A Door for Each Job

The word "door" covers very different situations. The one leading to the garden, the one between the living room and the terrace, and the one that greets your visitors all face different demands in security, insulation and daily use. Choosing well starts with understanding what each opening needs to do.

Made-to-measure aluminium doors cover nearly all of them. Aluminium allows large leaves without distortion, takes robust hardware, and stays stable in the Algarve coastal climate, where timber needs constant upkeep and steel eventually corrodes.

This page covers external aluminium doors as a whole. If you already know you need a sliding solution for a wide opening, or a main entrance with reinforced security, you will find links to the dedicated pages at the end.

Benefits of Aluminium Doors

Why aluminium has become the default material for external doors.

Large Leaves That Hold Their Shape

The rigidity of aluminium allows tall, wide doors that stay aligned over time instead of dropping on their hinges.

Takes Serious Hardware

The profile accepts multi-point locking and reinforced hinges without needing to be adapted.

Stable in a Coastal Climate

It neither rots in damp nor corrodes in salt air, which makes a real difference close to the sea.

Finishes to Match

Powder coating covers virtually the whole RAL range, including wood-effect textures, so the door can match the facade.

Insulation Where It Counts

On openings separating inside from out, thermally broken profiles limit heat loss and condensation.

Straightforward Upkeep

Periodic cleaning and occasional lubrication of the hardware are enough to keep everything running smoothly.

Common Problems With External Doors

The situations that usually prompt a door replacement.

The door has dropped and catches on the floor

Heavy leaves in materials that move eventually sag. An aluminium system with hardware sized for the weight keeps its alignment.

Water or wind gets in along the bottom

The threshold and its seals are the critical point of any external door. A current system resolves weathertightness at that junction.

A flimsy lock with a single locking point

Aluminium profiles take multi-point locks, which secure the leaf at several points up the height of the frame.

A worn look that clashes with the rest of the facade

Replacing with a system powder-coated to your chosen colour brings the whole elevation back together without major building work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of external aluminium door are there?

The most common are hinged doors, in either a single or double leaf, and sliding solutions for wide openings. Which suits you depends on the space available to swing the door and how the opening is used day to day.

Is aluminium secure enough for an external door?

Security comes mostly from the hardware and the glazing rather than the profile alone. A system with a multi-point lock, reinforced hinges and laminated glass is far more resistant than an older door with a simple latch.

Can the existing frame be kept?

Sometimes, particularly when the frame is sound and properly square. In other cases replacing the whole assembly is worthwhile to guarantee weathertightness. An on-site assessment settles which applies.

How long does it take between ordering and fitting?

That depends on the system chosen and the fabricator's workload at the time. Because the door is made to measure there is always a production lead time, which is stated in your quote.

Is there any cost for a quote?

No. You can request a quote at no cost and with no obligation to go ahead with the work.
