Because they bother feature benefits of their own as well as sharing some, we provide you with the option of both materials for your new doors. Using our knowledge and expertise we will guide you in choosing what will work best for your home and space, so you can make the most of it. We have put together a list of benefits for each material to help you decide one the best option for your home.
Benefits of aluminium
The durability of aluminium is the feature that most sets the material apart from others, as it can withstand virtually anything, which is why it has such a long lifespan. Despite its unbeatable durability and strength, aluminium is an impressively light material, making it very flexible to work with. You can mould and shape aluminium in any way you like, which is ideal for if you want a bespoke design for a specific requirement of your project. The strength of aluminium not only makes aluminium doors super secure, but it also means they can hold more glass to create impressive living spaces. Aluminium can also be chosen in a huge range of RAL colours, so you can suit your new doors to the aesthetic of the interior and exterior of your home.
Aluminium doors
We offer bi-folding aluminium doors, which offer slim sightlines and improved functionality to enhance your home environment. The concertina style folds back to maximise floor space and open up your home from the outside in. They can also feature a single traffic door for extra convenience, depending on the amount of space you have to work with. Bi-fold aluminium doors dramatically increase the amount of natural light in your home, as well as helping to reduce energy bills thanks to them being highly energy efficient.
Benefits of PVCu
The unpredictable British weather of wind, rain, cold and sometimes sunshine (!) eventually gets the better of traditional timber doors, whereas PVCu is completely weather resistant. We all have busy lives and PVCu is not only super durable but very low maintenance. PVCu is incredibly easy to clean – all you need is some hot soapy water and quick wipe down and your PVCu door will look as good as new. You don’t have to worry about re-painting either as the material doesn’t fade. Choosing between PVCu and aluminium can be determined by cost. PVCu is one of the most affordable options, providing excellent value for money, and a long life-span.
