Why Aluminium Doors Are the Smart Choice
Weather-resistant
Aluminium doesn’t warp, swell, or rot, making it perfect for South Africa’s varied climates.
Strength & security
Robust frames provide peace of mind for both residential and commercial spaces.
Built for South African Conditions
Aluminium doors are particularly well-suited to the South African climate. In humid coastal cities like Durban and Cape Town, they resist corrosion and moisture damage far better than wooden alternatives. In the hotter inland regions, aluminium’s stability means no swelling or cracking, which is a problem wooden doors often face.
Beyond practicality, aluminium is also fully recyclable, and modern production methods mean a lower carbon footprint compared to timber harvesting.
