Common questions
How slim are the sightlines on aluminium heritage steel-look doors?
Heritage steel-look doors run slim frame faces, with slender meeting stiles that copy old wrought iron and steel windows. Thin profiles keep more glass on view for a period-correct look while the aluminium carries the strength. See the heritage doors page, and confirm leaf sizes and sightlines at quote.
Can heritage steel-look doors be used internally as well as externally?
Yes. Inside they divide kitchens, living spaces and hallways; outside they fit as entrance, side and rear doors, with air, water and wind performance confirmed at quote and a low-threshold option for level access. Same slim faces throughout. Browse the steel-look internal doors or start a quote.
What glazing and U-values do heritage steel-look doors achieve?
Heritage doors take Georgian-style bars in a configurable grid, from a single horizontal bar to a full multi-pane layout. The glass make-up, any acoustic target and the whole-unit U-value depend on each other, so we confirm them together with the grid and pane sizes at quote.
How secure are aluminium heritage steel-look doors?
What finishes are available on heritage steel-look aluminium doors?
Heritage steel-look doors are powder-coated across RAL, dual-colour and anodised-style routes, with matt black the most popular for an authentic steel look. Internal and external faces can differ. Finishes are durable and low-maintenance. For homeowner projects we route enquiries to vetted installers via find an installer; confirm colour at quote.
