How we specify

Performance you can look up


Luxury finish selection usually happens by eye, in a showroom, under lighting chosen to sell. Ours happens against test data. A window is specified by its AAMA performance grade. Decking is specified by its fire class and slip rating. Cabinetry is specified by its emissions compliance.

AuSpaces holds integrated sourcing relationships enabling premium finishes at competitive pricing. What that means for you is a finish level normally reserved for ultra-luxury work, with the certification to prove what went in the house.
