Aluminium windows in Tangier
In Tangier, a window has to withstand the east wind and salty air while keeping the city’s noise out. We choose profile, seals and glazing according to the floor and exposure of your home.
What we do in Tangier
Aluminium windows that close well, keep noise out and age well under salt and humidity.
We make aluminium windows and French windows in our workshop and install them: casement, tilt-and-turn or sliding, with double glazing. Each window is sized for its exposure: an upper floor facing the sea does not have the same needs as a ground floor on a courtyard.
What you gain
- Good air, water and wind tightness
- Low upkeep: aluminium doesn’t rot or swell
- Colours and finishes to choose from
Technical details— for professionals and the curious
- Qualicoat Seaside
- A quality label for powder coating (paint baked on in an oven) on aluminium exposed to marine air.

Why GMT Design in Tangier
Tangier sits at the entrance to the Strait of Gibraltar: the east wind (the Chergui), sea air and humidity are present all year round. On the hills such as Marchan, Malabata or the Cap Spartel road, exposure to wind and sea spray is strong; in the city centre, it is street noise that weighs most. The right choice of profile (the aluminium frame), glazing and treatment depends on that exposure, not only on the style you are after.
What we take into account in Tangier
- Strong exposure to the east wind and sea spray on the city’s hills
- Acoustic glazing worth considering near the main roads of the city centre
- Marine anti-corrosion treatment and A4 stainless fixings as standard
Frequently asked questions
Which joinery should I choose against the east wind in Tangier?
A reinforced profile, calculated for the exposure of your home (upper floors and hillside sites are the most exposed), with a marine anti-corrosion treatment, durable seals and suitable glazing. We size everything during the study.
Why choose aluminium for a window in Tangier?
Aluminium doesn’t rust, doesn’t rot and isn’t affected by humidity. With a treatment suited to the coast, it ages well under wind and salt, which matters in Tangier.
Do I need to provide plans?
No. Photos, a few dimensions or a simple description are enough to get started. If you have plans or a specification document (C.P.S.), attach them: it speeds up the study.
What does the quote include?
Detailed item-by-item pricing: manufacture, glazing, installation. Every line is explained, with no silent substitutions.
How much does an aluminium window cost?
It depends on the range, the glazing and the dimensions. As a ballpark, sliding doors in our Strugal range start at around 2,700 DH/m² incl. VAT installed; the final quote follows the study of your project.
