Nothing Says Smart Like an Aluminium Front Door
A front door is the first impression and gives a hint at what can be found within the house. If you want a smart, modern look nothing beats aluminium.
An aluminium door will complement any home and has a number of benefits.
Typically thought of as sleek with chic battleship greys or deeper charcoal colours, aluminium doors actually have more diversity in choice and can suit a wide range of homes.
We have several aluminium entrance doors on display in our Cardiff showroom.
Create a First Impression
Your door reflects your tastes and creates that all-important first impression. Your entrance door must complement the style of your property but also needs to be functional and secure. You’ll want your door to be durable enough to withstand everyday use and secure enough to protect your property against intruders.
A choice of different styles and many colours enables you to design front, back or side aluminium doors that are personal to your home. From classic to contemporary, intriguing to bold, a wide range of options means you have the freedom to choose a style that is right for you.
We cover Swansea, Cardiff, Newport, the Vale of Glamorgan and surrounding areas.
Modern Aluminium Doors
In the early 80s, many homes had aluminium sliding doors which were often draughty and difficult to slide but a lot has changed since then. In addition to super smooth sliding aluminium doors and bi-fold doors, there is a wide range of stunning aluminium front doors to choose from. Naturally, they are heavier in theory but modern developments in hinges and closing mechanisms means that as far as the user is concerned they may as well be light as air.
A Diverse Range of Aluminium Door Styles
Aluminium doors are thought of as ultra-modern but even if you’re looking for a front door design that will suit a more traditional house, the diverse range of aluminium door styles means that you will find a style and colour that’s a little bit different but will suit. You have the same flexibility as you do with Upvc and composite doors, in that the side panels of the aluminium door can be made-to-measure and you can have glass panels at the top of the door and glass panels to the side of the door, to let in additional light and frame your door with extra style.
Fully Customisable
You can choose your own colour of aluminium doors as well as the type of glass used. Other customisable features include the insulation level to suit your needs, since aluminium front doors can be manufactured with thermally broken frames. This manufacturing process includes a barrier in between the outside and inside of the door frame to stop conductive thermal energy loss, therefore providing greater insulation and thermal efficiency than other doors.

High Performance Aluminium Sliding Doors
Of course, you will want to know that these high-performing doors that look stunning and last a long time also keep you warm. You’ll be pleased to know that Origin sliding doors can achieve amazing thermal results.
There is still a notion leftover from those who suffered from early metal doors that aluminium doors are cold. This was because metal is a heat conductor. Cold from the glass was transferred onto the frames. In recent years, glazing has improved and good quality aluminium patio doors have thermal breaks. In simple terms, this means that there is a material between the glass and frame that stops the cold from being transferred to the frames.

Sliding Doors
Smooth Sliding Aluminium Sliding Doors
Although aluminium doors are often chosen because of their sleek modern design, they are also a practical, and sometimes the only option for larger openings. An aluminium frame is made only of aluminium where a uPVC door has an aluminium inner but uPVC outer. More aluminium equals more strength. This means that the frame can hold much more weight even though they are slimmer than their uPVC counterparts. The slimmest frame available in aluminium is a mere 20mm. You'll barely be aware of them.
Aluminium doors can be made a whole metre taller than uPVC doors so if your opening is more than 2.4 metres high, aluminium will be the best choice for you.
French Doors
Aluminium French Doors for Classic Style
Aluminium French Doors are a great addition to any home. French doors are popular for opening up the back of one room rather than for wider expanses. As French doors are often smaller than other patio doors, they particularly benefit from the slimmer frames, allowing more view and light.
Our French doors are completely bespoke, crafted to your precise measurements with customisable colour and handle options.
As Strong as Steel
Aluminium doors are made from a composite material. It is designed to be as strong as steel for security and stability whilst remaining light in weight. This enables doors made from aluminium to be made bigger and to feature a larger glass area than UPVC or wooden front doors.
More glass allows maximum light to enter and, due to the strength of aluminium, security isn’t compromised. Balancing strength with weight, aluminium doors are tougher and more robust than other kinds of front doors and provide greater security and protection. Your door can also include security locking systems just like any other front door, firmly securing the door in place for extra peace of mind.
