Frequently asked questions:

What is an Industrial Style door?

Industrial style doors are also commonly referred to as metal frame doors, Art Deco doors, loft style doors etc.

Piazza industrial style doors are made in anodised aluminium. The manufacturing processes used to make steel doors and aluminium doors are very different. Steel tends to have a more 'rustic' look and feel, with hammered profiles and joints that are sometimes welded. The glass is supplied in individual pieces and fitted into the metal profiles with silicone (wet glazing).

Piazza doors provide a more contemporary look with very slimline profiles that do not rust. The high precision nature of aluminium means that enhanced hardware options are available. It is possible to integrate matching locks and handles, and use concealed hinge options. Furthermore, the glazing method means that silicone is not necessary. The combination of product features in aluminium Piazza doors gives a modern style and superb function.

Do you make fire doors?

Our doors are made in aluminium and the melting point of aluminium means that it would not be a suitable material for the manufacture of fire rated doors. It should be noted that, where fire rated doors in this style are required, steel doors are the only option.

We are aware that some suppliers of steel doors are selling their doors with fire rated glass and stating compliance. However, it is important to remember that compliance with fire regulations relates to the whole product specification and installation, and your building inspector may reject such a product.

Which are better, steel doors or aluminium doors?

Each material has it's own features and benefits, and we really couldn't say that either is better than the other.

Are aluminium doors cheaper than steel?

As a raw material, steel is more expensive than aluminium. However, the lower cost of the aluminium can be offset by the upgraded hardware options. Aluminium industrial style doors are generally lower in cost than steel alternatives, but it really depends on the specification and the quality of the hardware.

Our doors are made in Italy using only the very best quality profiles, glass and hardware. The enhanced hardware and sliding systems enables us to offer full height hinged doors, large door panels in sliding doors and variations such as bifolding and pocket doors.
