That's also why I say aluminum.
As a former aluminum window manufacturer, I consider both to be myths. Different burglary resistance classes dominate the market segments of aluminum and plastic; your price example compares premium custom work with DIY pallet goods. And there are no colors that don’t exist (in glossy or matte). However, that cost us quite a bit, unlike other suppliers who say, these eight color shades, a ninth one doesn’t exist at all or only at a deterrent price. By the way, our best-seller (about 20% share) was matte white.
Yeah, yeah, myths. Well, here is the reality.
"similar to RAL 7016," as a popular example nowadays, looks different in foil-coated plastic than in anodized or powder-coated aluminum. Both in surface texture and in color shade. And significantly so. That’s the point. We carry a RAL color fan for samples, the differences are sometimes hair-raising.
And then people have an aluminum door, next to it foil-coated fixed glass elements and two steps away a garage door from, say, Hörmann, which looks different again.
