Easy Maintenance
Aluminium is an incredibly low maintenance material, and thus our aluminium doors require very little upkeep to look their best. In fact, all that’s needed from you as the homeowner is to give the door an occasional wide down with a cloth and soapy water.
When you do this, you’ll need to pay particular attention to the moving components, ensuring they don’t get clogged up with dust or debris. However, you will never need to varnish the topcoat, thanks to Smart’s innovative fade proof technology. It will also look as good as new.
Thermally Broken Design
The profile of our aluminium doors has been thermally broken. This is where internal chambers are fitted, which individually work to prevent cold air from passing into your home. The result is a naturally warmer house, even during the cooler winter months and evenings.
Upgrading to one of our aluminium doors is, therefore, a superb way of improving your home’s overall thermal efficiency. If you get one of these doors fitted alongside some of Castle Glass’ stunning windows, you could even see your monthly energy bills decrease over time.
Modern Locking Systems
The front door is the first point of safety in the home. With this, it needs to be strong, secure, durable and fitted with modern locking systems. Our aluminium doors tick all those boxes, coming with multipoint locks that protect the door in several places.
This minimises the number of the weak spots these residential doors have. Doing this makes it incredibly difficult for someone to break in. Even so, the durable, tough aluminium profile will prove very difficult to damage. You can rest easy at night, knowing you’re protected.
Low Threshold
Our aluminium doors come with the option of a low threshold if needed. Doing this makes the bottom line of the sash thinner during production, allowing it to protrude off the ground less than normal. The result of this is complete ease of access for everyone.
This is essential if you have wheelchair users in your family or younger children that are still in pushchairs. Not only will it be easier to enter and exit through your new front door, but you won’t have to worry about causing structural damage by bumping into a higher threshold.
Weatherproofing
Our aluminium doors come with Smart’s high performance weather strips. These ensure that your home is protected against the elements, with water being filtered away from the door, rather than seeping through. You have total peace of mind, even during harsh rainfall.
Complete weatherproofing prevents the likes of damp spots, rotting and water damage from affecting your home. All three of these are expensive, messy fixes. Make the upgrade to one of our stunning aluminium doors today to prevent any of these happening in your home.
Long Lasting
Aluminium has many natural benefits. Among these is its impressive inherent lifespan, which sees aluminium home improvements regularly last for decades before showing signs of wear and tear. This is much longer than uPVC or timber front doors can last.
With this, our aluminium doors actually make for a smart long term investment. While they may come at a premium compared with an entry level front door, the extra years of usage you get before it needs refurbishing could prove invaluable in decades to come.
