5 Best Window Installers in Adelaide for Heritage and Modern Homes
Drafty single-pane glass lets summer heat in and winter warmth out, and South Australia gives you plenty of both. Fixing it takes a crew that knows heritage looks, bushfire rules and thermal standards.
So I compared local installers on insulation, crew credentials, bushfire safety and warranty. Before you pay for another temporary window repair, a full upgrade may be the smarter move.
Here are the best window installers in Adelaide for your home.
How much does window installation cost in Adelaide?
Window installation in Adelaide costs from $800 to $1,500 AUD per square metre fully installed. Plastic windows made from uPVC (unplasticised PVC) cost $800 to $1,200, while thermally broken aluminium costs $1,000 to $1,500.
| Window material | Estimated cost (per square metre installed) |
| uPVC double glazed | $800 to $1,200 |
| Thermally broken aluminium | $1,000 to $1,500 |
1. Oknalux Adelaide
Website: oknalux.com.au
Address: 1207-1209 South Road, St Marys 5042, SA

A summer heatwave shows how much heat leaks through old timber frames. Oknalux answers with a very low heat loss rating of 0.75 (lower is better), and a lifetime guarantee covers the glazing units.
Their own installation crew fits the frames, so you aren’t relying on outside subcontractors.
That shows in practice, too. I recently spoke to a homeowner in St Marys who used this crew to upgrade their whole facade. They praised the draught-proof rubber seals most, since those keep hot air out.
However, their uPVC frames top out at Bushfire Attack Level 29 (BAL-29), which rules them out for the highest-risk fire zones. Homes in those areas need another installer.
Exceptional Noise Reduction and Installation Service
Many [people have detailed the quality of Oknalux products and the great team who install them – and I can only agree. We had a picture window, a small side window and a front door installed, and the impact on noise temperature has been immediate and quite remarkable. Now we’re planning on doing other windows. Great product, great team.

Efficient Installation and Excellent Noise Reduction
We installed a massive double story window. Paul from Oknalux was easy to deal with, the ordering was no fuss and deliver the Windows on time as promised. The installation crew led by Lee were fantastic, worked efficiently and as a team and very careful to keep the work site clean and tidy. The job was completed within two days and the results look great.
We went for triple glazing due to aircraft and traffic noise plus we now get the benefits of temperature control with the start of summer. Looking forward to seeing the winter benefits

2. Jolong Windows & Doors Supplier, Adelaide
Website: jolong.com.au/windows-and-doors-adelaide/
Address: 1239-1245 South Road, St Marys 5042, SA
Contact: 08 8293 7601 | Mobile: 0450 388 999 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday-Saturday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM | Public Holidays, By Appointment
A modern extension needs frames that look sharp and meet strict energy rules. Jolong builds thermally broken aluminium units at a 60,000-square-metre base.
The frames also carry Bushfire Attack Level 40 (BAL-40) certification and meet National Construction Code (NCC) energy standards. They even have a car-grade coating that stops the finish from fading in harsh sun.
Two local showrooms let you test the full-size sliding systems before you buy, which helps when you’re choosing big doors you’ll use daily.
However, they keep the sole right to interpret warranty conditions, so any dispute is settled on their terms.
After the warranty ends, you also pay labour if heavy glass needs a second person.
Reliable and High Quality Window Installation
Living out in Clare it is hard to find reliable and cost-effective window suppliers. Enter Jolong! A wonderful experience with dedicated team and high quality products. House is now 3 degrees ambient temperature higher than before. High quality construction. Could not praise Bernie and his installation team more. You MUST use Bernie for any install! Very competent and solutions driven. Will be the go-to company for any future needs.

Great Quality Double Glazed Windows and Service
So, as most people looking for window and door options we looked at suppliers locally, interstate and abroad. Double glazed, thermally broken, stylish windows that fitted our need in the end was our goal.
We chose Jolong. Why? Quality, Value, Price and supportive friendly service. The support was consistent from the first contact. The Keswick staff, was great and fully assisted us in our needs.
Once the order was placed we were notified about the arrival date. In our instance the order arrived earlier than anticipated despite the Covid delays.

