Aluminum Garage Doors in Nebraska

The use of commercial aluminum garage doors in Omaha, Nebraska, is becoming more popular, with many businesses preferring it for its contemporary appearance and curbside appeal. Besides the aesthetic value, aluminum doors have several benefits that make this option suitable for your business. There are also aspects you should consider that could be potential drawbacks.

Advantages of Aluminum Garage Doors

Aluminum full-view doors may be the best solution for your business, as they provide:

  • Modern appearance: Overhead aluminum doors have a sleek and contemporary look that gives your business instant curbside appeal. 
  • Natural light: Glass panes allow natural light to brighten the interior and make the place feel spacious and appealing to your employees and customers.
  • Outdoor views: The aluminum lets your customers see outside and creates interest and awareness by allowing passersby to see inside your commercial space.
  • Durability: Full-view doors are made from solid aluminum or insulated steel frames with tempered aluminum, which makes them durable and weather-resistant.
  • Easy maintenance: Cleaning your industrial aluminum doors is as simple as cleaning your windows — no need to paint or apply additional coatings. However, you still need to maintain the door springs, rollers, and hinges like other door types.
  • Design choices: You can customize the aluminum to be clear, tinted, mirrored, obscured, frosted or laminated. Choose different panel options, window types and frame colors to ensure your door complements your property.
  • Versatility: Aluminum full-view doors can be used in multiple areas in the interior or exterior of your business. These products can divide sections within your commercial space or serve as a traditional garage door.

Disadvantages of Aluminum Garage Doors

Some potential drawbacks to commercial aluminum garages you should also consider include:

  • Privacy concerns: Some commercial companies may be concerned that aluminum offers less privacy, which can pose a security risk. They may want to choose mirrored or obscure windows, which can address privacy concerns.
  • Price points: Aluminum full-view doors can be pricier than some other commercial door options. 
  • Insulation limits: You can insulate overhead aluminum doors, but there are limits compared to other full steel, aluminum or composite doors.
