Advantages of aluminium doors over steel
What are the advantages of aluminium doors over steel? When picking out a new door or wall, you often end up with steel or aluminium. At first glance, they may look the same, but in practice there are clear differences.
Steel looks tough and heavy, while aluminium is lighter and easier to use. Therefore, it is useful to know what both materials have to offer, so that you make a choice that suits your home well
Weight and ease of use
Aluminium is by nature a light metal, while steel is much heavier. This is immediately noticeable in Aluwdoors's doors and walls: an aluminium door is easy to open and close.
There is also a big difference when it comes to installation. Because aluminium weighs less, it is easier to install. This without the need for extra-heavy hinges or reinforced structures. Still, the material is sturdy enough to handle daily use well, so you benefit from high-quality doors.
Maintenance and sustainability
In the long run, you often have fewer worries with aluminium. This metal does not rust and therefore stays clean without you having to do much to it. Just cleaning it with a cloth is usually enough. Steel is very strong and can last for years, but if the coating on it gets damaged, it will rust.
Steel therefore requires more maintenance, while the aluminium doors of Aluwdoors are maintenance-friendly.
Design freedom and finishing
Aluminium offers many design options. The slim profiles create a light and open look, while you can choose from different styles to suit both modern and more classic interiors. In addition, there are many different options in colour, glass and handles, so that the door or wall always matches the rest of the interior. For example, choose the coating for all possible RAL colours.