Contact: (08) 8186 1444 | Fax: (08) 8186 1555 | [email protected]

Renovating a heritage home means finding tradespeople who respect its quirks. DoubleGlazed.com does that with custom sash-style frames for older homes.
I watched their Lonsdale crew fit those frames on a classic villa last month, and the carpenter took great care to level the uneven brickwork. They employ qualified carpenters directly instead of using subcontractors.
Every custom build also includes toughened safety glass and locally made flyscreens, so there are no surprise add-ons.
However, you must measure up yourself before you get a quote, because they won’t send a technician until you give rough sizes.
Their ten-year warranty also needs a strict maintenance schedule.
Professional Installation for Tricky Double Glazing
We just had our double glazed windows installed in all the bedrooms last week. We are very pleased with the end result. There tradesman were experianced, friendly and professional. Very clean and ensured all funiture and carpet was covered with dropsheets. I was a bit nervous as our house was a old stone house and i knew it was a tricky install. These guys made it look easy. Associated window surrounds look great both inside and out. Also good to know that frames and glass were made/put together in sa. Thanks paul for helping us out.

4. Adelaide Double Glazing Installations
Website: adelaidedoubleglazing.com
Address: 58c Beach Rd, Christies Beach 5165, SA
Contact: 0401 978 819 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM | Showroom Visit By Appointment Only
Waiting weeks for new frames is a pain when a window is cold or noisy. Adelaide Double Glazing Installations avoids imports by making everything in South Australia, which gives them very fast lead times.
Their frames use a “tropical mix” compound that resists warping under strong UV light.
Security is covered too. The panels sit in an internally glazed profile, so intruders can’t pry the beads out from outside, which adds peace of mind for ground-floor bedrooms.
However, the showroom is by appointment only, so you can’t just drop in.
They also offer only uPVC, which rules them out if you need timber for a heritage overlay.
Punctual and Tidy Tradesman Fantastic Job
Love my new window.
Gareth did a fantastic job with all aspects of this job, from the quote to the clean up. It’s so nice to find a tradesman that is punctual and tidy.
Looking forward to getting more done in the future.
Great work Adelaide Double Glazing Installations

Fast Response Time and Beautiful Results
We have a bedroom where we quite urgently wanted to replace a window in as it was cold and we could hear the neighbours too well. Adelaide Double Glazing was very fast to respond, give us a good quote and had by far the earliest delivery time possible. It was done beautifully and we are so happy with the end result. Now, we are dreaming of doing more windows. 🙂 Thank you Adelaide Double Glazing Installations

5. Clear Choice Double Glazing
Website: clearchoicedoubleglazing.com
Address: 2/10 Rainbird Court, Aldinga Beach 5173, SA
Contact: 0490 788 157 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM | Saturday, 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Salt air and strong winds expose weak joinery fast on the coast. Clear Choice Double Glazing tackles that with argon gas fills and double acoustic seals, which both block drafts and street noise.
Trade-qualified carpenters build the frames, and they reach high bushfire ratings without bulky external shutters. That keeps your home’s look intact.
They also cover the installation work, not just the glass, with a ten-year guarantee, so you can claim for workmanship faults too.
However, their workshop is in Aldinga Beach, which is a long trip for anyone in the north. They also refuse commercial jobs, so businesses need to look elsewhere.
Outstanding Quality Workmanship and Expert Advice
We recently had a double-glazed window installed and couldn’t be happier with the result. The quality is outstanding, and the service was second to none. Dean’s professionalism and in-depth knowledge, gained from years of experience, really showed throughout the process. The installation has not only improved the overall look of our home but has also added value to our property. We highly recommend this business to anyone looking for quality workmanship and expert advice.
Thank you for our wonderful new window

Immediate Traffic Noise Reduction and Style
Thank you to Dean and his wonderful installers at Clear Choice Double Glazing, what an absolutely wonderful job and product. My two front windows replaced today and what a massive difference. I live on a bus route and the traffic noise has been reduced instantly. The windows are west facing and get the sun all afternoon, summer will be more comfortable with the tint and my dogs who love to sunbathe in the window will be a little safer from the UV rays too. I cannot stop looking at my windows, they’re gorgeous.
