Hinged & French Door Configurations.
Standard
Our standard hinged aluminium doors feature a single panel that swings open. Our standard French doors consist of two panels, hinged on opposite sides of the frame, that swing open from the centre, creating an aluminium double door.
Open In & Open Out
Open in and open out frames are available for both hinged and French doors.
Opening Window
Hinged doors can incorporate an integrated opening window within the aluminium door frame, allowing for ventilation while the door remains closed, eliminating the need for additional space for sidelights or overlights.
Sidelights & Overlights
Additional window glazing can be installed above or beside hinged or French doors, with options for both fixed and operable windows to create aluminium doors with windows. This feature is recommended for areas that require increased natural light or enhanced ventilation.
