TS Designs PA1 — fit once, built for life.

When specifying doors for demanding environments, the upfront cost is only part of the picture. The real question is what will that door cost you over its lifetime?

Too often, lower-cost options such as timber or standard steel doors are selected based on initial price alone. However, these solutions typically require regular maintenance, repairs, and eventual replacement, driving up costs over time and creating ongoing disruption.

The Fit-and-Forget Advantage

TS Designs’ PA1 aluminium doors are engineered with a different philosophy, fit and forget

• No ongoing maintenance
• No repainting or corrosion treatment
• No premature replacement cycles

Once installed, the door simply performs, year after year, delivering a virtually limitless service life.

Aluminium vs Timber vs Standard Steel

Timber doors

• Prone to rot, warping, and weather damage
• Require frequent maintenance and replacement
• Poor long-term value despite low upfront cost

Standard steel doors

• Susceptible to corrosion and coating failure
• Ongoing need for inspection, repair, and repainting
• Limited lifespan in harsh environments

TS Designs PA1 aluminium doors

• Corrosion-resistant aluminium construction
• Designed for continuous use in harsh environments
• Zero maintenance requirements
• Backed by an industry-leading 20-year warranty
