Good door hardware is what makes an aluminium or automatic door open smoothly, lock securely and last for years. At Coetz Glazing we supply, fit and replace the full range of door hardware for homes and businesses across South Africa.
Handles, locks, hinges, rollers, stays and closers may be small parts, but they decide whether a door works cleanly every day or binds, sags and fails to lock. Choosing quality fittings from the start saves money and frustration later.
Door hardware for aluminium doors and windows
For our aluminium doors and windows we fit ironmongery that is matched to the frame and the way the door is used:
- Handles and lever sets — internal and external, in finishes to match the frame.
- Multi-point locks and cylinders — for security on entrance and patio doors.
- Hinges, pivots and friction stays — sized to the leaf weight so doors and windows never drop.
- Rollers and tracks — for sliding and stacking doors that glide, not drag.
- Closers and door stops — to control how a door swings and rests.
Every item is quality-graded and finished to suit the powder-coat colour of the frame, so the result looks deliberate rather than an afterthought.
Automatic door hardware and spares
Automatic entrances use their own specialised fittings — operators, sensors, drive belts, carriage rollers, controllers and locks. We supply and fit these for the full automatic doors range, and we keep the fast-moving parts in stock.
If something wears or fails, our automatic door spare parts service gets the door hardware replaced quickly, so a shopfront or entrance is never out of action for long.
Choosing the right door hardware
The best components are chosen around three things: the weight and size of the door, the level of security you need, and the finish you want. Get those right and the door feels solid and closes cleanly every time.
Our team specifies everything to the exact door, so handles sit at the right height, locks meet the security you need, and hinges or rollers are rated for the leaf weight. Nothing is over- or under-specified, which keeps both cost and callbacks down.
Finishes, quality and warranty
Fittings are available in finishes to match your frame — white, charcoal, black, bronze and natural anodised — so the ironmongery blends with the door rather than standing out. Matching finishes across a building give a consistent, professional look.
We fit trusted, quality-graded brands rather than the cheapest option, because entrance hardware is used thousands of times a year. Quality parts carry a warranty and simply last longer, and Coetz backs the supply and fit with local service.
Replacement door hardware and repairs
Worn or broken parts can usually be replaced without changing the whole door. We retrofit handles, locks, rollers, hinges and closers to existing aluminium frames, matching the original where possible.
For guidance on quality standards, see this overview of builders hardware. When you are ready, Coetz can measure, supply and fit the right parts for your project — from a single handle to a full building.
Frequently asked questions about door hardware

At minimum a handle set, a lock or multi-point lock, and hinges or rollers rated for the door. Coetz specifies the exact door hardware for your opening as part of the quote.

Yes. In most cases we retrofit new handles, locks, rollers, hinges or closers to your existing aluminium frame without replacing the door itself.
Do you supply automatic door hardware and spares?
We do. We supply and fit operators, sensors, belts, rollers and controllers, and stock the automatic door hardware and spares we install for fast repairs.

Handles, locks and hinges come in finishes to match your frame — white, charcoal, black, bronze and natural anodised.
