Engineered specifically to fulfill the dual requirements of modern Dutch building codes (BENG / NTA 8800) and classical European steel-look aesthetics. Explore our export-grade series crafted with polyamide thermal breaks and high-performance safety glazing.
From historic Amsterdam canal house restorations to modern zero-energy suburban developments in Utrecht and Rotterdam, our heritage aluminium French doors provide the ultimate balance of historic charm, security, and severe-weather thermal efficiency.
Dutch municipal guidelines in cities like Amsterdam, Delft, and Leiden strictly protect historic facades. Our ultra-slim heritage aluminium profiles replicate classic 19th-century steel glazing bars (roeden) down to 25mm sightlines, allowing project developers to swap drafty single-glazed steel doors for BENG-compliant thermal-break systems without violating monument conservation rules.
High-end residential builds in Het Gooi, Eindhoven, and Arnhem favor oversized outdoor-to-indoor transitions. Configured with multi-panel double French swing doors flanked by matching arched transoms or side-lights, our systems welcome natural daylight into living rooms while withstanding heavy rainfall and high humidity typical of Dutch polder terrain.
Creating distinction between living spaces and open kitchens is a staple in Dutch interior design. Our interior-grade heritage French doors and folding partition screens utilize non-thermal or slim-line aluminum frames with acoustic laminated glass, delivering up to 42 dB sound suppression without obstructing visual light corridors.
Aligning Asian manufacturing scale with stringent European performance requirements. Here is how Doorreme engineered its steel-look French door range to excel in the Dutch climate and regulatory framework.
The Netherlands transitioned to BENG (Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings) under standard NTA 8800, mandating extreme thermal resistance. Doorreme’s exterior heritage French doors incorporate multi-cavity Polyamide PA66 GF25 thermal breaks filled with high-density insulating foam. Combined with HR++ argon-filled double glazing or HR+++ triple glazing, our door assemblies achieve whole-unit U-values as low as 0.95 W/m²K, helping contractors fulfill strict energy performance coefficient requirements.
Safety is paramount in Dutch residential construction (Politiekeurmerk Veilig Wonen). Our structural aluminum door profiles feature reinforced hardware chambers designed to accept standard European profile cylinders, 3-point to 5-point safety locking mechanisms, and anti-lift heavy-duty flag hinges. This ensures your final door assembly easily achieves Dutch SKG** or SKG*** burglar resistance ratings.
Coastal winds in provinces like Zeeland and Noord-Holland carry destructive moisture and salt content. Unlike raw steel doors that rust over time, Doorreme utilizes 6063-T6 architectural grade aluminum treated with Qualicoat Class 2 textured powder coatings or 25-micron anodization. Tested under 3,000 hours of continuous salt spray exposure, our finishes resist blistering, peeling, and corrosion for decades.
The Dutch government aims for a fully circular economy by 2050. Aluminium is 100% recyclable without quality degradation. Doorreme sources low-carbon primary aluminium ingots and enforces strict waste material reclamation throughout our 123,000 m² factory, offering full Material Passports for green building certifications like BREEAM-NL.

Established in 2004 in Foshan, China's aluminum capital, Doorreme has grown into a world-leading enterprise delivering engineered window, door, and curtain wall solutions to over 140 countries.
Our state-of-the-art facility features imported German CNC milling machines, automated corner-crimping equipment, and high-precision glass assembly lines. With over 800 skilled employees and an annual capacity exceeding 500,000 m², we handle high-volume residential and commercial orders with unwavering precision.
We eliminate overseas purchasing risks through technical rigor. Every order undergoes detailed CAD elevation drafting, structural wind-pressure analysis, and profile thermal modeling. Production begins only after your project team signs off on the final technical drawings.
We provide stress-free DDP, CIF, and FOB ocean freight shipping directly to the Ports of Rotterdam and Amsterdam. All products are encased in fully enclosed IPPC-certified wooden crates with shrink wrapping and corner protection to guarantee damage-free arrival.
Answers to essential technical, logistics, and compliance questions for importers, developers, and architects in the Netherlands.
Yes. Doorreme’s thermal-break heritage series can be custom-engineered with polyamide thermal strips (up to 34mm depth) and double or triple HR+++ Low-E argon glass. This system easily achieves U-values between 0.95 and 1.3 W/m²K, satisfying the strict insulation standards outlined in the Dutch Bouwbesluit (Building Decree) and BENG regulations.
Absolute precision is our standard. We offer adhesive aluminium grid strips (Wiener Sprossen), structural interior/exterior muntin bars, and internal glass decorative grids in widths ranging from 20mm to 40mm. You can submit existing elevation drawings or photos of historic Dutch buildings, and our engineering team will match the exact grid layout.
Production typically takes 25 to 35 days following drawing approval. Shipping from our Foshan facility to the Port of Rotterdam takes approximately 28 to 35 transit days. All units are wrapped in anti-scratch protective film, padded with high-density EPE foam, and sealed in heavy-duty export plywood crates suitable for crane unloading at Dutch construction sites.
Yes. We supply European standard lock gearboxes or pre-mill profile cutouts compatible with leading European hardware brands like Roto, GU, and Siegenia. Our factory also provides high-security 3-point and 5-point multi-locking systems with hardened anti-drill cylinders designed to meet SKG** and SKG*** security criteria.
For projects near coastal regions (such as Den Haag, Haarlem, or Zeeland), we strictly recommend our Qualicoat-certified powder coating or 25-micron anodized finishes. These surface treatments offer maximum UV resistance and protection against marine salt air corrosion, eliminating peeling or fading over decades of exposure.
We accommodate both bespoke luxury residential villas (MOQ starting at 10 m² or single container mixed orders) and large multi-family commercial developments. Our technical team works directly with Dutch wholesalers, installers, and project developers to provide competitive factory-direct pricing.
Send us your project specifications, window schedules, or CAD drawings today. Our senior facade engineers will deliver a comprehensive proposal with U-value calculations, structural details, and factory-direct pricing within 24 hours.
