Why Aluminium? The Smart Choice for Modern Doors
Aluminium is a cornerstone of Origin’s design philosophy. Here’s why it outperforms alternatives like timber or uPVC.
Unmatched Strength, Minimal Weight
- 67% lighter than steel yet just as strong, allowing for slimmer frames (like the OB-49’s 49mm sightlines) without sacrificing security.
- Resists warping and corrosion – even in coastal areas or extreme weather.
Precision Engineering
- Prime billets (not recycled scrap): Ensures consistent quality and a flawless powder-coated finish.
- Free-glide systems: Aluminium’s rigidity enables smooth operation for heavy door panels.
Sustainability Without Compromise
- Infinitely recyclable: Origin’s aluminium production aligns with ISO 14001 environmental standards.
- Low maintenance: No painting or sanding – just occasional wiping with soapy water.
Thermal Efficiency
Polyamide thermal breaks and Aerogel insulation (optional on OB-72) work with aluminium’s natural properties to block heat transfer, keeping homes energy-efficient.
“Aluminium’s strength lets us engineer doors with more glass and less frame—so you get breathtaking views without compromising security or insulation.”
