Product guides

Choosing the right door hardware family

A practical guide to the main Ali Hardware catalogue areas for aluminium door and access-control projects.

Access control

Use this category for keypads, exit buttons, electric locks, magnets, strikes and related electronic door-control hardware.

  • Check voltage and fail-safe or fail-secure operation
  • Confirm reader, keypad or exit switch environment rating
  • Match release hardware to door and frame preparation

Door locks and cylinders

Match locks and cylinders to profile, backset, handing, security level and finish requirements before ordering.

  • Check aluminium profile compatibility
  • Confirm cylinder size and thumbturn needs
  • Ask for technical help when replacing existing hardware

Closers, handles and fittings

Door closers, panic hardware, pull handles and brackets should be selected around usage, door mass, opening angle and project compliance.

  • Closer adjustability and hold-open requirements
  • Pull handle length, fixing centres and finish
  • Panic hardware and commercial escape route needs
