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.

From elegant entry doors with thermal break technology to expansive patio systems that blend indoor and outdoor spaces, aluminum construction adapts to any architectural vision. The material’s inherent strength supports large glass panels without compromising structural integrity, while powder-coated finishes in dozens of colours maintain their appearance through decades of Canadian winters. Modern aluminum profiles accommodate double or triple glazing units up to 38mm thick, creating barriers against heat loss that outperform traditional materials.
Create a clean facade with smooth surfaces and minimal gaps between panels and frame.
Add dimension through recessed or raised sections that suit traditional and contemporary styles alike.
Maximize sight lines with full-length glazing for clear views and abundant interior light.
The profiles feature a three-chamber structure with a structural depth of 77mm door sections and a thermal break made of polyamide reinforced with fibreglass. Standard configuration includes 3-point espagnolette locking, 3 two-winged hinges, 3 roller hinges for two-sided aligned panels, Ug = 1.1 W/(m²K) glass, warming insert, RAL 7016 and 9016 matt paint, threshold with thermal break, aluminum handle, and mounting insert. The system uses a 77mm thick both-side aligned batch panel with invisible hinges when the door is closed.
Extra options available: Swisspacer Ultimate warm spacing edge in 3 colour variants, 3-winged roller and hidden hinges, sidelights, a wide range of RAL colours and special structures, both-side alignment, glass panels from 15mm to 60mm thick infill, 77mm thick overlay panel and 36mm thick batch panel, plus various acoustic and safety glazing options.
Glide horizontally on precision tracks, perfect for small patios with space constraints.
Open completely by sliding panels to one side, removing barriers between interior and exterior.
Pivot inward at the bottom for ventilation or swing fully open for easy access.
Fold back in sections to create wide openings that transform living spaces.
Connect homes to yards with full glass panels that flood rooms with natural light.
Pair hinged panels that swing open from the centre for elegant transitions between rooms.
Provide sturdy secondary access points with security features that protect vulnerable entry areas.
Handle elevation exposure with weather-resistant construction that maintains operation through temperature swings.
Add a protective layer that shields primary doors from wind, rain, and debris.

Modern commercial systems include panic hardware, automatic operators, and access control integration that meets building codes without compromising the elegant appearance businesses want.
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.

We are so pleased that we went with Total Home for our new door. Eugene was very knowledgeable and helped us get the door we always wanted. He was available for any follow-up questions and made us feel taken care of as customers. Nazar did a FANTASTIC job installing and we are so happy with the final product. No complaints from beginning to end (a rarity with home renovations)!
We got 4 quotes from various window installers. 2 doors and 16 windows. Opted to go with TH because offered the best price, and neighbours had a good experience. Professional/friendly installers. Sales rep Alex was super helpful along the way.
I honestly don’t know where to start—everything about this experience was outstanding. From the very beginning, Vitally impressed me with his professionalism. He walked me through the entire process, gave me a tour of the factory with a wide selection of samples, and offered the best price I found on the market. Within just five weeks, the windows were fully installed. The quality of the windows and materials is excellent, and the installation was flawless. Vlad and his team arrived early, worked efficiently, and paid attention to every detail. They were polite, respectful, and took the time to clean up thoroughly after the job was done. I also appreciated how patient they were with all my questions throughout the process. The finishing and air sealing are top-notch. I’m extremely satisfied with the results and highly recommend Vitally, Vlad, and their entire team. This has been one of the best service experiences I’ve had.
Fantastic! These installers were unbelievably fast and efficient. I was expecting to need to do touch-ups on the trim etc afterwards, but they left everything looking pristine. I literally just had to re-hang curtains and that was it. Eugene walked me through a potentially confusing rebate process, and kept in touch even when he was on vacation (sorry about that Eugene!). I happily recommend them for window installation, quality of product, and customer service 🙂
The crew arrived on time replaced and installed all 19 windows the first day. The second day patio doors were replaced and installed and all trim completed.
Said, Eugene and TotalHome team did a terrific job in installing the windows and doors in my premises. It was a complete replacement and the entire process was handled by Alex and the total home sales team very well.
Total home came to replace a windows today Vlad the installer was very professional clean and quick highly recommend them for all your window needs.
