The Ultimate Steel Door Alternative

Alternatively Known as: Art-Deco Doors; Heritage Doors

Our Steel-Alternative Doors are engineered to be the perfect replacement for traditional steel doors. Where steel doorsdon’t have a thermal-break, they are prone to cold-bridging and rely heavily on incredibly over-spec’d krypton-filled glazing just to pass UK Building Regulations. Our aluminium alternatives contain a polyamide thermal-break in their design which allow for increased energy efficiency while maintaining that classic ‘Crittall-style’ sightlines.

Design

Stepped Design.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors are fabricated with a specially ‘stepped’ profile to closely mimic traditional hot-rolled steel sections.

Opening Direction.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors can be specified to open outwards or inwards, depending on your situation.

Handles & Hardware.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors come furnished with secure, key-lockable door handles and robust hinges for style and security.

Glass & Glazing.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors are glazed with energy-efficient Insulated Glass Units (IGUs) that we hand-manufacture and argon fill at our factory in Waterlooville.

Decorative Panels.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors can be glazed with a variety of plain, traditional, and modern colour-matched, reinforced, aluminium-skinned door panels.

Technology

Security & Locking.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors are manufactured with strong, multi-point locks which contain bi-directional ‘hooks’; ‘roller cams’; ‘shootbolts’; and a deadbolt.

Threshold Options.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors come with a variety of thresholds: from ‘full frame’ thresholds to wheelchair accessible ‘part M’ ramped thresholds.

Maintenance.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors are designed with wipe-clean profiles and easy-to-lubricate mechanisms.

Sustainability.

Our Steel-Alternative Doors are made of aluminium: a material with a typical 95% recycle rate and end-of-life.
