Aluminum Door Delivery and Installation Time: What to Expect
t408-29

An aluminum door is made to measure, so the timeline runs from the on-site measurement to the finished installation, with production taking place in our factory at 37 Rival Street, Tel Aviv. The exact duration depends on the design, finishing and current workload, and we confirm it in writing before production starts. Planning early and having accurate openings measured reduces the chance of delays.
The Stages from Order to Installation
Every aluminum door we supply follows the same path. It starts with your inquiry, usually with photos of the opening and the style you have in mind. Next comes an on-site measurement, then a drawing and a written specification that you approve before anything is made.
Only after approval does production begin in the factory. Once the door is ready, it goes to finishing and then to installation. Knowing these stages helps you see where time is spent and where you can help keep things moving.
What Affects the Timeline
The biggest factors are the complexity of the design, the size of the door, and the finish you choose. A simple door with a standard finish moves through production faster than a custom design with special glass or detailing.
- Design complexity and number of custom details
- Finishing process, such as powder coating
- Speed of your approval of the drawing
- Readiness of the opening on the installation day
Why Measurement and Approval Come First
Accurate measurement is the foundation of a good door. Because the door is made to fit your opening, a measurement error can mean remaking parts, which adds time. We measure on site and then confirm the dimensions with you in the drawing.
Please review the specification carefully before approving it. Once you sign off, production starts, so any changes should be raised at this stage rather than later.
Finishing and Quality Checks
Aluminum doors can receive surface finishing, and this step adds to the schedule. Each door is checked for fit, alignment and finish before it leaves the factory, which protects you from problems after installation.
Finishing time depends on the chosen treatment and on the current production queue, so we confirm it with you when we agree on the specification.
Installation Day
On installation day, the team arrives with the door and fixes it into the prepared opening. Installation usually goes smoothly when the opening is ready, the wall is finished to the expected level, and access to the site is clear.
Please let us know about any building rules, access restrictions or parking issues in advance so the day runs without interruption.
How to Plan Your Project Well
Start by sending clear photos and measurements, and decide on the style and finish early. Ask for a written timeline with your approved specification, so you know what to expect at each stage.
- Send photos and rough measurements at the start
- Make finish and glass choices before approving the drawing
- Prepare the opening and surrounding area before installation
- Keep communication open with our team throughout
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to make an aluminum door?
Production time depends on the design, size and finish, so we confirm the timeline in writing once the specification is approved. Simple standard doors generally move faster than custom designs.
Do I need to be present for the measurement?
It helps to be there or to be reachable during the measurement, so questions about the opening and your preferences can be answered on the spot. This reduces the need for corrections later.
Can the installation be done on the same day as delivery?
Delivery and installation are coordinated together, and the installation day depends on the opening being ready. We plan the sequence with you so the door is fitted as soon as conditions allow.
What can delay the installation?
The most common delays are an opening that is not ready, late approval of the drawing, and access restrictions at the site. Sorting these out early keeps the schedule on track.
Common mistakes to avoid
Approving the drawing too quickly without checking dimensions, or leaving the opening unprepared, are the most common causes of delay. Review every detail before you sign off.
Our recommendation
Decide on your finish and any glass or design details before the measurement visit, and make sure the opening is clear and ready. This is the simplest way to keep your aluminum door on schedule.
Summary
Aluminum door timelines depend on measurement, approval, production and finishing, so early planning and a ready opening make the biggest difference.
