About Down Rite
From the rugby field to the building site
Before Down Rite, our founder Wesley Futter played professional rugby and drilled boreholes. Both taught him the same thing: turn up, work hard, and finish the job properly.
On site he kept seeing the same gap. Clients wanted good-quality aluminium windows and doors, fitted by people who take pride in the finish. So in 2023 he started Down Rite Aluminium, with a professional approach to everything from standard windows to fully bespoke doors and glazing.
Down Rite Aluminium was built around a straightforward idea: deliver quality aluminium and glazing work with a clean finish, reliable service and attention to detail. We work with homeowners, builders, developers, schools and businesses across South Africa, manufacturing in our own Cape Town workshop and installing on site from start to finish.
