Why Homeowners Choose Aluminium Doors
Aluminium remains a popular door material because it balances design freedom with structural strength, practical security pathways and low-maintenance long-term ownership.
Strong Daily Security Foundations
With multi-point locking, reinforced hardware pathways and tested upgrade options, aluminium systems are well suited to security-led specification briefs.
Durable Performance in Exposed Locations
Aluminium frame construction is designed for long-term durability and low maintenance, making it practical for busy entrances and weather-facing elevations.
Flexible Opening Formats for Different Rooms
From single entrance leaves to wide-span sliding and bi-fold setups, aluminium routes can be matched to your opening size and how the space is used daily.
Aluminium Door Types and Opening Formats
Start with the right opening format for your property layout, then refine glazing, threshold and finish details to match how the space is used every day.
Single and Double Entrance Doors
A practical route for front, side or utility entrances where clean styling, secure hardware and long-term reliability all matter.

We scope aluminium door recommendations around practical outcomes: comfortable rooms, predictable operation, reduced outside noise and clearer performance expectations before you commit.
Thermal Targets and U-Value Planning
Current aluminium door pathways commonly target around 1.4 W/m2K with double glazing, with lower values available on selected higher-spec routes.

- Entrance-focused aluminium routes include single and double-door options, with open-in and open-out pathways selected around access and layout.
- Representative frame depth pathways include 58mm and 70mm for entrance systems, with deeper twin and triple-track routes used for larger sliding configurations.
- Typical glazing thickness pathways run from around 24mm up to 40mm depending on system selection and performance target.
- Double-glazed routes commonly target around 1.4 W/m2K, while selected triple-glazed pathways can reach around 1.0 to 1.1 W/m2K.
- PAS 24, Document Q and Secured by Design aligned upgrade pathways are available where project briefs call for enhanced security standards.
- Low-threshold and accessibility-led options are available on selected pathways, with final recommendations confirmed during survey and technical sign-off.
Final project performance depends on opening size, glazing build-up, threshold details and installation quality.
Security and Compliance Priorities
Security planning starts with robust day-to-day hardware, then extends to enhanced compliance routes where project requirements call for tested upgrades.
Multi-Point Locking as Core Specification
Most aluminium door routes rely on full-height locking engagement and reinforced keeps to strengthen resistance at key attack points.
PAS 24 and Document Q Upgrade Routes
Where your project requires tested security alignment, we can scope compatible system and hardware routes during survey.
Smart Status Monitoring Compatibility
Selected hardware pathways can be prepared for smart lock-state monitoring so daily security checks are simpler and faster.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to common planning, specification and installation questions before you commit.
Are aluminium doors suitable for both modern and traditional homes?
Yes. Aluminium systems include contemporary slimline formats and heritage-style pathways, so the final look can be matched to both newer and period-sensitive properties.
What aluminium door formats are available?
Typical pathways include single and double entrance doors, French doors, bi-fold systems and sliding patio or lift-and-slide routes. We help you match the right format to your opening and daily use.
Can aluminium doors be energy efficient?
Yes. Thermally broken frame construction and the right glazing build-up can deliver strong thermal outcomes, with typical compliant routes around 1.4 W/m2K and lower values available on selected upgrades.
Do aluminium doors support enhanced security standards?
Yes. Multi-point locking is standard on many pathways, with PAS 24, Document Q and Secured by Design aligned upgrades available where your project brief requires them.
Can I choose low-threshold aluminium door options?
Yes. Low-threshold options are available on selected systems. We review access priorities, weather exposure and floor-level detail during survey before final recommendation.
Do I need planning permission to replace a door with aluminium?
Most like-for-like replacements are permitted development, but listed properties and conservation areas may need additional approval. We can help you review this before installation.
