A clean, heritage-inspired finish

The ABS Home Improvements team recently supplied and fitted this set of black aluminium Heritage French doors for a homeowner in Botesdale.

The AluK 58BD ST HI system offers a modern aluminium alternative to traditional steel doors. Its slim frames and horizontal glazing bars create the strong, balanced appearance associated with heritage designs while allowing plenty of natural light through the large glazed panels.

Black door furniture was selected to match the frames, keeping every element of the finished installation consistent.

Slim aluminium sightlines

The narrow aluminium profiles create a lighter appearance than bulkier frame systems. They are particularly well suited to homes where the look of traditional steel doors is wanted without giving up modern glazing and day-to-day practicality.

Modern thermal performance

Thermally broken aluminium profiles help reduce heat transfer through the frame. Depending on the final specification, the 58BD ST HI system can achieve a door U-value of 1.4 W/m²K with a suitable 24mm double-glazed unit for refurbishment projects.

Strong and low maintenance

Aluminium provides a durable frame that does not need repainting like traditional timber or steel. The powder-coated black finish is easy to look after and retains the crisp lines of the design.

Made with recycled aluminium

According to the manufacturer, 78% of the aluminium billet used for this system comes from recycled content, combining long service life with a more responsible use of materials.

Heritage styling for traditional and modern homes

Aluminium Heritage doors can work with period-inspired renovations, barn conversions and contemporary extensions. Single and double-door configurations are available with a choice of frame sizes, glazing and colours, so the finished design can be tailored to the property.

For this Botesdale installation, the all-black finish gives the doors a strong architectural look while the generous glazing helps retain an open connection with the garden.
