Double & Triple Glazed uPVC + Aluminium Doors
Double & Triple Glazed uPVC + Aluminium Doors
uPVC + Aluminium combination doors are a new and increasingly popular material choice. This system combines the superior thermal and acoustic performance of a uPVC frame with the strength, stability and colour diversity of aluminium. The uPVC frame has aluminium cladding externally. SCS powder coats or anodizes the surface of the aluminium in a wide range of finishes. The external aluminium cladding also gives the door a modern and stylish appearance. The special bonding technology, which combines these two fantastic materials, allows for greater design flexibility in terms of the window finish, size and configuration.
Our uPVC + Aluminium combination doors form part of our high-end imported range of double and triple glazed doors. The profile is also available in the matching window system for the complete package to support all projects.

The external aluminium cladding offers limitless possibilities in colour design, whilst the uPVC profile ensures the low maintenance, dimensional stability and thermal and acoustic performance of the window unit.
Together these materials create a structural stable and durable product, with immense structural capabilities allowing large sized units and spans to be created. uPVC + Aluminium doors are an attractive choice for all projects, including both business premises and high-end architectural homes. uPVC + Aluminium doors are available in double and triple glazed for superior thermal and acoustic performance.
SCS only uses the best and most reputable materials for its products. Our uPVC profiles are supplied by Koemmerling, the leading profile manufacturer in Germany and internationally. This allows us to bring the latest designs and technology to the Australian market.
uPVC + Aluminium doors can be supplied in a range of colours and finishes. The uPVC profile can be left as the standard profile colour of white, or it can be laminated in a range of standard foils. More information on the uPVC finishes can be seen on the uPVC doors page and the standard uPVC laminate range can be accessed via the Downloads tab.
The external aluminium cladding can be powder coated in a wide variety of colours from the RAL colour range. The RAL colour chart can be accessed via the link below.
The type of glazing selected for a door can influence the daylight transmission, thermal properties, sound insulation, safety, privacy and security of the whole window unit. It is essential that the glazing type is specified carefully for each project to ensure the end product provides a healthy, comfortable, temperature stable and quiet environment.
To achieve this balance, modern glazing technology has advanced to provide a wide variety of glass types and coatings. Double and triple glazed doors can use these glass types in combination in order to achieve the desired outcome. Double glazing combines two layers of glass, with an insulated spacer in order to increase the thermal insulation of a door. Triple glazing combines 3 layers of glass with two insulated spacers in order to achieve greater thermal insulation.
SCS supplies double and triple glazed doors in a wide variety of shapes and configurations. The shape of the door and opening type can influence the thermal and acoustic insulation, security, safety and structural strength of the door.
Lift & Slide Door
European alternative to a standard sliding door. The moveable panel is lifted by the mechanism when operated. When closed the movable panel is dropped into the track, creating compression on the seals. This system is designed for increased thermal, acoustic and security performance. The hardware mechanism of the Lift & Slide door allows these doors to be made to extremely large spans in a 2-panel configuration, whilst still allowing smooth and easy operation.
Tilt & Slide Door
Another popular European style opening, where the openable section tilts inwards at the top for ventilation and slides past the fixed panel. When closed the openable section pushes into the seals of the frame, increasing compression on the seals and reducing air penetration.
Single & Double Doors
Standard side hinged doors can be made in inwards or outwards openings. In some materials, these doors can be made with a tilt & turn function in order to provide secure ventilation. Double door openings are commonly used for larger areas, often used as an entry to a terrace, veranda or garden.
Bi-Fold Doors
Bi-fold doors are folding doors that were originally used as interior doors and furniture doors. Nowadays, they are used as room dividers, especially for large entertainment areas, such as terraces, verandas and balconies. Bi-fold doors are a popular and attractive feature for both high-end residential projects and commercial buildings.
The door security and overall appearance can be greatly influenced by the type and style of hardware used. Mounting a high quality, well finished handle to a door can completely change the design.
SCS supplies a range of handles for all our door systems in standard colours; silver, white, black, brown and bronze.
Flyscreens are an important component of all residential and commercial properties. They are mainly used as a barrier against insects, however with changing technology they can fulfill many other purposes besides preventing the intrusion of insects. Different materials types and configurations can be used for insect prevention (standard flywire), bush fire protection (metal mesh) and security (steel mesh and diamond grill screens).
For door installations, often a custom screen solution is required as every installation is different. SCS has a range of specialised screen contractors to engage, in order to supply a seamlessly integrated and practical screen solution.
There are multiple screen types available to suit door systems. The type of door, location and install conditions will influence the screening option available. The most common types of screens available for doors are hinged security doors (single and double), sliding screen doors (track system) and retractable screen doors.
Glazing bars and colonial bars are an important decorative door feature in many architectural designs. SCS supplies a range of products with glazing bars, colonial bars and glazing separators to suit your needs, whether you are creating a Hampton style home, preserving the character of a Federation style home, matching heritage overlay or enhancing an architectural element.
Glazing bar products are applicable to single, double and triple glazed doors. Glazing and colonial bars are available in all materials types (uPVC, timber, aluminium etc.) and in a variety of profiles and styles to suit your project requirements (e.g. heritage, modern etc.).
