How to Choose Aluminum Doors?

2025,04,24

Aluminum alloy profiles have the characteristics of high strength, strong corrosion resistance, and are not easy to deform, making them a popular choice for Aluminum Doors. Why do some aluminum alloy doors lose shape before they are used for a year? After analysis, under normal use, the deformation of aluminum alloy doors may be caused by the thin thickness of the aluminum alloy profiles used. In the building materials market, profiles have various thicknesses such as 0.8 mm, 1.0 mm, and 1.2 mm. Among them, aluminum alloy doors with a thickness of more than 1.0 mm have better strength and will not deform in 5 to 8 years under normal use.

However, some small manufacturers cut corners to reduce production costs and even use aluminum alloy profiles with a thickness of only 0.6 mm to make bathroom doors. This type of aluminum alloy door is prone to deformation due to insufficient material thickness. Homeowners considering options that maximize ventilation might explore Aluminum Casement Doors for their design and functionality.

Sealing strip

Another feature of aluminum alloy doors is that they are highly decorative. In some building materials stores, most aluminum alloy doors are inlaid with artistic glass of various colors. These glasses are single-layer, and there are also double-layer hollow glass with strong three-dimensional sense and good sound insulation. For spaces where maximizing the opening is desired, consider the space-saving benefits of Aluminum Folding Doors.

When choosing aluminum alloy doors with inlaid glass, especially products with hollow glass design, you must pay attention to its sealing performance. If the sealing is not good, the hollow layer will be filled with dirt and dirt, affecting the appearance. Brand products use high-quality sealing strips and advanced hot-pressing sealing technology for all-round sealing treatment, which can effectively prevent dust and water, and have outstanding sound insulation effect. For wider openings and a seamless transition to the outdoors, Aluminum Lift And Slide Doors offer a sophisticated solution.

Check the sealing of the glass interlayer of the aluminum alloy door. In addition to checking whether the glass glue coating on the front is tight, you should also check whether the sealing strip on the glass on the back of the door is flat, and it is required to have no curling or de-grooving. In situations where space is at a premium but natural light and access are still desired, Aluminum Sliding Doors provide a practical and stylish alternative.

Process welding

The production process of aluminum alloy doors is relatively simple, and many small manufacturers can produce them, but the quality mainly depends on whether the production process is fine. The level of welding technology reflects the quality of aluminum alloy doors. High-quality aluminum alloy doors are finely processed and welded, especially some splicing parts are very flat. However, inferior aluminum alloy doors and windows blindly select aluminum profile series and specifications, and are shoddy in processing. The door frame corners and other positions cannot be spliced flat, and sometimes even large gaps appear.

When purchasing, special attention should be paid to checking for welding defects, such as open welding and leaking welding. It also depends on whether the door leaf and door frame are tightly closed, whether the gap is uniform, and whether the opening is flexible. After checking the welding process of the aluminum alloy door, you should also carefully check whether the paint surface of the product is bright in color and clear in texture. Note that the paint surface should not have obvious scratches, bubbles and other defects.

Accessories quality

Aluminum alloy doors are usually installed in humid environments such as bathrooms and kitchens. Therefore, the quality of hardware hinges, door handles and other accessories is the key to ensuring the service life of aluminum alloy doors. Consumers are very distressed when buying building materials for doors. Because they don’t know what kind of door to buy. Many consumers want to buy a cheap, high-quality and relatively sturdy door.

Some people who decorate their new homes suffer from poor quality hardware. Aluminum alloy bathroom doors are more durable, but they only pay attention to the quality of door leaves and door frames, ignoring hardware. The problem lies precisely in the hardware. The bathroom door has only been used for a short time, but the hinges are rusted, resulting in poor opening and closing, and it cannot be pushed or pulled.

In addition to checking whether the hinges of aluminum alloy doors are made of materials that are not easy to rust, it is best to choose stainless steel door locks, handles and other hardware to prevent rust from affecting use. When purchasing aluminum alloy doors, pay attention to checking the sealing of the glass interlayer.

Among the vast majority of existing buildings, more than 90% are high-energy-consuming buildings. In high-energy-consuming buildings, the energy consumption of doors and windows accounts for nearly half. The key to building energy saving is energy saving of doors and windows. Therefore, the use of energy-saving aluminum doors and windows is an objective requirement of the energy situation and an inevitable trend of market development.
