MHB Steel Windows

Steel window systems for projects where fixed glazing, opening function, profile language and the wider architectural elevation need to be considered together. Royal Design Marbella represents MHB across the Costa del Sol and helps project teams review the openings, available drawings and the appropriate MHB route.

A window is not selected only by its dimensions. The way it opens changes the architecture.

MHB steel windows are considered around the relationship between fixed glazing, operable elements and the steel language of the wider elevation.

The starting point is therefore the actual project: which areas remain fixed, where ventilation or access is required, how the window should operate and how each opening relates to the doors and surrounding façade.

Different openings require different movement routes.

MHB separates its steel window range into fixed and operable configurations. These renders help make the movement logic visible before the final project arrangement is defined.

The individual window should be reviewed as part of the complete elevation.

MHB offers different steel window and profile routes for contemporary, classical and project-specific architectural contexts.

The useful decision is not simply which window looks right in isolation. It is how fixed and operable elements work together across the building.

Fixed areas Identify which parts of the elevation remain permanently glazed
Opening route Review the function required from each operable window
Profile route Consider the appropriate MHB profile family in the context of the architecture
Project brief Drawings · Openings · Glazing · Defined requirements

The applicable profile system, opening route and configuration should be reviewed against the requirements of the individual project.

Steel across the elevation

A window system can establish the rhythm of the entire façade.

Repeated steel lines, fixed glazing and operable windows can be developed as one architectural composition rather than as separate products placed into individual openings.

This becomes especially important where windows need to relate visually to MHB doors or other steel systems elsewhere in the project.

03 · One window language

Fixed and operable windows become most convincing when they read as part of one steel composition.

04 · Your project
From elevation to system conversation

Start with the openings. Then review the appropriate MHB window routes.

Royal Design Marbella represents MHB across the Costa del Sol, helping architects, designers and project teams review available project information and coordinate relevant drawings, quotations and technical conversations. The exact execution route depends on the system, project and MHB process.

01

Share the elevations

Provide the available plans, elevations and information about the fixed and operable openings currently considered.

02

Review the window routes

The opening functions, profile context and available requirements can be reviewed within the relevant MHB system conversation.

03

Coordinate the next information

Drawings, quotations and relevant technical conversations can then be coordinated according to the project and applicable MHB process.
