What are the key benefits of supplying single internal aluminium doors?
When you choose Origin, your customers are guaranteed reliability and a high-quality product for their home. Aluminium is an extremely strong, durable, and secure material. Quality continues to be a key priority for buyers, with our recent survey finding that 58% of homeowners agree that buying higher-quality materials, such as aluminium, is more beneficial than buying low-quality items that they will inevitably need to replace. Aluminium has almost twice the lifespan of timber, making an aluminium internal door a better long-term investment for customers in comparison to options such as an oak internal door. Aluminium is also fully recyclable, and UK consumers are becoming more conscious about buying eco-friendly materials, further securing aluminium doors as a highly in-demand option.
Additionally, our internal doors can be tailored to your customers’ exact needs, ensuring they will provide complete customer satisfaction. Featuring large glass panels and Georgian-style bars, our internal doors will allow your customers to utilise natural light, creating an illusion of spaciousness even when used in a smaller room.

Advising customers on choosing the best configuration option for them | When is a single room divider recommended?
Part of what sets Origin apart as a manufacturer is the wide range of bespoke options available to customers, providing them with the perfect choice for their space. Origin Internal Doors allow customers to choose a door in either a Single door, French door, Fixed screen or a combination with a corner post to create a corner configuration. The right configuration option for your customer depends on the space they have available and their preferred aesthetic. If your customer is using a room divider in a smaller room or has less space available, a single room divider or single door may be more ideal for them rather than an internal French door.
Internal single doors are also ideal if your customers have a narrower opening size. For example – they are often used for narrow utility rooms or may be used for an entryway to a small home office or kitchen space.

Can customers choose whether their single room divider opens inwards or outwards?
When buying from a high-quality, bespoke manufacturer such as Origin – customers can choose whether their doors open inwards or outwards. This allows the flexibility of making the most of a space, particularly if customers are using the OI-30 interior door in a smaller room, such as a small study room or hallway where there is restricted space. When choosing which way an internal glazed door opens – take into the space your customer has on each side and which option would be more practical. Choosing a bespoke supplier, such as Origin, ultimately allows your customers to have more freedom and choice, resulting in a perfect option for their living or commercial space.

Why are internal room dividers so popular?
Addressing the need for hybrid working and versatile living spaces has become a key focus for numerous homeowners. This shift is likely influenced by the increase in remote and hybrid working in the UK in recent years. Internal room dividers featuring glass have gained notable popularity because of their capacity to delineate areas within the home without sacrificing natural light.
What is the best internal door style?
The best internal door style for a customer depends on the aesthetics of their home and what colour would complement their interior design. According to Origin’s recent study, 70% of homeowners would rather stick to classic and go for black interior doors over any other colour, followed by white internal doors as the second most popular option. This research is evidence that classy, minimalist options are timeless and here to stay.
What is a powder coated aluminium frame?
Powder coating is the process of applying a dry, electrostatically charged powdered paint to an object (usually one made of metal). Once painted, the object is heated in an oven at a very high temperature so the powder particles bond together and form a coating. Choosing to supply doors with a powder coated finish can help improve the durability of your customers’ doors.

What internal door colour option should you advise customers to choose?
You can advise your customer on the ideal colour option for them depending on the style of their property, their home’s interior colours, and whether they want to match the door to other doors in their property for a consistent appearance.
