Aluminium Doors vs. Wooden Doors

If you are looking to upgrade the doors in your home, you’re making an investment for the future. The humble door is an essential part of your property. After all, without them, you would essentially be living in a box!

A door can be manufactured to suit the requirements of any establishment. Today we’re going to look at aluminium and wooden doors to find out which ones suit you best.

Understanding the Disadvantages

Aluminium doors can have their downfalls. It is important to understand these drawbacks before making the investment.

Aluminium doors:

Can be easily water stained
Will corrode quicker if precautions against electrolysis are not taken
Require specialised equipment for welding

We strongly recommend having your aluminium doors installed by a professional. Too often, people are getting injured trying to conduct work they have no knowledge of. Safety should be considered always when it comes to aluminium door installation.

Don’t Forget about Wooden Doors!

Not everyone who requires a new door wants to invest in aluminium. That’s ok, we have a great range of wooden doors for your property, too. Our range of wooden doors is made using Jarrah, Meranti and Western Red Cedar.

Wooden doors are perfect for any home. Why? Because wood is:

A bad conductor of electricity and heat. This makes it less prone to condensation
Not affected by temperature
Easy to maintain
Cost-effective to install
An attractive entry to any building
Able to be painted or polished to match your interior and furnishings

Wooden doors have been around for centuries because they’re a cost-effective and low-maintenance material. Best of all, wood is easy to install and it can be polished time and time again!
