Aluminium French doors offer a perfect balance of modern aesthetics, structural strength, and long-term durability. When you choose your external doors from Express Doors Direct, you get premium-grade manufacturing designed to withstand the elements while keeping your project on time and within budget.
Everything in our range of aluminium french doors delivers top-tier performance on site, combining the classic elegance of double doors with the cutting-edge benefits of precision engineering. We supply everything with clear pricing that includes VAT, alongside free delivery on orders over £750, making it easier to manage your margins and avoid hidden site costs.
Security remains a primary concern for any external renovation, which is why our aluminium French doors feature robust protection systems. Aluminium is inherently rigid, making the door frames incredibly resilient against twisting, warping, or forced entry attempts compared to alternative materials.
To reinforce this natural strength, we equip our doors with multi point locking systems that secure the frame at seven distinct points. This heavy-duty locking hardware distributes pressure evenly along the frame, creating a secure barrier that protects your property and meets strict building security standards.
Our exterior French doors feature thermally broken aluminium frames to combat the traditional heat loss associated with metal doors. This design incorporates an insulated barrier between the interior and exterior profiles, which stops thermal bridging and prevents cold air from transferring into the property.
Paired with high-performance double glazing, these thermal breaks trap heat inside during the winter and keep rooms cool during the summer. This energy-efficient construction helps lower energy bills, prevents condensation buildup, and ensures compliance with current thermal regulations.
The external frames undergo a premium powder-coating process that provides a resilient, weather-resistant finish guaranteed for 30 years or more. This industrial-grade coating eliminates the need for regular painting, sanding, or varnishing, ensuring the doors require virtually no maintenance after installation. The finish resists fading, peeling, and discolouration, even when exposed to harsh weather and direct sunlight. You can select from contemporary anthracite grey aluminium or classic white to complement the architectural style of your property.
Every property has unique layout requirements, so we provide extensive sizing flexibility to match your specific structural openings. Alongside our standard stock sizes that allow for fast turnaround times on site, we offer made to measure options tailored to your exact measurements. If your project demands custom dimensions, bespoke hardware configurations, or specific glazing patterns, you can explore our custom patio doors page to request a detailed quote. This bespoke service ensures a precise fit first time, eliminating the need for costly adjustments or modifications during installation.
Aluminium is a really stable, reliable material for external french doors. Whilst other door frame materials tend to expand, contract, twist and warp slightly as temperatures and weather conditions change, aluminium is unlikely to do so. This means minor door problems like sticking or drafts are less likely to occur. You won’t need minor adjustments to keep your aluminium door running perfectly. It’s also extremely secure due to its stability.
On top of this aluminium is exceptionally strong and lightweight, allowing for minimal, slim frames and larger glass panels to let more light into your home. Despite being a metal, modern manufacturing processes allow external aluminium French patio doors to be highly energy efficient too.
Frequently Asked Questions
French aluminium doors are usually more expensive than uPVC options because of their durability, slim frames, and modern appearance. In the UK, supply-only prices for aluminium French doors often range between £2,000 and £3,000 depending on the size, glazing, and finish you choose. Bespoke or larger designs can cost even more.
Neither option is universally “better”, it depends on your priorities. Aluminium French doors are stronger, longer-lasting, and offer slimmer sightlines for a more modern look, while uPVC French doors are more affordable and provide excellent insulation with minimal maintenance. Homeowners often choose aluminium for premium aesthetics and durability, and uPVC for value and cost-effectiveness.
The main disadvantage of aluminium doors is their higher upfront cost compared with uPVC alternatives. They can also be more expensive to repair if damaged, and lower-quality aluminium frames may transfer heat more easily if they do not include modern thermal breaks. However, high-quality aluminium doors like ours are a great choice because they're extremely durable, low maintenance, and resistant to warping or corrosion.
Yes, aluminium doors are generally more expensive than uPVC doors. In many cases, aluminium French doors cost around 25–40% more, although premium systems can be significantly higher depending on the design and specification. The higher price reflects the material’s strength, longer lifespan, slimmer frames, and more premium finish options.
