How to choose the right aluminium internal door configuration

 

Not all internal doors serve the same purpose. Choosing the right configuration is just as important as selecting the finish or style. Aluminium internal doors are available in several formats, each suited to different spaces and layouts.

This guide explains the most common options and when to use them.


Single aluminium internal doors

Single doors are ideal for standard openings and smaller rooms. They provide clear separation while maintaining visual flow through glazed panels.

Best suited for:

  • Kitchens
  • Utility rooms
  • Home offices
  • Hallways

French aluminium internal doors

French doors create a wider opening and a stronger visual connection between rooms. They work particularly well in larger spaces or where symmetry is important.

Best suited for:

  • Kitchen-diners
  • Living rooms
  • Garden-facing interiors

Sliding aluminium internal doors

Sliding doors are ideal where swing space is limited. They offer a clean, modern solution while maintaining full-height glazing.

Best suited for:

  • Narrow layouts
  • Open-plan zones
  • Contemporary interiors

Fixed screens and partitions

Fixed aluminium screens are used where separation is needed without regular access. They are often paired with doors to create larger glazed partitions.

Best suited for:

  • Room dividers
  • Staircases
  • Commercial interiors

Choosing based on use, not trend

The best internal door configuration is determined by how the space is used daily. Traffic flow, noise, privacy and layout should always guide the decision.
