensure that the installation of windows and doors aligned perfectly with the architectural plans, we engaged in regular design meetings with the project architect and Ryman’s design team,” said Juzer. This close collaboration helped prevent delays, allowing SMB Windows to integrate their products smoothly.

One of the unique design challenges for SMB Windows, was the installation of a glass sky light that connects two of the buildings.

“The glass canopy not only gives the building a distinctive look but also allows ample natural light to reach pedestrians underneath, providing shelter from the rain and other elements,” said Juzer. SMB’s design incorporated these functional requirements without sacrificing aesthetic appeal, ensuring the canopy contributed to both the form and function of the development.

Through careful design, collaboration, and an emphasis on high-quality, energy-efficient materials, SMB Windows has made a substantial contribution to the Bert Newton Retirement Village. Their expertise in creating tailored window and door solutions has helped ensure that residents will enjoy a comfortable, energy-efficient living environment.

“This development truly showcases our commitment to quality, sustainability, and innovation. We’re proud to have contributed to such a meaningful project,” said Juzer.
