Aluminum profiles for the Lebanese market
Apartment buildings dominate construction in Beirut and the coastal cities, with balconies and large windows that rely on aluminum sliding and casement systems. Lebanese fabricators have a long tradition of aluminum work and look for profiles that combine a clean appearance with reliable accessories.
Typical requests include sliding window and balcony door sections, casement windows, thermal break systems for mountain homes and shop-front profiles. Send your section list and we will match existing dies or quote custom extrusions.
Coastal humidity and mountain winters
On the coast, humidity and salt air call for suitable finishes and corrosion-resistant accessories; agree powder coating or anodizing with a sample. Sliding tracks should drain winter rain effectively.
In mountain towns, winters are cold and snowy, so a thermal break aluminum profile with insulated glazing helps reduce heat loss and condensation. Tell us the location and altitude of the project so we can propose the right series.
Lebanon aluminum profile sample catalogue
The 5 images below are the profile sections grouped for Lebanon in the MT Flying sample catalogue. Use them to identify sections familiar to Lebanese fabricators or to discuss an alternative.
Quote the sample number (for example “Lebanon sample 001”) together with a section drawing when you ask for a price. The photographs are selection references only; they do not confirm wall thickness, alloy temper, finish or local certification, so the drawing and specification decide the final profile.
Recommended MT Flying systems for Lebanon
Our sliding window systems and aluminum sliding doors suit apartment balconies, while the 55 series thermal-break casement profiles are a good choice for insulated windows. Larger villas can consider the panoramic sliding door range.
Distributors can combine building profiles with cabinet profiles and interior door profiles in one container.
Shipping aluminum profiles to Lebanon
Cargo usually arrives through the Port of Beirut or the Port of Tripoli. Confirm the port, incoterm and clearing agent with your enquiry, and ask your forwarder about current schedules.
We pack profiles with protective film and wrapped bundles; tell us if you need specific bundle weights or bar lengths for local handling.
How to request a quotation from Lebanon
To prepare a quotation for Lebanon, please send:
- Section drawings or the Lebanon sample numbers you want to match
- Length per bar, quantity per profile and the total tonnage or bar count
- Finish: powder coating colour, anodizing, wood-grain or electrophoresis, with a colour reference
- Whether you need bare profiles, profiles with accessories, or finished windows and doors
- Destination port (Beirut or Tripoli), your incoterm and clearing agent
- Any test reports, certificates or documents your project or importer requires
MT Flying will review the drawings, confirm whether an existing die can be used or a new die is needed, and return an itemised quotation with the agreed packing and shipment terms. Approve the drawings and a finish sample before production starts.
