Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions we hear most from consultants, contractors, and homeowners across the UAE.
General & Getting Started
What areas does Alufab serve?
We deliver aluminium and glass fabrication and installation across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, and the wider UAE, with additional project experience in neighboring GCC countries.
What does the project process look like?
Every project moves through four stages: Design & Engineering, Fabrication & Quality Control, On-Site Installation, and Inspection & Maintenance Support — the same process our team follows on every façade, cladding, or metalwork project.

How long does a typical project take?
Timelines vary with scope — smaller installations like doors or partitions can move quickly, while large façade or cladding projects take longer to engineer, fabricate, and install. Our team will give you a realistic timeline once we understand your project.
Is Alufab certified?
Yes — Alufab holds ISO 9001 quality management certification and ICV (In-Country Value) certification, reflecting our commitment to certified manufacturing and quality standards.
Do you offer warranties on your work?
Warranty terms are confirmed as part of every project agreement, based on the specific systems and materials specified for your project.
Folding Doors
Are these doors suitable for the Middle East's harsh climate?
Yes. Alufab folding doors are designed specifically for the Middle Eastern environment, with high-performance glass and corrosion-resistant finishes built to withstand extreme heat, sand, and humidity.
What customization options are available?
Full flexibility in design: panel configurations from 2 to 6 panels, multiple frame finishes (powder-coated or wood-grain), a range of glass types (tinted, reflective, or low-E), and premium hardware options.
How do the folding doors improve energy efficiency?
Multi-chamber aluminium profiles combined with high-quality low-E glazing minimize heat transfer and help maintain comfortable indoor temperatures year-round.
What kind of maintenance is required?
Regular cleaning of glass and frames with mild soap and water, plus occasional lubrication of hinges and tracks, keeps the system operating smoothly for years.
What is the installation process like?
Our expert team manages every step, from precise measurements to final fitting. Most installations are completed within a few days, depending on size and complexity.
