Aluminium French Doors

Sometimes called aluminium double doors, aluminium french doors are a versatile door system, combining a slimline design with thermal efficiency and performance.

 

Stylish Aluminium French Doors for Modern Homes

With attractive, slim-line designs, aluminium french doors are the perfect way to bring the best out of your home. 

From great-looking handles in matching finishes to a smooth, effortless glide, bi-folding doors offer slimmer profiles and more glass for an unobstructed view. In addition to their aesthetic appeal, they provide excellent protection and superb heat retention, ensuring your home stays safe and energy-efficient. 

For added security, these doors feature a multipoint hook locking mechanism with a ‘lift-up’ handle to lock, and an adjustable, one-piece keep.

Why our customers love our aluminium French doors

Enhanced Living Spaces

Aluminium French doors feature slimmer frames than timber or uPVC, allowing for larger glass panels and a greater amount of natural light in your home.

This light creates a brighter, more open living space while maintaining the sleek, modern aesthetic of your home.

Exceptional Durability

Highly resistant to corrosion, warping and fading, aluminium doors are incredibly durable, and highly suited to all weather conditions.

Their long-lasting nature means they require minimal maintenance and will continue to look great for years to come.

Energy Efficiency

Modern aluminium French doors are designed with thermal break technology, improving insulation and reducing heat loss.

This helps maintain a comfortable indoor temperature while lowering energy bills, making them an energy-efficient option.
