Traditional Steel Replica
Our range of Alitherm heritage doors is perfect for traditional projects where steel replacements are necessary. Aluminium has numerous benefits over steel: it’s lighter, more energy efficient with a thermal polyamide break, and aluminium is far less likely to develop rust. There’s no need to worry about compromising the classic steel door design either, with the right finish modern aluminium frames can look virtually identical to heritage steel doors.

Security
Rest assured that our Aluminium heritage doors have some of the most effective multi-point locking systems available. Our extensive PAS 24 upgrade includes a wide range of enhanced features required for new-builds and as standard the doors are fitted with high security cylinders for true safeguarding.

Do Aluminium heritage doors need trickle vents?
With trickle vents, there’s never a one size fits all answers, but the consensus would be yes. We’ve developed a handy tool to help you determine what’s required to comply with building regulations for your project. Please note because of the slim frame used to make the doors, trickle vents will need to be fitted into an add-on above the door frame. You can choose between the classic link vent or a flush vent.
