Exterior Aluminum Doors and Frames
Doors and frames made to your rough opening, not picked off a shelf.
What We Manufacture
WANJIA Hiseng builds exterior aluminum doors and frames in Foshan, China. The range covers single doors, double doors, combinations with sidelights, and pivot doors. Frames come from the same factory, matched to the leaf you order. Builders, dealers, architects and homeowners buy direct, and the doors go into houses, apartments, hotels, offices and retail entrances.
Aluminum holds up where wood and steel struggle. It doesn't swell in humidity, it doesn't rot, and it doesn't rust the way untreated steel will. The profile wall on our entrance doors is thickened for impact resistance, and the thermal break separates the inside face from the outside face so the frame doesn't act as a bridge for heat. The same reasoning sits behind federal rules on imported aluminum, which the White House has adjusted through proclamations on aluminum imports in recent years.
This page covers what the doors are, how the frames work with them, and what to send us for a quote. If you're comparing us against another factory, the specs block and the FAQ below give you the numbers to compare against.
Door and Frame Types
Five configurations, one frame system.
Single and Double
Single leaves for apartments and side entrances. Double doors, including the K80 large entrance aluminum double casement doors, suit a wider opening where you want a grander entry.
Sidelight Combinations
A door leaf plus fixed glass panels on one or both sides. The frame is built as one unit, so the sidelight glass and the door line up on the same head and sill.
Pivot Doors
The leaf rotates on a pivot rather than hinges, which lets you run a taller, heavier panel than a standard swing door. Aluminum frame with glass, or solid wood if that's the look you want.
Thermal Break Frames
The frame profile carries a thermal break between the interior and exterior faces. That's the piece that keeps a cold day outside and a hot day out of your hallway.

The profile is thickened aluminum, chosen for impact resistance and corrosion resistance. Coastal jobs matter here. Salt air eats untreated steel and swells wood, and aluminum with a proper finish doesn't do either. Fluorocarbon coating, wood-grain transfer, anodizing and powder coating are the finish routes. Pick by climate and by how close the door sits to the ocean. Glass options run from laminated to Low-E, frosted and mirrored, and you can mix them across a single unit if the design calls for it.
Hardware comes from Kinlong, Hoppe, CMECH, VBH and G-U. Multi-point locking and hydraulic door closers are standard choices on entrance doors, and multiple sealing strips run around the frame to keep weather and noise out. Smart entry is available: fingerprint locks, password locks, card access, remote unlock and app control. None of that is exotic anymore, but it does affect the frame prep, so tell us early if you want it.
Questions buyers ask
Are aluminum exterior doors good?
For most North American entrances, yes. Aluminum doesn't rot, doesn't swell with humidity, and doesn't rust the way untreated steel does. With a thermal break in the profile, the frame stops acting as a heat bridge. The trade-off is that bare aluminum feels cold to the touch compared to wood, and it dents rather than flexes under a hard hit. Compare the ratings on the label, the hardware brand, the glass spec and the frame construction before you decide.
How much does an aluminum door frame cost?
We don't publish prices, because the number moves with size, glass, finish, hardware and volume. What we can tell you is what drives it: frame depth matched to your wall thickness, the thermal break, the finish route, and whether the frame is a single unit or a combination with sidelights. Send a drawing and rough opening and we'll quote within 3 hours on average.
What is the best exterior door to buy?
There isn't one answer. What you should compare: the ratings on the label, the hardware brand and how it's rated, the glass build-up, the frame material and thermal break, and the service terms including lead time and warranty. Ask any supplier for the certificate numbers behind their claims. We hold ISO 9001 certificate 24CN34508377Q covering production and sales of aluminum alloy doors and windows, plus CSA 80164911 for aluminum windows and doors and an NFRC certificate covering our entrance door.
What are the disadvantages of aluminum frames?
Aluminum conducts heat, so a frame without a thermal break will feel cold and lose energy. It also dents more easily than steel, and the finish can chalk over time in harsh UV if it's not specified well. None of these are deal-breakers, but they're the reasons to ask about the thermal break, the finish system and the warranty terms before you commit.
