Aluco Exterior Collection – no better, slimmer or more authentic.

Available as bespoke windows, single or French doors, bifolding, and sliding doors, the Aluco Exterior Collection takes steel-inspired glazing to new heights. Every product is tailor-made, ensuring your chosen sizes, glazing bars, mullions, transoms, handle backplates, and optional deep bottom rails come together in an iconic grid-like pattern. Architectural-grade handles, premium glass, and durable, low-maintenance finishes deliver a refined and authentic look.

The Aluco Exterior Collection also has features and benefits unavailable in any other steel-look system. Aluco Elite windows are among the slimmest steel-look designs available, with rolled steel profiles, slender 20mm or 25mm bars, or even no bars for a contemporary feel. Concealed trickle vents and an integrated overhead drip bar maintain a sleek appearance without bulky add-ons, while U-values as low as 1.0 W/m²K ensure exceptional energy efficiency. Fire-escape hinges, no unsightly handle blocks, and carefully engineered frames guarantee improved security, superior weather protection, and long-lasting comfort.

Great company to deal with and exceptional quality. Used Aluco for quite some time now and always amazing service and a premium product.
Highly recommended, especially with their newer range of 'Elite' products that can now hit 1.0W/m2K.
I have used Aluco products multiple times and have consistently found both their products and services to be excellent
We did some research and came to Luxe Interior doors by Aluco.
The double doors from our kitchen to hallway look stunning, they look and feel like the quality doors that they are. Thank you Kieran.
Exceptional products, high end finish.

The team at Aluco are fantastic, always helpful, quick to respond & offer support from quoting through to install.
Brilliant customer service from Kieran, very helpful and went out his way to provide us with a replacement part that was damaged during installation. Very satisfied with the quality and design of the doors we purchased
We wanted to invest on a quality set of doors as one of the main focal points in a rather large extension of our home. After doing some research we settled on Aluco. Our contact from start to finish was Kieran, who was so helpful, constructive and knowledgeable. When installed we were so pleased as the fit was perfect, the finish outstanding. Not only did we consider the quality better than other options we looked at, the cost was nowhere near them. So much that our window/door fitters that we used on the job are now looking at them as an alternative. A solid 5 out of 5 and would definitely use again.
Great quality aluminium internal doors and quick professional service. Very happy with the products and buying experience. Kieran is super helpful!
After having a horrible experience with another company, we got in touch with Aluco and they couldn’t have been more helpful. As we are doing a self build, they helped us pick the right doors for the look we were after and to make the best use of our available space. We knew the doors and windows are a top quality product and couldn’t be more pleased with them when they arrived. Everyone we spoke to went out of their way to help and we felt they took a personal interest in resolving our predicament, so it’s a five star review from us for both the service and product.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the review,it was a pleasure working with you guys..and we are over the moon you guys are happy with the Aluco steel look doors.. Kind Regards Aluco Team.
A pleasure to do business with this company, door was delivered on the exact time and day that they stated and the dimensions were exactly what I wanted
Looks and operates perfectly