The windows from total home windows and doors transform my house. The house has never looked better. Vlad did an incredible job installing them. The process was very smooth.
Nazar and his team were exceptional for our big windows and doors job! They made all of the new brick work look seamless and kept us informed with every part of the project. Our windows and exterior doors are stunning which is thanks to their install and trim expertise. Alex was also amazing to work with. Will be calling them back for all future projects for family and friends.
They are very good at what they do and pay attention to detail every step of the installation. This was a very smooth and stress free experience , I couldnt recommend them more . I will be using them again when the windows need replaced .
We recently had new windows installed by Total Home Windows and Doors, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. A big thank you to our project manager, Eugene, who guided us through everything—design options, product selection, and government loan process. He made what could have been a complicated process feel simple and stress-free. His professionalism and support were outstanding. We’re also very happy with the quality of the windows and especially the installation, which was completed by lad Val and his crew. They were truly amazing—friendly, professional, efficient, and very, very clean. They treated our home with great care, and it shows in the final result. We’d also like to thank the office staff at Total Home for always being friendly and helpful throughout the process. Everyone we dealt with made us feel like valued customers. We highly recommend Total Home to anyone looking for windows or doors—and if you can, ask for Eugene. He’s the best. Thank you again to the whole team!
Fourth wonderful experience with Total Home Windows and Doors! This time we had a custom sized patio door installed and we are thrilled. Our sunroom screen door (old and shabby) wasn’t closing properly. And Eugene (our amazing sales rep) suggested replacing it with a sliding door. Something we never considered and it was the perfect solution! We were so happy that Nazar did the install. He was over last year installing windows, and did a super job. Nazar and his assistant were clean and meticulous. And super friendly. I wholeheartedly recommend this great company. After the first job, they had me as a customer for life.
The installer Boris was amazing. You went above and beyond. I didn't have to ask him to do anything. He was already on top of everything that I needed and more. The utmost professional. Highly recommend this company.
The process started with a meeting at our house with Eugene, who was very friendly, very helpful, and eager to earn our business. Their pricing was incredibly fair, and we ended up choosing Total Home to replace the windows on our entire house. When the date came for the work to finally begin, they sent a team of 4 people who worked incredibly efficiently and were able to replace two dozen windows in a single day. They came back one other day to finish the trim and clean up. I was stunned that they did such a great job in such a short amount of time. We are very happy with the result and with the level of professionalism and easy communication thoughout the whole process. Would very highly recommend working with Total Home.
Vitaly and team helped to replace all our windows including main door and patio. I will highly recommend them as they are very well positioned to give best quotes in the market. The quality of windows was perfect.
Our Experience with Total Windows and doors has been fantastic. We got 6 Companies to give us a quote for 25 windows and 2 patio doors. Alex our Sales representative was very helpful with the entire process, Alex gave us the best quote, and great service. The Installation crew was very professional and did an amazing job. Eugene and Said took control of every aspect of our renovation from beginning to the end. Our Windows look great. I highly recommend this company.
From the initial consultation through to the installation, Total Home was great to deal with. The windows also look great. The price was also much more reasonable than many of the more well-known companies. I highly recommend this company for window replacements.
Many thanks to Alex and his team who helped to replace our front door back in November 2024. Very professional and well executed according to our wish. Great job and highly recommend this company !
Vitaly and team replaced all of our windows and doors, including install of a new bay window and sliding patio door. The entire experience from showroom selection, support on specifics for door with sidelights, application for greener home credits, and install, detailing, and cleanup were a great, professional experience! The new windows and doors are a huge step up over our previous builder windows, and the three panes (although a bit pricier, though marginally so with the credit) offer amazing sound barriers and have had a noticeably positive impact to heating and cooling bills. We’d highly recommend total home windows and doors for your projects!
Just a smooth transaction from start to finish. But what really stood out, was the level of quality and professionalism from the Installers. These guys worked so well as a team and it was a pleasure having them in my home. The install was quick and efficient with no hiccups. They were very detailed and there was almost zero dust or mess when they were done which was a huge surprise with how much work is actually needed for install. And most of all, they were very polite, had a great attitude, and I hope they let me know when they are in the area so I can make them espresso(s) haha
Excellent work! Had three windows and one front door replaced. Highly recommend Nazar and his team!
