Import European doors, windows and facade systems for African developments and contractors.

The opportunity

Manufacturers supply aluminium, PVC and timber window systems, entrance and security doors, sliding and folding glazed systems, and complete facade solutions with the associated hardware.

Why the African market works for this product line

Mid and high-end residential developments increasingly specify sealed European systems for security, acoustics and dust exclusion. Commercial towers need certified facade performance that local fabrication rarely provides on its own.

Who European manufacturers want to meet

• Aluminium and glazing fabricators
• Facade contractors and curtain wall specialists
• Developers and main contractors
• Security door retailers and installers

What to check before you import doors & windows

• Profile systems can be supplied for local fabrication, cutting freight substantially
• Wind load and coastal corrosion requirements must be stated at design stage
• Glass is often sourced locally while hardware and profiles come from Europe
• Installation quality determines performance – budget for installer training
