Which material is best for industrial or commercial folding doors?
With advances in manufacturing processes and material processes the best material for so many external doors is now steel, mainly when used in double skinned format with a foam central core to create a solid and very strong panel. Steel is maybe thought of as basic and industrial by many people, but with modern paint and laminating processes you can now readily buy steel doors in various finishes and formats which you would struggle to actually know are steel. Folding steel doors can be very large and also include multiple individual panels if the width is great, steel is very stable, very strong, and in a double skin format with a foam core will offer insulation and even greater overall strength for durability and longevity..
Aluminium is also a good material for sliding or folding external doors, but more limited in sizing and generally more expensive.
