How to Select the Right Aluminium Window Colour | Worongary Homes
Worongary Renovations – Don’t Forget the Frames
Worongary is known for its leafy acreage blocks, family homes, and hillside properties with wide views across the Gold Coast. Renovations are common here — kitchens are modernised, bathrooms updated, façades rendered, and decks added to make the most of outdoor living.
But one detail that often gets overlooked is the aluminium window frames.
Frames aren’t just a structural element. Their colour determines how your home looks from the street, how interiors flow, and how old and new parts of a renovation tie together. Choosing the right shade can transform a property without replacing the windows themselves.

Why Windows Look Black From the Street
From outside, glass nearly always appears darker than any other element. Whether tinted, reflective, or clear, it reads as black. That’s why black frames are so effective — they visually disappear, letting the glass take centre stage.
Black frames: Create a sleek, modern effect, framing views like artwork inside.
White or silver frames: Stand out more but blend beautifully with white shutters, curtains, or pale façades.
For Worongary homes with large expanses of glass, this choice becomes even more noticeable.

Matching Frames to Interiors
Worongary properties often feature light interiors with curtains, plantation shutters, or neutral tones. In these homes, white or silver frames work seamlessly. They sit quietly in the background and match existing finishes.
For more contemporary or architectural renovations, black frames are unbeatable. They create contrast against light walls, sharpen views, and bring a high-end feel to acreage-style living.

What We See in Worongary
Based on years of projects across Worongary and the Gold Coast:
99% of our work is black or white.

These shades are often chosen by homeowners looking for something slightly different but still safe, timeless, and cohesive with roofs, gutters, and fencing.

How Colour Choice Shapes Cohesion
The right colour doesn’t just improve windows — it unifies the entire property.
Black frames: Disappear into the glass, avoiding clashes with render, cladding, or brickwork.
White frames: Brighten façades and suit Hamptons-inspired or traditional homes.
Silver frames: Tie into modern finishes with stainless steel, greys, or light palettes.
Monument, Surfmist, and Ironstone: Link windows with roofing, guttering, or fencing for consistency across the property.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
1. Following fads – Bright or unusual colours may date quickly.
2. Ignoring inside views – Frames should work as well indoors as out.
3. Forgetting shutters and curtains – These often dictate whether white or black will look best.
4. Overcomplicating – Simplicity (black, white, neutral greys) almost always wins.
