Choosing a type of material
There are several different options available for someone looking out for a new door. The main choices people opt for are UPVC, timber and aluminium. Timber is a strong material, but there is always a risk of warping and doors require ongoing treatment throughout their lives. uPVC doors are affordable, but weaker than both timber and aluminium options and don’t tend to last as long. This means that, for a commercial property, aluminium doors are typically the most versatile and reliable option.
