Custom Aluminum Door Fabrication to Your Exact Measurements

t419-1

Custom aluminum door fabrication means building a door to the exact dimensions of your opening instead of choosing from standard sizes. At Techno Kol Uzi, we measure on site, draw the door, get your approval, then manufacture and finish it in our Tel Aviv factory.

Why standard doors often do not fit

Many Israeli apartments and older buildings have openings that do not match off-the-shelf sizes. A door that is a few centimeters too narrow or too low leaves gaps for drafts, noise and insects, and a door that is forced to fit can sag or stick over time.

Custom fabrication solves this by starting from your actual opening. The door is designed around the frame you already have, so the fit is tight and the appearance is clean.

Measuring on site

The process begins with a visit to your home or building. We check the width and height at several points, since walls are rarely perfectly square, and we note the wall thickness, floor level and how the door will swing.

We also look at the surroundings: stairs, nearby fixtures and the direction of sunlight. These details affect the choice of frame profile, glass or solid panel, and hardware.

Choosing aluminum or iron

Aluminum is light, does not rust and needs little maintenance, which makes it a practical choice for entrances and balconies. Iron is heavier and very strong, suited to security doors and traditional looks.

Aluminum: lighter, rust-free, good for glass infill
Iron: higher strength, classic appearance
Combinations of both are possible for specific designs

Drawing and written specification

Before production, you receive a drawing and a written specification covering dimensions, profile type, opening direction, glazing or panel choice, and hardware. Nothing goes into the workshop until you have reviewed and approved these details.

This step prevents misunderstandings. If something needs to change, it is far easier to adjust a drawing than a finished door.

Manufacturing and finishing

Our team cuts and welds the frame in the factory, assembles the panels and fits the hardware. Metal parts are finished with hot-dip galvanizing where corrosion protection is needed, and with powder coating for a durable color finish.

Working in the workshop gives us control over tolerances, so the door arrives ready to hang rather than needing major adjustments on site.

Installation and final checks

Installation includes setting the frame, leveling and plumbing it, and testing the swing and locking. We check that the door closes smoothly and that seals sit evenly around the perimeter.

Before we leave, we walk through operation and maintenance with you, so you know how to keep the finish and hardware in good condition.

Frequently asked questions

Do you measure the opening myself or do you come to the site?

We recommend an on-site measurement so that wall irregularities are captured correctly. Sending photos helps us prepare, but the final measurements are taken at the opening.

Can I combine glass and metal in a custom aluminum door?

Yes, aluminum frames are commonly fitted with glass panels or solid infill. The choice depends on privacy, light and security needs, and we will advise during the specification stage.

Is aluminum or iron better for an entrance door?

Aluminum suits most entrances because it is light and does not rust. Iron offers greater strength and is often chosen where high security is the priority.

Will I approve the design before production starts?

Yes. You receive a drawing and written specification, and production begins only after your approval.

Common mistakes to avoid

A common mistake is ordering from a single measurement taken at one point of the opening, which often misses out-of-square walls. Another is skipping the written specification, which leads to disagreements about finish, glazing or hardware after production.

Our recommendation

Measure at three heights and three widths, note the floor finish, and decide on the swing direction before the visit. Having this information ready speeds up the quote and reduces the chance of errors.

Summary

Custom aluminum door fabrication fits your door to your opening, not the other way round. Measure carefully, approve a written drawing, and choose the metal and finish that suit your location.
