Cladding Options


Airport Doors offer a wide variety of cladding materials to enable the best possible solution for your application. It is recommended wherever possible to use standard cladding profiles which are commonly used (should replacement be required in the future).

Counterweight doors, sectional overhead doors, sliding doors and custom made doors can be clad with a wide variety of materials allowing almost endless possibilities. Some doors (eg. Springbalance - Tilt-Up doors) have cladding restrictions due to the door design, application, size or weight. Contact your nearest Airport Doors office for further information about door cladding suitability.

Bar Grille can be applied vertically, horizontally or as specified and shall be of prime coat finish using zinc chromate primer or powdercoat.

Glass
Doors can be either partly or fully glazed to provide light and visual access which is excellent for showrooms and display areas. Standard shall be 6.38 laminated safety glass set in high security aluminium glazing beads fixed to a tubular frame. Heavier grades or ornamental glass should not be specified before consulting the manufacturer due to additional weight, deflection and door design involved. Fully glazed doors can be fitted with a steel kick plate as a structural member to avoid deflection in the closed position in accordance with the door width. Glazing of doors shall comply with Australian Standards.

Timber
Standard timber cladding include Western Red Cedar and KD hardwood, however other types of timber such as Jarrah, Red Gum etc. are available upon specification and availability. NOTE: We cannot guarantee the consistency of the timber colour and grain due to the nature of wood itself.
