Aluminium windows Mindarie - specified for life beside the marina
Mindarie is one of the most exposed residential pockets in Perth's north: the marina, Claytons Beach and the limestone ridge behind it put most homes within a few hundred metres of breaking salt water. That exposure is the first thing we talk about when quoting aluminium windows Mindarie home owners ask for - because at this distance from the ocean, finish and hardware selection matter as much as the window style.
Custom Windows manufactures made-to-measure frames with marine-grade powder-coat options and corrosion-resistant hardware for exactly this environment. Aluminium itself does not rot or warp in salt air, but rollers, locks and fasteners are where coastal windows fail first, so we specify them deliberately for front-line homes.
Windows built around the view
The other constant in Mindarie briefs is the view. Homes on the ridge and around the marina precinct are designed outward, and we manufacture accordingly: wide sliding windows, full-height fixed panels and awning windows that stay open in a stiff sea breeze without slamming. Because every frame is made to the opening, mullion positions can be planned so they do not cut across the sightline to the marina entrance.
- Marine-grade powder-coat finishes for front-line coastal exposure
- Corrosion-resistant rollers, locks and fixings
- Wide-format sliders and fixed panels for ocean and marina views
- Double glazing to soften westerly wind noise
- Servicing for salt-affected hardware on existing frames

Kitform aluminium windows Mindarie projects can specify coastal-ready
Our kitform (CKD) window kits are also available with coastal finish and hardware upgrades, which suits Mindarie owner-builders and builders working the remaining infill lots: pre-cut sections travel compactly and are assembled on site when the build is ready for them. Configuration options are on the kitform products page.
Caring for windows this close to the ocean
Whatever is installed, front-line Mindarie homes benefit from a freshwater rinse of frames and tracks every few months and periodic hardware servicing - our window servicing team handles worn coastal rollers and locks regularly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which frame finish handles the salt air around Mindarie marina best?
For homes near the marina and Claytons Beach we recommend discussing marine-grade powder-coat finishes and corrosion-resistant hardware, because standard coastal exposure at Mindarie is harsher on frames and rollers than in inland suburbs.
Q: Can you make large sliding windows to capture Mindarie ocean views?
Yes. Wide-format sliding and fixed-panel combinations are one of our most common Mindarie requests, manufactured to the opening so view lines stay clean and mullions sit where you want them.
Q: Do you offer aluminium kitform windows Mindarie owner-builders can use?
Yes. Our CKD kitform window kits include pre-cut sections and assembly guides, and coastal-appropriate finishes and hardware can be specified for Mindarie kits at quoting stage.
Q: How often should coastal window hardware be maintained in Mindarie?
In direct salt-air exposure a freshwater rinse of frames and tracks every few months, plus periodic servicing of rollers and locks, significantly extends hardware life. Our window servicing team can help with worn coastal hardware.
