The Brief

The existing balcony doors were no longer performing effectively. Their deteriorated condition had resulted in water ingress, creating comfort issues for the resident and posing a potential long-term risk to the building fabric. With the doors exposed to elevated weathering on the balcony, a modern, high-performance replacement was essential.

Brighton – Aluminium French Door Replacement

Outcome

The new French doors provide improved insulation, weather resistance and security. The resident now benefits from a modern, robust installation that prevents water ingress and enhances the overall appearance and performance of the property.

Our Solution

  • Full removal of the existing aluminium French doors, including deteriorated seals and frame sections.

  • Installation of modern, high-performance equivalents, designed to withstand balcony-level weather exposure.

  • Enhanced sealing and weatherproofing, significantly improving protection against future water ingress.

  • Final alignment and operational checks, ensuring smooth operation and a secure, reliable fit.

Overcoming Challenges

  • The installation required careful coordination to ensure safe access and to protect both the internal and external areas during removal. The original aluminium frame had deteriorated significantly, so the team needed to manage the removal precisely to avoid damage to the surrounding structure. Evander planned the works to ensure the replacement could be completed safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption to the resident.
