Aluminium Sliding Doors
When you choose your patio doors, you’re not just choosing an entrance; you’re choosing a way of life. The right patio doors can transform how you interact with your home and the environment. When you choose the right patio doors, you will love looking at them while they’re closed; open and close them just for the sheer beauty of experiencing the glide and feel safe whether you’re at home or away.
Premium grade aluminium allows the creation of slim frames that still have the strength of steel despite weighing 67% less. While steel may be cheaper, its weight would not allow the doors to move so effortlessly. This combination of strength, lightness and precision engineering facilitates the creation of doors that don’t just slide – they glide.
Durable Aluminium
The beauty of superb quality aluminium doors is that they look fresh for many years with no more maintenance than the occasional wipe. Classic styling gives a timeless appeal that will complement your home for many years, and the premium grade aluminium and durable powder coating means that you won’t have to change them just because of degradation.
Environmentally Friendly
It’s good to know that your choices don’t have to negatively affect the environment. Aluminium is infinitely recyclable. Here at Heath Windows and Doors, we take sustainability and our responsibility to the environment seriously, and so do our manufacturers. Origin continually strives and achieves standards for ISO 140001 Environmental management Accreditation.
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.
Weather Tight Seals
No matter how much it rains, you can be sure that water will not come in at the bottom of your doors. If you choose to have a sunken track for a level floor, please do so on doors with some shelter. Ask for more information about this.
Highest Grade Aluminium
All our aluminium suppliers use the finest grade aluminium. This is essential to achieve the standards for security, durability and long-lasting style. Origin’s attention to exceeding standards allows them to confidently offer up to 20 years guarantee.
Origin for Safety and Security
You should never have to sacrifice security for style. That’s why Origin takes a holistic approach to the design of their aluminium doors. Origin believes that every aspect of your aluminium doors should exceed expectations. That includes security. Home security should never be compromised, and as such, Origin has a dedicated Research & Development team to ensure all of our products are PAS:24 2016 compliant. Origin is also Secured by Design accredited.
8-Point Locking
The patio slider door locks firmly into the jam or adjacent door depending on which system you use. With a minimum of 6 points of locking, you can be confident that nothing other than the key will open these doors.
Finger Safe
There’s no chance of squashing little fingers with good quality sliding doors. Finger safe gaskets and magnetic catches mean that you don’t have to panic when little ones try to be ‘helpful’. Every track is concealed, so there’s less chance of catching fingers and toes. You can even opt for a recessed track for completely seamless integration with the patio.
Your doors will glide smootly meaning that there will be no tugging or hefting of the doors to open and close them.
Aluminium vs Wood and uPVC
The innate strength of aluminium means that it won’t flex, twist, expand or contract. It is water content that causes expansion and contraction in wood. Wooden windows are susceptible to changing weather conditions as it is highly absorbent and can overdry in direct sunlight. uPVC changes with heat and can warp over time. Both are valid choices for most homes and will last a reasonable amount of time. They are usually guaranteed for ten years, so are perfectly acceptable. While the initial outlay for aluminium doors is higher, the investment pays for itself over time as they will not need to be replaced. Origin backs that claim with up to 20 years guarantee.Â

Cost of Aluminium Windows Compared to uPVC
When compared to aluminium windows, uPVC windows come out on top in terms of cost and are an estimated 20% less than aluminium. You also have more variety for quality standards with uPVC. You can buy extremely cheap windows but they are rarely worth it in the long term. Stretching the budget a bit could prove well worth it when build quality and finish are taken into account regardless of which material you choose.