The house had old wooden frame windows and after almost 35 yrs they needed replacing because of drafts. Vitaly was wonderful... didn't just tell me about his products but also had the value add of telling me about rebates and loan programs, told me about pros and con of window changes I was considering. <br> <br>Nazar's installation team was great. It's a big job and keeping the mess to a minimal was hard. He really paid attention to the details (like I would). They were always on-time and worked hard through out the day.
From sales to the office staff to the installation team all was seamless they did a fantastic job of installation would use them again. The price as very reasonable.
Just had 11 windows and two doors replaced by Total Home Windows and Doors. I requested a consult in February and met with Vitaly, who was very knowledgeable and gave us all the information we needed to make an informed decision. Communication was easy and we were able to tour the factory to select a door. Vitaly went over the various options and answered all of our many questions professionally. Once we signed the contract, it took about 5-6 weeks until installation. The installers arrived promptly on the set date and took care to protect our floors and ensure our furniture was out of harms way. Eugene, Said and the rest of the installation team were respectful and efficient. The job was finished in two days and the team thoroughly cleaned up afterwards. The windows are great quality and I can already feel a difference in my home. I would highly recommend this company if you are shopping around - they care about what they do and it shows in their work.
After requesting several quotes from various contractors to retrofit my parent's home with new windows and doors including insulation top-up and sill replacement, Total Home, was selected based on my interactions with Mike B. He was friendly and professional who provided me with a detailed and reasonable quote for the project that was within my parent’s budget. He was in constant contact with me throughout the job. The Total Home team were amazing with installation of the insulation, window sill, windows and doors and went above and beyond expectations in many cases . As an example, the insulation technician (Farook) noticed that the bathroom fan vents were not properly vented through the roof and corrected the issue for me. The windows and doors crew, led by Eugene / Said, were professional and courteous who did an awesome job working in the brutal cold without complaints. I couldn't be much happier with the project and would have no reservations about recommending Total Home for your project.
I recently had replaced my patio door. I'm very glad that I went with them. The work was done even earlier than expected, the installers were amazing, did the whole job within 2.5 hours, cleaned everything and there was attention to details. Also they are priced very reasonably. I would highly recommend them.
Weve engaged Total Home Windows and Doors to change a large patio door and 3 windows on the main floor, as the original builder failed to install proper insulation and water was getting into the house. <br> <br>Eugene came to our place promptly and proposed a couple of solutions and price points to allow us to replace the door / windows. We have been in touch throughout the entire process, and he provided updates on the manufacturing and installation timelines. <br> <br>Nazar went way above and beyond in doing proper fixes once the door and windows had been removed and the extent of damage became visible. Nazar also performed extra work to ensure the siding, and the new door / windows are well integrated to provide proper insulation. The installation was smooth, and the team cleaned up after themselves properly. <br> <br>Everything looks great and no more water comes into the house. Exceptional work, and I could not be happier with the result.
We are thrilled with our experience with Total Home Windows and Doors - from start to finish! We have a very unique situation with our front door: it looks like a double door entry from the outside, but 2/3 of the second door has a closet behind it. We had multiple businesses come to quote, but Alex at Total Home Windows and Doors was the only one who could show us exactly what kind of custom solution they could offer, and at the best price! Communication was excellent with the company during the buying and measuring process, and today Nazar came for our custom install. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful of our home while making fast work of getting our new door and sidelight installed. Sharing photos of before, during, and after to see the unique situation. We are thrilled and would 100% recommend this business for your door needs.
Every interaction with Total Home Windows and Doors was excellent. Vitaly provided us with all of the information that we needed to make an informed decision. And Vlad did a great job installing our new front door and two patio doors. Everything looks great and the quality of the work shows. I highly recommend.
prefect installation! thank you Vazgen for fast and clean job!
Great insulation done by vlad
Vitaly and his entire team were fantastic! They were professional and did a wonderful job replacing our windows in our townhome. Vazgen who did our installation was efficient and professional and their workmanship was excellent. They cleaned up after themselves and our windows look fantastic! I would (and have) recommended them to friends and neighbours.
I just had my windows replaced by Total Homes, and it was a fabulous experience. From the start working with Eugene, walking us through the process, to the expert installation led by Valeri it couldn't have gone any better. The windows look amazing, and built to last!. Very 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.
