With so many materials to choose from, such as timber, composite and uPVC doors, many clients have asked why they should choose aluminium and what are the comparative advantages?
Weather resistant
Unlike some alternatives, aluminium is highly stable and produces very little deformation. Historically, seasonal changes would cause problems with different door types due to fluctuation in temperature and moisture content. Typically, this would result in doors ‘sticking’ or struggling to close – either down to the door itself expanding/shrinking in the frame or due to the contrasting temperatures on the inside and outside of the door whereby one of the panels shrinks and the other expands causing bowing. With Now aluminium doors, you don’t have this problem.
Longevity
Aluminium doors require little to no maintenance. All our doors are powder coated to the highest quality and finished in your RAL colour choice. This ensures that your aluminium bifold door will look the same in 10 years time as it did the day it was fitted. Aluminium is also a renewable material and recyclable, so you are helping the environment too!
Strength
As a material, Aluminium is exceptionally strong. Despite the profile being exceptionally slim, this means we can create large doors to your bespoke specifications. Regardless of size, all of our bifolds are highly secure and provide the reassurance that your home is safe and sound at all times.
In summary, aluminium doors allow you to make an aesthetic statement from the moment a visitor turns up at your doorstep, without compromising on safety or performance. We can also provide doors with exceptionally fast turnaround timescales – perfect if you need a replacement door or tight deadlines.
