The rise of aluminium internal doors | Why is aluminium such a popular material in the home?

It is a timeless and green solution to dividing a living space

Enduring and aesthetically pleasing, aluminium fits well alongside a range of different interior design looks. Because of its sustainable characteristics, the demand for greener solutions in interior design is driving the increased use of aluminium in the home. The BES 6001 certificate demonstrates that manufacturers such as Origin source responsibly for their aluminium products, which is an important aspect to consider when finding a manufacturer to work with.

Monochrome colours and minimalistic designs are rising in popularity

Modern black internal doors, such as the OI-30 Internal Door, are increasingly being featured on social media by interior design influencers and home inspiration accounts, solidifying their place as a rising trend. Slim steel-look frames and monochrome colours such as black or white are recognisable as “less is more” modern features. Read our guide to supplying black internal room dividers here. Traditionally, a typical minimalist home decor often looks like neutral or light-coloured walls, paired against back decorations and furniture, with a splash of texture. Woods such as oak can make an effective pairing against aluminium and glass. Providing a classic black colour and a sleek, modern aesthetic, Origin Internal Doors can make a bold statement in the home without appearing too busy. This is something that many homeowners now look for when finding a new internal door.

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 and prevent the likelihood of marks and damage to the door.

Our OI-30 Internal Doors are powder coated to withstand relentless exposure to the elements and UV light, along with the everyday excitement and vigour of family life. You can then rest assured that you are supplying the best-quality doors to your customers.
