Aluminium Doors Supplied and Fitted Across South Africa

Whether you are building, renovating or replacing a tired timber or steel door, aluminium doors are one of the most popular choices in South African homes and businesses. AluminiumDoor.co.za helps you find the right people. Tell us which aluminium door you need, the size and where you are, and we pass your request to an independent installer, fabricator or supplier serving your area. They quote you directly. We don't make, sell or fit doors ourselves, the service is free and there is no obligation to accept.

Types of aluminium doors

There are more types of aluminium doors than most people expect, and each suits a different opening:

• Front and entrance doors: hinged or pivot, solid panels or glazed with sidelights
• Sliding doors: one or two moving panels on a bottom track, the classic patio door
• Stacking doors: three or more panels that slide and stack to one side for a wider opening
• Folding (bifold) doors: panels that concertina back so almost the whole wall opens
• Pivot doors: oversized doors that turn on a pivot set in from the edge
• French doors: a pair of hinged glazed doors opening outward or inward
• Specialist doors: garage doors, shower doors, security doors and commercial shopfronts

Why choose aluminium?

Aluminium does not rot, warp or swell in summer rain the way timber can, and it does not rust like untreated steel. It is strong enough to carry large panes of glass in slim frames, which is why big sliding and stacking doors are nearly always aluminium. Maintenance is mostly cleaning the frames and keeping tracks clear. On the coast, ask for a marine-grade finish and stainless fixings, because salt air attacks cheaper coatings. Choosing an AAAMSA member fabricator gives you some assurance that the door is made to recognised industry standards.

Finishes and colours

Most doors are powder coated, which bakes a durable paint layer onto the aluminium in almost any colour. Charcoal, black, white and bronze are the common choices, and textured and wood-look coats are also available. Anodising is an electrochemical finish that gives a metallic look and wears very well, but comes in fewer colours. Matching your doors to existing windows matters more than chasing a trend, so mention the colour of your current frames when you ask for a price.

Standard sizes or made to measure

Many sliding and hinged doors are sold in standard sizes, which suit new builds where the brickwork is planned around them. These are the aluminium doors for sale you see ready-made, and they are usually quicker to get. Renovations, odd openings and large glass walls generally need made-to-measure doors, fabricated after a site measure. If you are searching for aluminium doors near me, send your opening sizes and photos so a local installer can tell you which route fits your project.

Comparing quotes for aluminium doors

The lowest price is not always the best value. When your quote arrives, check:

• Measure and system: whether the price is based on a site measure, and which aluminium profile range is specified for the size of the opening.
• Glass and finish: safety glass type and thickness, and powder coating or anodising, with a marine-grade finish near the sea.
• Installation: removal of old frames, fixing, levelling, sealing and making good, and who handles plaster and paint.
• Guarantee and timing: what the guarantee covers, the lead time for manufacture and the date for fitting.

What to include in your request

• Type of door and where it goes (front, patio, kitchen, garage)
• Width and height of the opening, plus photos
• Preferred colour and finish, and glass type if known
• Supply only or supply and installation
• Your suburb and when you need the door
