Durable Aluminium Double Entrance Door Front Entry Thermal Break Door
- PA66 Thermal Insulation Strip
- Multi-Point Anti-Theft Lock
- C5-M Coastal Corrosion Resistance
Our architectural entry systems combine high-density PA66 thermal breaks, C4/C5 marine-grade anti-corrosion powder coatings, and RC2/RC3 security locks tailored for Portuguese building codes.
Portugal's diverse microclimates—from intense solar radiation in Southern Algarve to damp Atlantic sea-spray in Porto and density-driven acoustic needs in urban Lisbon—demand custom-engineered entry systems.
In high-end coastal developments across Quinta do Lago, Vale do Lobo, and Loulé, entrance doors are exposed to intense UV rays and aggressive saline atmospheres. Our aluminum pivot doors incorporate Qualicoat Seaside Grade A/B powder coatings and high-insulation polyamide thermal breaks, preventing aluminum oxidation while maintaining an internal solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) that reduces air conditioning loads.
Restoration projects in Lisbon (Avenida da Liberdade, Chiado) and modern beachfront villas in Cascais demand exceptional soundproofing against street noise and Atlantic wind loads. Utilizing multi-chambered thermal break profiles with heavy-duty EPDM weather stripping, our doors deliver acoustic reduction ratings up to R_w = 42 dB, matching modern municipal residential comfort criteria.
Projects in Matosinhos, Foz do Douro, and Northern Portugal face driving rain and strong winter winds. Our large-format entry pivot systems undergo rigorous testing to achieve Class 9A Water Tightness (EN 12208) and Class C5 Wind Load Resistance (EN 12210), guaranteeing leak-free operational performance even under storm-level pressure differentials.
As Portugal enforces stricter energy efficiency directives under the Regulamento de Desempenho Energético dos Edifícios de Habitação (REH) and EU Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings (nZEB) standards, entrance door specifications are undergoing a structural shift.
Under Portuguese REH thermal requirements (Climate Zones I1, I2, I3), building envelope components must limit thermal bridging to prevent winter interior heat loss and summer heat gain. Standard uninsulated aluminum frames are no longer compliant. Our doors incorporate 24mm to 34mm PA66 GF25 polyamides, achieving complete thermal isolation with overall door $U_w$ values ranging between 0.9 W/m²K and 1.3 W/m²K.
Contemporary architectural trends in Portugal favor expansive, minimalist entryways that create a powerful statement. Traditional hinged doors struggle with sashes exceeding 1.2 meters in width due to hinge stress. Our specialized heavy-duty pivot gear supports sashes up to 2000mm in width and 3500mm in height, handling panel weights up to 500 kg with zero frame distortion over decades of use.
With over 800 km of coastline exposed to aggressive ocean air, salt spray corrosion is the primary failure cause for metal hardware in Portugal. Aluvoy utilizes 6063-T6 aluminum alloys subjected to a multi-stage pre-treatment etching process followed by PVDF or Qualicoat powder coatings, tested for over 2,000 hours in continuous salt spray chambers (ISO 9227).
Security is paramount for private Portuguese Quintas and high-end residential estates. Our entrance doors are engineered with multi-point hook locking systems, anti-drill cylinder plates, and concealed drop-down seals. They seamlessly integrate with modern home automation platforms, offering biometric fingerprint scanners, RFID readers, and smart mobile App control.

Since 2005, Foshan Aluvoy Entry Door Systems Co., Ltd. has established itself as an industry leader in custom architectural aluminum fenestration, operating from a 20,000 m² state-of-the-art facility in Foshan, China.
Importing customized fenestration products from overseas requires absolute technical accuracy. At Aluvoy, every profile is cut, machined, and punched on high-precision CNC multi-axis machines. All assembly processes—including corner crimping, corner glue injection, glazing seal application, and hardware installation—are executed in-house by dedicated specialists.
Our global engineering team holds authentic certifications including AS2047 (Australia), NFRC (North America), and Florida Hurricane Product Approval. This deep experience in stringent structural environments guarantees that doors engineered for Portugal exceed local Eurocode requirements.
Answers to common logistical, technical, and regulatory questions from Portuguese developers, architects, and direct buyers.
Yes. All entrance doors destined for the European Union and Portugal are fabricated in strict compliance with EN 14351-1 (windows and external pedestrian doorsets). We provide complete Declaration of Performance (DoP) documents and CE labels detailing air permeability, water tightness, resistance to wind load, and thermal transmittance values ($U_w$) required by municipal project inspectors across Lisbon, Porto, and Algarve.
We routinely ship sea-freight containers directly to major Portuguese container terminals including Port of Sines (Leixões/Porto) and Port of Lisbon. Doors are packed inside reinforced steel-banded plywood crates with internal foam cushioning and plastic shrink wrapping to prevent salt-air damage or physical abrasion during maritime transit. Ocean transit time from Foshan/Shenzhen to Portugal typically ranges from 28 to 35 days.
Absolutely. 100% of our orders are built to order based on architectural drawings or opening schedules provided by the buyer. Prior to manufacturing, our engineering department generates comprehensive CAD shop drawings detailing section views, threshold anchorage, sub-frame dimensions, glass build-up, and hardware positioning for your final written approval.
Our coastal door series utilizes architectural aluminum alloy 6063-T6 treated with Qualicoat Seaside powder coating (minimum 60–80 microns thick) or 25-micron anodic oxidation. Hardware components—including pivot mechanisms, multi-point lock rods, and decorative handles—are manufactured from 316 marine-grade stainless steel or corrosion-resistant passivated zinc alloy to prevent rusting from saline spray.
Standard factory lead time is 25 to 35 days following CAD drawing sign-off and deposit receipt. We back our aluminum entry door systems with a 10-year warranty covering profile structural integrity, thermal break adhesion, and powder coating against peeling or excessive fading. Replacement hardware parts can be dispatched via express air courier if required during project installation.
Yes. Every door shipment includes detailed installation manuals, threshold anchoring diagrams, and wiring schematics for integrated smart access systems. Our technical team is available remotely via video consultation and instant messaging to assist local Portuguese installation crews throughout the installation and alignment process.
