While shopping for screen doors, you may have realized that a lot of them have aluminum features. If you take a walk on your street, you can see many doors and window frames made of aluminum. Why is that so? When it comes to doors, especially external ones, they are subjected to a lot of external elements. Sunlight, rain, and incredibly strong winds. Therefore, they must have frames that can withstand those weather elements. Screen door aluminum is a great option because it lightweight, tough, and can withstand many weather conditions. Here are some of the factors that make aluminum a great option for homes.
Here is a good example. Imagine a steel door outside. For the first year or the second year, it'll look beautiful. Then the rust will begin. Little orange spots will show, especially on the bottom and around the screws. Rust is the metal's worst enemy. While the door frame will be destroying the metal below the rust, the aluminum frame will not have rust, will be saving the metal below it, and will be holding strong. Aluminum, when exposed to the air, will begin to rust, will form around a super thin, invisible layer of oxide. This layer will not be sticking over speeds and provides a shield for the rest of the metal, holding it strong. For all of these reasons, you will be assured peace of mind.
Yes, aluminum is lightweight for easy carrying and hanging of an aluminum-framed screen door, but its lightweight nature should not come off as too simple aluminum is described as a very strong material in most parts of its written documentation because it holds its shape well, and does not warp or twist easily. The material's durability is of utmost concern to the door construction because of the potential for constant opening and closing of the door. The framework of the door must stay perfectly square in order for everything to function as it should to ensure a close seal, and to ensure that the screen mesh material is kept tight. Weaker material alternatives may bend or sag over time causing gaps to form. The shape and construction of a good aluminum frame particularly one that is designed and constructed by an experienced manufacturer such as Techo, ensures that it will retain its shape for an extended duration.
Outdoors facing doors have to stand up to all weather challenges. Sun's UV rays can discolor and damage even fade free UV. Wood can rot, and plastic can become brittle and crack. Aluminum does not care about the sun. It does not get damaged by UV light. Rain does not bother Aluminum. It gives it a good wash and does not rust or rot. Extreme dryness, heat, and extreme cold can happen and aluminum does not expand or contract. This means your door works smoothly no matter the weather during the season.
Nobody wants to spend their weekend steaming or refurbishing a door. With an aluminum frame, you don't have to. They are incredibly low upkeep. There is no need to paint one to protect it from the elements. Instead, the color is baked on in a process called powder coating, which is tough enough to last for years without further treatment, and it won't peel or fade. All you have to do is a little bit of maintenance. Wipe it down, and it is good to go, no sanding, painting, or worrying about rot. A quick clean, and it looks as good as new.

Because aluminum is a class 99, meaning a quality retention, material when recycled, maintaining landfill levels and natural resources is realized when aluminum frames are used.
