Alutech gates can be quite expensive for customers. However, this disadvantage is insignificant, since it does not stop many customers from making a purchase. Also, a small drawback can be attributed to a not very large assortment of garage doors, which consists of only two main series.
Range
The Alutech brand offers customers the following series of doors:
- "Trend" (doors contain panels of 40 mm);
- "Classic" (panels 45 mm).
Trend is a series of profitable and affordable gates that should be chosen by those who want to save money, but at the same time purchase a quality item. Products from this series are perfect for people who live in regions with moderate climatic conditions.
If your garage is not heated, then a gate from the "Trend" series is what you need.
Doors from the Classic series are considered more stable and warmer. They are specially designed for those who live in cold regions. Products of this type are ideal for heated garages and even rooms with particularly high humidity.
It is best to purchase gates only from direct suppliers and in stores that have a license to distribute Alutech products. It is highly undesirable to purchase building materials of this type on the Internet, since such goods need to be inspected in person.
Installation
You can install and adjust garage doors yourself, but many experts do not recommend installing them personally, otherwise there is a risk of incorrectly installing the structure.
It is best to use the services of specialists.
Before purchasing products from the brand, be sure to measure the opening for future gates, since very often it has to be "adjusted" to the required dimensions and even make minor repairs. Overhead doors from the Alutech brand can be installed in any garage opening due to several installation options.
Appearance
Both series of garage doors from the brand have five varieties of door patterns:
- Microwave;
- Narrow, medium and wide corrugation;
- Panel.
You can also choose from two texture options:
- Smooth;
- With imitation of natural wood.
Natural wood variants are presented in cherry, dark and golden oak colors.
The manufacturer offers 10 basic colors of the palette, in which gates from one or another Alutech series can be made.
You can also install as additional options for the gate:
- Built-in wicket;
- Window;
- The castle system.
Control
You can open the gate with unprecedented comfort, because Alutech offers several solutions to this issue:
- Manual control;
- Automated.
Using a ready-made spring mechanism, Alutech doors can be opened and closed manually. In order to constantly lift the canvas by hand without unnecessary effort, it is very important to install a special handle on it. On the inside, a rope is required for more convenient closure.
It is best to use a special block as a supplement to manual lifting.… In this case, the lifting of the canvas manually will be carried out using a rope that is thrown over this block, and is also attached to the lower part of the canvas.
The block is best purchased if the gate height is more than a few meters. Adjusting such a system does not require much effort and skill.
As for automatic control, Alutech sectional doors can be easily equipped with automation. For many customers, this option is much more convenient than manual control, since, for example, on a rainy day, there is no need to get out of the car and open the entrance. You just need to press one button on the remote control, thanks to which a special electric drive will automatically raise the door leaf.
For the automation of its products, the Alutech brand offers high-quality automatic systems from partner firms, however, for this you can choose any other brand besides those already offered. Basically, for gate automation, drives are used that are mounted directly under the ceiling of the garage. The gates themselves move through a special chain, which is located in the drive rail.
To expand the possibilities of controlling garage products, special remote controls, signal lamps and some other elements are used.
The price of the issue
Today, you do not have to go to a retail outlet to find out the price of future garage doors from Alutech according to your measurements and compare their varieties. For this, the company offers a very convenient standard calculator that anyone can use. The cost of products on the site will always be approximate, you can change the configuration and additional options at your discretion.
Products from the Classic series with tension springs will cost you approximately 45-50 thousand rubles, depending on the region. Gates "Classic" with torsion springs cost up to 80 thousand rubles due to a high-quality control system.
Products from the "Trend" series with tension springs will cost the buyer about the same as "Classic" - 45 thousand rubles. Gate "Trend" with torsion springs will cost up to 75 thousand rubles.
Of course the larger you need a canvas in size, the more expensive it will cost you. In addition, the Alutech calculator does not take into account the cost of future installation of products and the price for their delivery. The final cost can always be found out from the official representatives of the company.
