Wideline is proud to announce that it is a founding member of the
Australian Window Association (AWA).
This association has been established to ensure that manufacturers produce windows and doors
that meet – if not exceed – stringent safety and structural standards. From material selection and
workmanship quality to weather sealing and applied finishes, all aspects of production are
scrutinised to ensure that they meet the relevant Australian standards.
The AWA label on each and every Wideline product means that you can be confident that our
vast range has been tested, certified and guaranteed by independent inspectors accredited by
the National Association of Testing Authorities.
All products shown in this catalogue are representative of what can be achieved and are subject to individual
finishes and installation techniques. Wideline Pty Ltd reserves the right to modify sizes and details without
notice. Wideline Pty Ltd does not accept liability for the appearance of your finished product.
