Stacking aluminium doors have become a recent trend for many homeowners. Although not popularly used as front entrances, aluminium stacking doors are a common choice for back entrances and entrances to other parts of the home such as the pool area or living room. One thing that many homeowners and business owners struggle with is how to approach the design of their stacking aluminium doors. Of course, it can be customised, but for many homeowners, this simply isn’t enough. How do you make your aluminium stacker door stand out? The door itself is beautiful, so how do you capitalise on this? In this article, we’ll discuss different ways you can capitalise on the beauty of your aluminium stacker door.

Why aluminium stacking doors?

Aluminium is the preferred use of material among many Australians because of its durability, especially when it comes to Australia’s weather. Known for being extremely hot during the summer and extremely moist during the winter, elements of Australia’s weather can wreak havoc on residential and commercial entrances. However, aluminium is able to withstand all of these elements brilliantly, ensuring that your product’s structural integrity is maintained as well as its appearance.

But why specifically stacker doors? Well, though very similar to aluminium sliding doors, stacker doors have their own benefits and may be better suited to many other residential and business properties. Here are a few benefits of stacking doors.

  • More control over the opening of the door, allowing for customisable airflow and sunlight stream and a safer area
  • Less space is required to fit stacker doors in a home, making it more suitable for a variety of spaces
  • More options for customisation as there are more frames in a stacker door
  • Allows for fluid movement between rooms or between an interior and exterior space


These are just some of the benefits of choosing aluminium stacker doors. As you can see, it’s a versatile option for many people. The only question is: how do we make the most out of a stacking aluminium door entrance? Let’s find out.

How to highlight your stacking aluminium door entrance

Customise


It’s no surprise that with aluminium stacking doors you are able to customise it. In fact, the customisation options are endless. You can use a variety of methods to highlight your aluminium stacking doors. Here are a few:

  • Select your aluminium frame colours – This is obvious, however, the kind of colour you select is what can make or break your design choice. Depending on your home’s interior design and the aesthetic you want to achieve, choose your colour accordingly. For example, if your beachside home is full of neutral colours, then select sage green or blue (again, depending on your home) as your aluminium frame’s colour. This will allow your home to walk the fine line of bold and neutral. For homes with dark colours, brick red or navy blue are always bold and complementary choices.
  • Customise your screen – Did you know that you can customise your glass screen? Choose from sandblasted, frosted, speckled or tinted glass screens. They offer more privacy and will certainly highlight your entrance. We recommend this for homes that aren’t heavily decorated.


Frame with nature


Nature is a great way to, in an environmentally friendly way, highlight your home. Choose from Monstera deliciosa or “Swiss cheese plant”, Epipremnum aureum or Devil's Ivy, Dracaena Massangeana or Mass Cane, Spathiphyllum or Peace lily and Bromeliad. We highly recommend these plants because they thrive on neglect, meaning they need little maintenance to look beautiful. When using plants to highlight your entrance, you want to ensure that it looks great 100% of the time.

Use the wall to your advantage


If your door is constructed within a wall and there is edging around it, then this is the perfect opportunity to use the wall as a highlight. Paint the colour of this wall different from the others in the room, making it a statement wall. A statement wall immediately draws attention, so this is an easy way to highlight your entrance. Of course, even though it is a statement wall, still use colours that are complementary to the rest of the room/home. For example, if the room with the entrance is mostly white, you can easily get away with a beige or sky blue wall. However, if your room is orange or yellow, then you may have to use a bold colour like red or green (depending on the appearance) for your statement.
