Powder-Coated Aluminium Doors

As Accend Aluminium & Glass, we know that choosing the right patio doors is about much more than function. It’s about harmony—with your home’s architecture, your neighbourhood’s character, and the latest colour trends. In this post, we’ll show you how powder coated aluminium patio doors in custom colours can enhance a Bordeaux or Robindale home, and how to maintain style continuity while upgrading.

Why Choose Powder-Coated Aluminium Patio Doors?

Aluminium and glass construction offers strength, durability, low maintenance, and design flexibility. At Accend, our aluminium doors come fully powder coated in a wide colour range. 2AG

Powder coating offers far more than aesthetic appeal:

Durability: The finish resists chipping, scratching, UV fading and corrosion—ideal for South Africa’s climate. Astro Group+1
Colour consistency: The electrostatic process ensures an even, uniform finish that lasts.
Custom matching: You can match trims, gutters, rooflines, or accent colours seamlessly.
Low maintenance: A soft wash occasionally is usually enough to keep it looking new.

Thus, powder-coated aluminium patio doors combine performance and style, key when upgrading homes in suburbs like Bordeaux and Robindale.

Understanding Bordeaux & Robindale Architectural Character

Homes in Bordeaux or Robindale often display well-proportioned facades, clean lines, subtle ornamentation, and a mix of traditional and modern details. To preserve this character:

1. Respect the architectural lines

Your new patio doors should echo the window proportions, cornices, or overhangs. Oversized sliding doors can dominate a modest façade unless balanced with similar elements.

2. Use complementary colours

Deep warm colours like Bordeaux (a wine-red tone) are trending again. Mattoboard Blog+1 Bordeaux is elegant and rich, but pair it with gentler neutrals or muted greys to avoid visual heaviness. You can explore its hex and complementary palettes (for example from Figma’s Bordeaux page) to select accents. Figma

3. Add soft contrast

In a palette dominated by earth tones and greys, a powder coated aluminium frame in charcoal, graphite or even a muted deep red can be a tasteful accent. Rather than jarring contrast, aim for tonal harmony.

4. Respect heritage elements

If your home has old ironwork, plaster ornament, or masonry detailing, choose door profiles and hardware (like narrow sills or slim locks) that don’t fight those details. Your doors should complement, not compete.

Colour Trends & How They Fit into the Local Context

Colours are no longer playing it safe. The AD PRO Colour Trend Report 2025 highlights a shift from neutrals to bolder, expressive hues. Architectural Digest In that context, Bordeaux and oxblood tones are resurfacing as elegant accent shades. Vogue+1

Still, in a suburban context, you want a balance:

Use bold tones as accent or frame colours, not the dominant cladding.
Anchor them in a base of light or mid-grey, cream, or pale stone.
Use render or masonry in neutral tones, leaving the powder coated aluminium to provide subtle punch.

At Accend, we maintain a large spectrum of powder coated colours—so you can pick something unique yet harmonious with your surroundings. 2AG+1

Selecting the Right Door Style & Configuration

Your design must meet practical and aesthetic needs. Here are variant ideas:

Sliding doors

Sliding doors deliver large openings with minimal obstruction. We supply sliding aluminium patio doors as part of our aluminium doors product line. 2AG

Stacking or bifold options

If you want a totally open feel, stacking systems or bifold doors can recede to the sides. In such cases, symmetrical design and slim profiles are essential to retain architectural balance.

Fixed plus operable combinations

Integrate fixed glass panels beside operables to maintain rhythm. Use consistent frame widths and mullion patterns so the new work reads as part of the original façade.

Glass selection

High-performance double glazing, Low-E coatings, and proper sealing make a difference in thermal comfort. Explore our guide to double glazed aluminium windows in Randburg for insight into how we address insulation in local conditions. 2AG

Matching Colour Across Elements & Maintaining Cohesion

To reinforce architectural harmony:

Use the same powder coated finish (or a complementary tone) on all aluminium elements: windows, fascia, railings, gates.
If your roof capping or gutters are dark, echo that tone in your door frames.
Reflect smaller accents (security gates, balustrades) in the same colour family.
