Whether you’re looking to replace dated patio doors or introduce them into your new extension, there are plenty of options available. From timber to uPVC and aluminium, each material has its own strengths. However, aluminium offers homeowners a unique combination of performance and aesthetics that can’t be found in any other material.
Sliding patio doors allow you to create a seamless transition between your home and garden, whilst also helping you to establish a more intimate connection with nature. They’re ideal for opening up large spaces and allowing fresh air to circulate, bringing you the benefits of a more energised lifestyle.
These aluminium doors are crafted from a durable metal, making them hardwearing and resistant to the elements. This means they will continue to look and perform as well as the day they were installed, even after years of use. They’re also a popular choice for homeowners who want to maintain their homes’ energy efficiency.
In addition, aluminium is inherently strong, removing the need for extra-bulky supporting frames and maximising the amount of glass you can incorporate into your doors. This makes them an excellent choice if you’re looking to create a sleek, modern look in your home that will complement any architectural style.
Aside from being extremely tough, aluminium is a recyclable material, meaning that when you decide to replace your patio doors they won’t end up in landfill. They’re also incredibly low-maintenance, with the exception of the occasional wipe down to keep them looking as good as new.
Aluminium patio doors can be finished in a variety of ways, allowing you to create a look that suits your property. You can choose from powder-coated colours, such as white, grey and dark wood, or dual colour options, where the frame is the same shade on both the inside and outside of the door. These are a great choice if you’re planning to have your doors installed in a light-coloured space, as they will blend seamlessly with your interior décor.
These aluminium sliding doors are available in different operating styles to suit your needs, including easy-to-use push to open rollers and secure, multi-point locking systems. They can also be fitted with a range of glazing options, from standard clear to argon gas filled chambers for enhanced thermal efficiency.
These doors are available in a wide range of sizes and finishes to suit your space, and can be combined with matching side lights and architectural transoms for a complete design. They can also be fitted with a decorative between-the-glass grid, which is perfect for adding character and making your doors stand out from the crowd. The aluminium frames are also available with a choice of draught-proofing and security measures, such as UK-certified Secured by Design locking and lock monitoring, which alerts you to any attempted break-ins. The doors can also be upgraded with a wide selection of handles, hinges and handle designs to tailor the finishing touches to your taste and style requirements.
