AS 2047 is the Australian Standard for "Window and external glazed doors in buildings", setting mandatory minimum specifications for products used in Australia. It covers materials, construction, testing, installation, and glazing, ensuring compliance with performance criteria for structural integrity, air infiltration, and water penetration resistance. Adherence to AS 2047 is crucial for meeting National Construction Code (NCC) requirements for building projects.
Why it matters
Window and door decisions are rarely about one metric in isolation. Standards, glazing, frame selection, installation conditions and project documentation all need to work together before a system is selected for a real site.
