Architects
Aluminium windows and doors designed to stand apart.
If you are looking for bespoke architectural window and door solutions, Lidar fabricates to your exact specification — with the precision your design demands.
why Lidar
Built for the demands of architectural specification.
When a window specification isn't met, it's not just a product problem — it's a design problem. Compromised sightlines, thermal performance that falls short, details that don't resolve the way they were drawn. Lidar exists to make sure that doesn't happen.
We specialise in aluminium window and door fabrication for projects of all scales. As FMI Building Innovation's first XLab partner in New Zealand, we run the most advanced fabrication technology in the country — computer-controlled cutting and machining that delivers the accuracy your specification depends on.
Twenty years. Thousands of projects. We understand how to read a specification, solve a complex detail, and fabricate to a standard that holds up under scrutiny.
Every window. Every door. Every time.
What sets us apart
Four reasons architects specify Lidar.
As FMI Building Innovation's first XLab partner, Lidar uses computer-controlled cutting and machining to fabricate every component to exact specification. The detail you drew is the detail that gets built — no manual variance, no tolerance creep.
Non-standard sizes, complex configurations, bespoke details — Lidar's custom fabrication capability means your architectural vision doesn't have to be value-engineered away. We've solved difficult specifications before, and we'll solve yours.
From standard residential series through to thermally broken systems, Lidar's product range is built to perform technically as well as aesthetically. Specify for energy efficiency, acoustic control, or demanding environmental conditions — we'll fabricate to meet it.
Architects need suppliers who understand what precision actually means. Our lead-time commitments, quality assurance processes, and two decades of hands-on expertise mean you can put our name on a specification and stand behind it.
