Are aluminium doors better than uPVC?

Aluminium doors are generally stronger than uPVC, allowing for slimmer sightlines and the ability to accommodate larger panel sizes, resulting in a more modern and sleek aesthetic. uPVC, in contrast, is more prone to warping when exposed to heat, which can affect both its functionality and lifespan.

How long do aluminium sliding doors last?

On average, uPVC doors last between 20 and 35 years, while aluminium doors can last up to 45 years, making them a more long-term investment. With their superior strength, durability, and resistance to the elements, aluminium doors are the better choice for those seeking both performance and style.

Aluminium sliding doors are highly durable and can last up to 45 years with proper maintenance, making them a long-term investment. In comparison, uPVC sliding doors typically last between 25 and 35 years, depending on maintenance. The superior strength and resistance to the elements of aluminium contribute to its extended lifespan, making it the more durable choice.
