Modern Entry Solutions Built to Last

Why Aluminum Doors Stand Out

Aluminum doors are a durable, low-maintenance, and modern choice for both residential and commercial properties, prized for their strength and design flexibility. They offer enhanced security and can be customized into various styles like sliding, French, and pivot doors.

Durability and Weather Resistance:

Aluminum is extremely robust, resisting rot, rust, corrosion, and warping even in harsh weather conditions.

Low Maintenance:

They require minimal upkeep, typically just occasional cleaning with mild soap and water, and do not need regular painting or staining like wood doors.

Security:

The material’s inherent strength allows for reinforced frames and compatibility with advanced multi-point locking systems, enhancing home security.

Energy Efficiency:

Modern aluminum doors incorporate thermal breaks (insulating materials within the frame) and can be paired with double or triple glazing to significantly improve insulation and lower energy bills.

Aesthetics and Design Flexibility:

Aluminum’s strength-to-weight ratio allows for slim frames and larger glass panels, creating a sleek, contemporary look and maximizing natural light. They are available in a wide range of customizable colours and finishes.

Eco-Friendly:

Aluminum is 100% recyclable, making it an environmentally sustainable choice for construction projects.

Residential Aluminum Doors

Homeowners choose aluminum when they want contemporary style that doesn’t sacrifice performance in Canadian winters. The slim profiles support larger glass areas than vinyl or wood frames can achieve, flooding interiors with natural light while thermal breaks prevent condensation and heat loss. Aluminum front doors make powerful first impressions that blend beauty with security features like multi-point locks and reinforced frames.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Aluminum Doors

What are the disadvantages of aluminium doors?

Without thermal breaks, aluminum conducts heat and cold more readily than materials like fiberglass doors or PVC. Initial costs run higher than vinyl options, though longevity and minimal maintenance offset the difference. Proper installation with thermally broken profiles eliminates most thermal concerns.

Aluminum typically costs more upfront than basic wood models but requires virtually no maintenance over decades. Wood needs regular refinishing, sealing, and protection from moisture damage, making aluminum the more economical selection long-term despite higher initial prices.

Older aluminum systems without thermal breaks performed poorly in Canadian winters, creating condensation and heat loss. That outdated reputation persists despite modern innovations like polyamide thermal breaks that make current aluminum doors excellent choices for energy efficiency and comfort.

Quality aluminum doors last 45 years or more with minimal care, outlasting wood and matching fiberglass longevity. The material doesn’t rot, warp, or corrode, and powder-coated finishes maintain their appearance through decades of weather exposure without repainting.

Steel doors offer superior security and insulation at lower prices, making them ideal for homes prioritizing energy savings. Aluminum provides slimmer profiles for larger glass areas and better corrosion resistance, making it the better choice for contemporary designs.

The best exterior door depends on your priorities. Fiberglass balances durability and insulation for most homes. Steel suits security-focused budgets. Aluminum creates modern aesthetics with maximum glass. Wood offers traditional decor but needs regular maintenance to prevent deterioration.

Aluminum resists rust and corrosion naturally, maintaining its shape and finish in coastal or high-humidity areas where steel degrades. The material’s strength-to-weight ratio supports larger glass panels with slimmer frames, creating contemporary looks that steel’s bulk cannot achieve.

Powder-coated aluminum finishes resist scratches better than painted wood but can show marks from sharp impacts. Most surface scratches affect only the coating, not the underlying metal. Touch-up paint in matching colours repairs minor damage, though anodized finishes prove more scratch-resistant.

Modern aluminum doors with multi-point locking systems, reinforced frames, and laminated safety glazing provide security comparable to steel or solid wood. The material’s inherent strength prevents forced entry when properly installed with quality hardware, making aluminium an excellent choice for protection.

Aluminum doors excel in durability, weather resistance, and design flexibility, making them suitable for Canadian climates. Modern thermally broken profiles achieve energy efficiency close to PVC while supporting larger glazing areas. The addition of quality hardware and proper installation delivers performance homeowners appreciate.

Aluminum requires virtually no maintenance compared to wood’s regular refinishing needs, and it won’t rot, warp, or attract insects. Wood provides natural insulation and traditional beauty that some homeowners prefer. The important factors are your maintenance tolerance, budget, and aesthetic preferences.

Aluminum melts at high temperatures but doesn’t contribute fuel to fires like wood. Fire-rated aluminum door models with special glazing and intumescent seals can achieve 30 to 120-minute fire ratings for commercial applications. Standard residential aluminum doors aren’t typically fire-rated products.

Aluminum offers slimmer sightlines, larger glass areas, and greater colour selection than uPVC, making it ideal for contemporary designs. PVC provides slightly better thermal performance at lower costs. Both materials deliver longevity and low maintenance, with your choice depending on aesthetic priorities and budget.
