Aluminium Pivot Doors

Large feature entrance doors that rotate on pivot points rather than conventional side hinges. Ideal for wide entrances and contemporary architectural designs.

Aluminium Door Sizes

Aluminium doors are available in a wide range of sizes, from compact single entrance doors to large sliding and folding systems. Choosing the correct size starts with the structural opening, door type and configuration required.

 

Standard Aluminium Door Sizes

Standard sizes are practical when your building opening can be designed or adjusted around a readily available door. Common examples include 900 × 2100mm single hinged doors, 1800 × 2100mm double hinged doors, and sliding doors from approximately 1500mm to 6000mm wide. Standard sliding-door configurations include two-panel OX and four-panel OXXO designs.

Standard sizes generally make it easier to compare specifications and aluminium door prices before ordering.

Custom Aluminium Door Sizes

Not every opening fits a standard door. Custom aluminium doors can be manufactured to suit specific widths, heights, configurations and architectural requirements.

Custom sizing is particularly useful for renovations, oversized openings, folding doors and large Palace sliding doors. Palace systems can also accommodate taller configurations, with popular heights including 2100mm, 2400mm and 2700mm. Always confirm the opening dimensions and required installation tolerances before manufacturing.

Aluminium Door Configurations

Aluminium door configurations determine how the panels open, the usable opening and the overall appearance of the door.

OX Sliding Doors

An OX door has one fixed panel (O) and one sliding panel (X). It is a simple, space-saving option for patios, balconies and living areas.

OXXO Sliding Doors

An OXXO door has two fixed outer panels and two centre sliding panels. The centre panels slide away from the middle, creating a balanced opening for wider patios and entertainment areas.

Single & Double Hinged Doors

Single hinged doors have one opening leaf for everyday access. Double hinged doors have two opening leaves, allowing a wider clear opening when both are opened.

Folding & Stacking Door Configurations

Folding doors use multiple hinged panels that fold and stack to the side. Common 3, 5 and 7-panel configurations are ideal for wide patios, braai areas and entertainment spaces.

Aluminium Sliding Door Prices

Standard patio sliding doors are generally one of the more affordable ways to create a large glazed opening. Prices increase with the width of the door and the number of sliding panels. A standard OX sliding door starts from approximately R6,430, while larger four-panel configurations cost more.

Hinged & Entrance Door Prices

Standard aluminium entrance doors currently start from approximately R5,840. The popular SHD921 single hinged door, 900 × 2100mm, is currently R6,120.50. Larger double hinged doors cost more because they use two operating leaves, additional hardware and more aluminium and glass.

Aluminium Pivot Door Prices

A 1200 × 2100mm aluminium pivot door currently starts from approximately R8,550, with prices increasing according to the selected design, glass and finish. Pivot doors are typically chosen for wider feature entrances where a larger door panel is required.

Aluminium Folding & Stacking Door Prices

Folding and stacking doors cost more than standard hinged or sliding doors because they use multiple panels, hinges, rollers, tracks and operating hardware.

Current examples include:

Folding Door Size Current Price
3 Panel 1800 × 2100mm R12,980.10 – R15,430.50
3 Panel 2400 × 2100mm R15,202 – R16,850.15
5 Panel 3600 × 2100mm R21,304.05 – R24,572.10
5 Panel 4200 × 2400mm R27,736 – R30,916
7 Panel 6000 × 2100mm R34,250 – R38,800.60
7 Panel 6300 × 2400mm R39,620 – R43,120.20

As the opening becomes wider or taller, more aluminium, glass and hardware are required, which increases the overall door price.

Palace Sliding Door Prices

Palace is a heavier-duty sliding-door system suited to larger panels, wider openings and taller doors. Current Palace sliding door prices include:

Palace Door Size Current Price
OX 1800 × 2100mm R11,849 – R13,620.15
OX 2400 × 2100mm R14,100 – R16,410.15
OX 3000 × 2100mm R16,500.20 – R19,010.15
OXXO 3600 × 2100mm R22,255.85 – R26,680.10
OXXO 5400 × 2100mm R29,010.95 – R33,875.15
OXXO 6000 × 2100mm R29,385.95 – R34,220.05
OXXO 6000 × 2400mm R33,500.05 – R38,740.95

Palace door prices can therefore vary substantially according to width, height, configuration and selected options.

What Affects Aluminium Door Prices?

When comparing aluminium door prices, don’t look at size alone. The final cost can be affected by the door system, number of panels, frame colour, glass specification, locks, handles, hinges, rollers and other hardware.

Also check whether the quoted amount is for supply only or supply and installation. Delivery, installation, removal of existing doors and alterations to the building opening may be additional costs.

Prices are indicative and may change. Always check the individual product for the latest price and specifications, or request a quotation for custom aluminium doors.

Aluminium Door Colours & Finishes

The colour of an aluminium door can change the character of an entrance, patio or façade. Sigmadoors offers a selection of popular aluminium door colours and finishes to complement both contemporary and traditional South African homes.

Charcoal and Black create a bold, modern look and pair well with white plaster, face brick, stone and timber. White offers a clean, lighter appearance, while Bronze works well with warmer architectural finishes. Natural Anodized (Silver) provides a classic metallic aluminium finish with excellent versatility.

Available finishes include:

Natural Anodized (Silver) | White | Bronze | Charcoal | Black

Colour availability may vary according to the aluminium door type, system, size and selected configuration. For a coordinated finish, aluminium doors and windows can be specified in the same colour throughout the project.

Glass Options for Aluminium Doors

The right glass affects the appearance, privacy, safety and natural light of an aluminium door. Glass selection should suit both the door design and where it will be installed.

Popular options include clear glass for maximum visibility and daylight, Arctic Snow obscure glass for greater privacy, and 6.38mm laminated safety glass for applications where safety glazing is required. Tinted and reflective options such as S10 Bronze, S10 Grey and S10 Silver can provide a distinctive appearance while helping to manage glare and solar exposure.

For large sliding, folding, entrance and Palace doors, the appropriate glass thickness and safety specification should always be selected according to the door size, location and applicable glazing requirements.

Sliding vs Folding Aluminium Doors

Both aluminium sliding doors and folding doors are excellent for patios and living areas, but they open differently. Sliding doors are simpler and space-efficient, while folding doors allow a much larger portion of the opening to be opened.

Feature Aluminium Sliding Doors Aluminium Folding Doors
Opening Panels slide horizontally Panels fold and stack to the side
Clear opening Part of the doorway Most of the doorway
Space required Very little Space required for stacked panels
Glass area Large, uninterrupted panels Multiple narrower panels
Configurations OX, OXXO Commonly 3, 5 or 7 panels
Best for Patios, lounges, balconies Patios, braai and entertainment areas
Cost Generally more affordable Generally higher due to additional panels and hardware

Choose a sliding aluminium door when simplicity, large glass panels and everyday operation are priorities. Choose a folding or stacking door when creating the widest possible indoor-outdoor opening is more important.
