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.
Aluminum is extremely robust, resisting rot, rust, corrosion, and warping even in harsh weather conditions.
They require minimal upkeep, typically just occasional cleaning with mild soap and water, and do not need regular painting or staining like wood doors.
The material’s inherent strength allows for reinforced frames and compatibility with advanced multi-point locking systems, enhancing home security.
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.
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.
Aluminum is 100% recyclable, making it an environmentally sustainable choice for construction projects.

Total Home installed 21 windows, a patio door, and a front door for us, and they did a great job. Vitaly offered a fair price and a high-quality product. The installation headed by Eugene and Said went smooth. Highly recommended.
An easy 5 star review for the Total Home Team. The quote, the timing, the efficiency, the communication, the window installation itself all went as planned. Nazar and the other installer were professional and quick. We only had budgeted for 5 windows and a door cut out and will use them again for the front door and windows, when the pocketbook allows.<br>We are very happy with our investment and the TH team.
Im very happy with my purchase of 10 windows from this company. The office was helpful in talking me thru my options and troubleshooting some design limitations. While i initially was disappointed that the installer could not provide larger sills on the wooden trim, in the end i am very happy with the updated look these windows give my home - inside and out!<br>Installers - Valery and Andre- worked consistently and politely thru completion. - an 11 hr and gruellingly hot day. - they left my home spotless. I am very happy with my double hung windows - i hope they last me a lifetime.
Nazar and his team exceeded my expectations. I fully recommend this team and company for ANY window or door renovation. They expanded my window and made a walk out for me that should have happened before I purchased this home. This is a dream come true.
We are completely happy with our new exterior door, windows and garage door, as supplied and installed by Total Home.<br>Our project manager Eugene was excellent from day 1 through completion, explaining everything clearly, always responding same day to questions. He provided us references of other projects in our community - these families were all very happy, years later, with their installations and each said the best part of their experience with Total Home was the top notch service they received. We feel exactly the same. Every aspect of the project (Eugene) and the installations (Nazar) were excellent. We would not hesitate to recommend Total Home, Eugene and Nazar, and in fact we hope to have them back for future work.
Had a great experience with my new glass unit installation at Total Home and Windows and Doors! Ended up super happy with the results.<br><br>For better privacy at home I opted to change from my clear glass to frosted. The installation was a quick and simple process.
Sales man Daniel was professional, courteous and honest. He gave us a very good price for our front door replacement. Dimitry and his installation team did a neat job and respected our privacy.<br>Our new Front door looks very nice
Total Home did a solid work, they replaced my windows and front Door, the quality and design are superb and The installers were quick, professional and cleaned up after themselves. Highly Recommended for general window replacement.
Eugene, Saïd, Bogdan, Andrew, and Dima did a great job. The crew was polite, on time, and the quality of their work is positively noticeable. Thumbs up Total Home.
What a beauty!! Thank you to Anatoliy Gadzevych and his team, Nazar & Maksym, at Total Home Windows and Doors for this beautiful fibreglass door! Installation was done well and so fast! I’m so happy! We were told the door will be done in the spring but it came so much faster! I’m one happy customer. Highly recommend this company! 😃
Bumped up from 2 stars to 4 stars because of our sales rep Alex who took care of the matter.<br>_______________________________________________________________<br>We replaced a total of 7 windows, with one positioned at a height of 16ft. Some windows had marks. The installer told me it wasn't scratches and could be cleaned with a paper towel. However, the mark on the 16ft-high window is too noticeable, and we can't reach it ourselves, requiring high altitude equipment. We don’t mind to clean the other 6 windows by ourselves, but just the one at 16ft high. The installer could clean it in 10 seconds, but now, the 10-second task needs to be done by a cleaning service, which starting at a minimum of $250 for just one 16 ft window!!!!!<br><br>Secondly, after all the windows were installed, the installer was doing the final cleaning, clearing the small wood chips and dust on the floor. It's the 21st century, and I don't understand why a professional window company didn't use an industrial vacuum cleaner instead of a broom. The wood debris and dust were only around the windows area, but the installer roughly and quickly swept with the broom, spreading dust throughout the entire house. A considerable amount of dust floated around, and we had to leave the house for several hours before returning to clean. If the installer had used a vacuum cleaner, it wouldn't have generated such a large amount of dust in the entire house.<br><br>Finally, we don't mind and already told the installer which washroom that they can use. However, the issue arose after the installer completed their installation and removed the dirty cloth from the floor, but then returned to use washroom with dirty shoes that they had walked into our backyard, carrying a lot of mud on their shoes. With the matter of the case, it should never happened as a professional company.
5-star experience with Vitaly from first meeting to the end of the project. We had our home windows replaced. Every aspect of the job was professional, up-front, clear, and all promises delivered! Installer Vasgen was also top in every way. I highly recommend Total!
I’ve decided to change some windows in my house, but also the glassing door of my balcony, as it got so squeaky.<br>So I searched on the internet to see different offers and compare them.<br>When I came across Total Home website, I found exactly what I am looking for. I contacted them, and they came just the day after. I explained to them what I wanted precisely, and they were paying attention to every detail, they suggested some interesting ideas, and gave me a detailed quote at the end.<br>The installation didn’t take that long, and the team was very professional and meticulous. I am very satisfied with the final result and would definitely recommend it.
Top notch Services with Total Home replacing 3 of my Windows in matter of hours and took care of cleaning the debris before living.<br>👏
Total home enhanced the energy and the look of my home, professional service and great quality and the prices are reasonable, i highly recommend them for windows replacement.

The Installation was great! Friendly crew and installed the door with no issues. Lab and crew were amazing.
We did shop around and ended up with three estimates several months ago when contemplating the purchase of new windows. Eugene made the choice to go with Total Home Windows and Doors a very easy one. He guided me through the endless choices with knowledge and patience until we came up with a perfect solution that is not only energy efficient, esthetically very pleasing, but also fell within our budget. Yesterday, Valerii and his amazing crew replaced 5 standard windows, a huge picture window in the living room, the back patio door, as well as our front door and screen door. They were all very courteous and professional. They worked so efficiently and left the house clean and tidy both inside and out. Val took the time to show me how all the different windows mechanisms worked and how easily cleaning them would now be. They did a fantastic job. I couldn't be happier. The house looks amazing! Thanks, guys!!
F<br>ast service. Beautiful windows. Thank you Alex and Vlad you made the experience great.
We had 9 windows and 2 entry doors done with Total Home. Alex gave us a great quote and helped guide us through the design choices. Nazar and his team were fast, polite, and did a very clean job.<br>Couldn't be more satisfied.
Total Home replaced 18 windows and a patio sliding door in our house. Vitaly was our rep, and he was knowledgeable, responsive, and helpful throughout. Eugene and Said did a fantastic job on installation- on time, clean, and very detail-oriented. We're so happy with the result!
We recently had 7 windows and 1 front door replaced by Total Home. From the first meeting with Alex, who explained every option clearly, to the final install by Vlad and Val, everything was handled with care and professionalism. The work was neat, and the quality is outstanding. Highly recommend!

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.
