Hello everyone,

Does anyone have anthracite-colored windows (RAL 7016) paired with Braas Tegalit roof tiles?
Which color did you choose?

The windows will definitely be in RAL 7016. We would also prefer the roof in RAL 7016. Braas itself doesn’t have exact RAL colors but says their tiles are similar to the following colors:
RAL 7022 Braas Granite Grey
RAL 9017 Braas Deep Black
RAL 7011 Braas Slate Grey

Obviously, we have to make the decision ourselves. What are your impressions?
The roof will be a staggered shed roof with slopes of 35° and 45°. The rest of the house will be white plastered and partially clad with façade panels (either grey or grey wood look).

We combined it with Braas Rubin 11V for the windows in RAL7016.

However, we mainly matched the colors with the zinc flashings; it probably all suits the windows.

And we definitely wanted matte tiles.

We are still deciding as well. We will use the Braas Taunus roof tile and are torn between the colors Granite and Deep Black. The windows will be anthracite gray RAL 7016, just like yours. We are building a townhouse-style villa with two full stories and a hipped roof, so the roof probably won’t be very visible anyway. Still, we can’t make up our minds. Sometimes we lean toward black, sometimes gray... unfortunately, we don’t have much time left...

Doesn’t the granite sometimes look a bit brown? We have the samples on the balcony, and when the sun shines directly on them, they always appear quite brownish, in my opinion.

Good to know, thanks. We have slate gray, granite, and deep black to choose from. At first glance, the slate gray seemed a bit too light, so that was the first to be ruled out. That left granite and deep black. However, I have only seen the granite indoors, not outside in the sunlight. The samples we ordered from Braas haven’t arrived yet but should be here in the next few days. Then I’ll pay closer attention to that. We definitely don’t want a brownish shade. Well, it looks like deep black might be the only option.
