Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about Jansen Steel Windows
Q: What are Jansen steel windows, and why are they special?
A: Jansen steel windows refer to window systems made from steel profiles manufactured by Jansen AG, a Swiss company renowned for high-quality architectural steel systems. These windows are special because they combine the slender aesthetics of traditional steel windows with modern engineering. Jansen steel windows have extremely thin frames (thanks to steel’s strength) which maximize glass area and light. At the same time, they meet today’s performance needs – offering thermal insulation, security, and longevity. In essence, you get the best of both worlds: the classic beauty of steel fenestration and the comfort and efficiency of a modern window. Architects value Jansen windows for their style and versatility, using them in luxury homes, historic renovations, and upscale commercial projects where ordinary windows wouldn’t suffice.
Q: Are Jansen steel windows thermally broken and energy-efficient?
A: Yes – most Jansen steel window systems (such as the Janisol series) are thermally broken. A “thermally broken” window means that the metal frame is constructed with an insulating barrier (thermal break) between the exterior and interior parts, drastically reducing heat loss. Jansen pioneered thermally insulated steel profiles to ensure steel windows can be just as energy-efficient as aluminum or wood windows. For example, Jansen’s Janisol windows have a glass-fiber reinforced plastic separator that achieves U-values around 1.5 W/m²K with double glazing, and even better with triple glazing. This meets or exceeds typical energy code requirements in Europe and the US. Additionally, thermally broken steel frames help eliminate condensation on the interior. So, despite being made of steel, Jansen windows deliver excellent energy efficiency and comfort, suitable for modern low-energy or Passive House buildings. (Note: Jansen’s “Economy” series is non-thermal for interior use, but all exterior-grade systems like Janisol, Arte, etc. include thermal breaks.)
Q: What is the difference between Jansen Janisol and Janisol Arte?
A: Janisol and Janisol Arte are both thermally insulated steel profile systems from Jansen, but they serve different design goals. Janisol is the standard series, designed for broad use in new builds and renovations where a balance of slim profile and robust performance is needed. Janisol profiles have somewhat larger frame dimensions to allow bigger glass units or higher structural loads, and they come in many variants (including doors, tilt-turn windows, etc.). Janisol Arte, on the other hand, was specifically developed for replacing old steel windows with super-slim sightlines – it has an ultra-thin profile width to mimic classic steel window designs from the early 20th century. Janisol Arte is perfect for heritage projects or any design that demands the thinnest possible frame. Technically, Janisol Arte profiles are narrower and a bit shallower in depth than standard Janisol, and might support slightly smaller maximum sizes due to their slimness. However, Janisol Arte still uses a thermal break and modern multipoint locking, so you get nearly the same performance as regular Janisol, just in a more delicate form. In summary, choose Janisol for universal applications (or larger openings) and Janisol Arte when profile slimness is the top priority – such as in historic window refurbishments or sleek divided-light patterns. Often, the two systems are used complementarily: for instance, Janisol Arte for fixed and casement windows, and Janisol for matching doors or larger tilt-turn units in the same project.
Q: Will steel windows rust or require a lot of maintenance over time?
A: Modern steel windows are very durable and low-maintenance. Jansen steel profiles are made from high-grade steel that is usually hot-dip galvanized or zinc-coated to prevent rust. After fabrication, Portamet finishes each window with a strong powder-coat paint in your chosen color, which seals the steel against moisture and corrosion. The result is a finish that can last decades with minimal upkeep – typically just occasional cleaning. Unlike old uncoated steel frames that could corrode, today’s galvanized and coated steel windows have excellent corrosion resistance. In fact, steel is often used in coastal or harsh environments when properly protected. We also offer stainless steel versions of Jansen profiles for the ultimate in corrosion resistance if needed. As for maintenance, steel windows do not warp or swell, so you won’t be planing edges or adjusting them seasonally as can happen with wood. The hardware (hinges, handles) may need standard lubrication every year or two, and the seals/gaskets should be kept clean, but that’s about it. Many steel windows installed in historic buildings 80–100 years ago are still operable today (after restoration), and with modern coatings, the lifespan is even longer. Portamet stands behind the longevity of our windows – with proper care, your steel windows will retain their strength and beauty for generations.
Q: Can Jansen steel windows be customized in size, style, and finish?
A: Absolutely. One of the great advantages of steel windows is the high level of customization available. Portamet builds each Jansen window to order, so we can tailor dimensions and configurations to your exact needs. Whether you require an oversized fixed pane, a unique shape (round, arch, gothic arch, etc.), or a specific mullion grid pattern, we can fabricate it thanks to steel’s flexibility and strength. Jansen profiles support a variety of window types – from inward-opening tilt-turns, outward casements, hopper vents, to French doors and pivot windows – giving you creative freedom in design. We also accommodate custom muntin designs or simulated divided lites to match historical layouts or create new geometrical patterns. In terms of finish, you have a broad palette: we offer any RAL color or custom colors in durable powder-coat (matte, satin, or gloss). You can also opt for special finishes like patinated corten steel (weathering steel) for a rustic look, or polished stainless steel for a sleek modern aesthetic. The hardware (handles, etc.) comes in various styles and finishes (brass, stainless, black, etc.) to suit traditional or contemporary tastes. Glass options are equally flexible – clear, tinted, decorative, triple-glazed, etc., including high-performance low-E and even integrated blinds if required. In short, Jansen steel windows are often made-to-measure products. Our team will work with you to ensure every specification – from profile type to color and accessories – aligns with your vision. The result is a truly bespoke window that enhances your project’s architecture while delivering all the benefits of a proven engineered system.
