When choosing a garage door, one recommendation that we can freely give is aluminium garage doors. There are a lot of variables that you need to take into consideration with these kinds of doors like the material, style, color and even price range. But among the other types of material for garage doors, we recommend our aluminium garage doors.
They are also known as roller doors and make a wonderful alternative to your traditional garage doors. They have a horizontal curtain with interlocking slats that roll vertically on the opening (its top specifically). This kind of garage door provides a lot of advantages over traditional doors.
In this blog, we’ll talk about why they are the best choice for your home!
Sleek Look
An aluminium garage door provides a modern, sleek look that can complement any home design. Without excessive embellishment, the aluminium garage door features a clean, industrial aesthetic, perfect for homeowners seeking a minimalist, contemporary vibe. Its natural metallic finish adds sophistication, and you can easily customise the colour and style to suit your home’s exterior.
More Space
Traditional garage doors have a tendency of swinging up. On the other hand, our aluminium roller doors open in a vertical direction. This helps maximise headroom within your garage, allowing you more space.
On the level of safety, this aluminium garage door feature means that you won’t need a space for “swinging” outside your garage.
Insulation
Did you know? Aluminium itself is a conductive material and not exactly for its insulation properties. Insulation stops the transfer of heat or cold air from outside of your garage into your garage.
Those properties can be enhanced if you add more insulation to your garage door installation.
Low Maintenance
An aluminium roller door is easy to maintain and requires little maintenance. You may just need to scrub it and give a power wash so that it has a nice shine and looks brand new.
If you have a busy lifestyle and family then having one might be the way to go!
Weatherproof and Durable
Unpredictable weather? It’s certainly no match for our aluminium garage doors. They can outlast weather extremes ranging from heavy rain, harsh sunlight and even strong winds – perfect for Australian weather!
Security
Aluminium is the material of our choice for our roller doors. This strong material will make it hard to break into and give you maximum privacy.
Resistance to Corrosion
An aluminium garage door can resist corrosion because it can also withstand water. You will no longer have to worry about rust, rot or other damage that rainwater can cost. In climates where ice, wind, snow and even road salt can cause damage, having an aluminium garage door can come in handy.
