Inspiring Design Ideas for Aluminium Patio Doors
Aluminium sliding patio doors encompass a wide range of styles and architectural designs. Our collection runs the gamut from heritage and Art Deco to sleek modern patio door designs and Scandi styles.
Large glass panels and slimline frames let your beautiful views speak for themselves. Alternatively, add some period charm to your home with our more traditional units.
Aluminium is flexible and can be made into doors of just about any size and configuration. We offer 2-pane to 6-pane options, with widths up to 6.95 metres! The glass can be double, triple-glazed, or laminated for extra privacy.
All our lift and slide patio doors include air-tight draught-resistant seals and U-values as low as 0.8 for market-leading sustainability and energy-efficiency.
While aluminium patio doors create an attractive entrance to your garden or outdoor area, they are also effective for separating and defining rooms within your home.
Customisation and Personalisation
The key to a unique style is customisation. From the size and style to the colour and finishing touches, we work with you to create the patio doors you dream of.
Our aluminium sliding door frames can be sprayed with any RAL colour and powder coated for colour stability. You can even design doors with different colours inside and out to match your existing decor or create a statement.
The final touches are your choice of hardware – hinges, locks, and more. You can select chrome, brass, traditional or modern fixtures and fittings, depending on your taste and requirements.
We also have uPVC sliding patio doors available.
Integrating Technology and Smart Features
Technological advances have improved the functionality, security and longevity of aluminium patio doors. Many units include automated opening and closing with remote control operation. Multi-locking systems can also be automated and integrated within your home’s security system.
You can add motorized blinds or shades, giving you control of how much light filters in at the touch of a button. Alternatively, internal blinds can provide the same privacy and light filtration without the issues of physical blinds.
These features are not just for convenience. They are also energy-efficient, maximising natural light and warmth to reduce heating bills and lower your carbon footprint.
Considerations for Installation and Maintenance
Even the best-made product can fail if not installed properly. Windows and doors must be installed correctly to ensure proper insulation, ventilation, weather-resistance, and security.
An incorrectly installed patio door could leave you vulnerable to draughts, weather damage, high heating bills, and even break-ins. So, you need to hire the right people for the job.
When choosing your supplier and installer, you should gather quotes to compare and check reviews on reputable sites.
Reviews
We’re very proud of our 4.9 rating on TrustATrader and 9.55 CERTASS reviews score (at the time of writing). We encourage potential customers to read some reviews to get an unbiased opinion. Likewise, word of mouth has served us well over the years, so ask your friends and neighbours for recommendations.
Maintenance
Once installed, our aluminium patio doors offer longevity with little maintenance required. A regular clean with warm soapy water will clean the glass and the frame. Remember to also keep the track clear of any obstructions.
