Building conditions in Durban
Durban's hot, humid climate and salty sea air make it one of the harshest places in the country for door frames and hardware. Near the beachfront and on the Bluff, cheaper finishes chalk and corrode, rollers seize and steel screws stain, so marine-grade coatings and stainless fittings pay off. Heavy summer downpours test sill drainage and seals. The city mixes high-rise beachfront apartments, Berea homes, Durban North family houses and busy commercial districts. Security is a constant priority, so aluminium doors are usually paired with burglar bars or trellis gates, and hotels and offices order frameless or shopfront entrance doors.

Typical aluminium French doors requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: coastal homes choose outward-opening French doors with good seals against wind and rain
- Homeowners: homeowners fit French doors from the main bedroom onto a private garden stoep
- Apartments and flats: apartments fit inward-opening French doors onto narrow Juliet balconies
- Guesthouses, lodges and restaurants: guesthouses give rooms French doors that open onto gardens or pool decks
- Offices: offices in converted homes keep the character with aluminium French doors
- Shops and retail: boutiques and delis use glazed French doors as a charming double entrance
