The threshold matters

An entrance is the first thing every visitor touches — and the floor's first line of defense. A well-engineered matting zone captures the majority of the dirt and moisture tracked into a building, protecting the finishes behind it for decades.

Why ALUEK

GEGGUS-grade quality, written and sold the American way.

The premium incumbents route US architects through distributors and EU codes. The commodity sellers hide behind a phone number. ALUEK gives specifiers everything they need — on one domain, at factory-direct value.

01

Engineered for America, made in Türkiye

Premium aluminum craftsmanship from a NATO-ally manufacturing base, documented the way US architects specify — inch + mm dimensioning, CSI 12 48 13 language, and ASTM/ANSI-referenced performance.

02

Specifier-first, not sales-gated

Everything you need to draw, detail and specify lives on aluektrim.com — guide specs, CAD details, BIM-ready files, dual-unit datasheets and samples. No distributor in the middle, no login wall.

03

Heavy-commercial duty, custom to the opening

Extruded 6063 aluminum tread rails engineered for carts, trolleys and relentless footfall — fabricated to any size, curve or zoned layout, recessed or surface-mounted to fit your threshold exactly.

04

Factory-direct, fast and recyclable

Buy direct from the people who extrude it: factory-direct pricing, nationwide US shipping, and lead times engineered to beat trans-Atlantic suppliers. Aluminum is endlessly recyclable; anodizing is zero-VOC.

Specifier resource hub

Everything you need to specify — no distributor, no login.

The single biggest gap in this category. Every competitor gates files behind partners and registration walls. We publish them, openly, in the formats US architects actually use.

Files are organized on crawlable, indexable pages — discoverable by search and by your spec tools, not buried in a portal.

What you get

Built to be specified, ordered and lived with.

The capabilities that make ALUEK an easy “yes” for the architect, the contractor and the owner alike.

Custom-manufactured to your exact opening

Any size, curve, radius corner or zoned scraping-and-wiping layout — fabricated in single pieces to avoid unsightly joins. Recessed flush, or surface-mounted with a tapered ramp where no recess exists.

Heavy-commercial rolling and static loads

Reinforced 6063 aluminum profiles on rubber bearers carry luggage trolleys, pallet jacks and forklift traffic. We publish the test basis per system — not just adjectives.

Designed to support ADA-compliant installs

Flush level thresholds, beveled transitions and rail openings that won't pass a ½-inch sphere when set in a level recess. We give you the geometry to meet ADA and ICC A117.1.

Interchangeable inserts for every soil type

Ribbed rubber, ribbed carpet, nylon scraper, brush strip, abrasive grit and vinyl — selected by soil zone and swappable later to refresh the entrance without replacing the aluminum carrier.

Spec-ready documentation, on your terms

CSI 12 48 13 guide-spec language, CAD details, BIM-ready files, dual inch/mm datasheets and finish libraries — from crawlable pages with no distributor gate and no registration wall.

Factory-direct value, nationwide shipping

Skip the importer markup and the distributor handoff. Buy direct from the extruder, ship anywhere in the USA, with lead times engineered to outpace EU-shipped competitors.

Performance & standards

Documented to US standards — not borrowed from EU codes.

Engineered and written to the references American specifiers require. We cite the test basis per system and avoid claims a new brand can't yet substantiate.

ADA & ICC A117.1

Accessible by design

Flush transitions, beveled changes in level, and rail openings that won't pass a ½-inch sphere in a level recess. Designed to support ADA-compliant installations — final compliance lives in the flush, anchored install.

ANSI A326.3 (DCOF)

Slip resistance

Infills can be specified to a wet DCOF target using the current US AcuTest method — confirmed per insert against an accredited test report, not a withdrawn legacy number.

ASTM E648 / NFPA 253

Floor-covering fire

Textile and rubber infills can be specified to a Class I critical-radiant-flux rating; the inert aluminum tread itself is essentially non-combustible.

ASTM B221 · alloy 6063

Aluminum extrusion

Tread rails extruded from architectural 6063-T5/T6 aluminum per ASTM B221 — chosen for clean profiles, corrosion resistance and a superior anodizing response.

CSI MasterFormat 12 48 13

Spec-section ready

Documented to the exact spec section US architects write to — Entrance Floor Mats and Frames — so ALUEK drops straight into your project manual.

Recyclable aluminum

Lifecycle & LEED

Aluminum is 100% recyclable and recycling it uses up to ~95% less energy than primary metal. Zero-VOC anodized finishes and decades-long durability can contribute to LEED — points are awarded to projects, not products.

* Specific performance figures (rolling/static loads, DCOF, fire class, recycled content) are confirmed per SKU against accredited test reports before they are published as guarantees. ALUEK makes no product-level “ADA certified” claim — compliance is achieved by the flush, anchored installation.

From drawing to doorway

A made-to-measure process, engineered to be fast.

Send a detail or a rough opening size. We do the engineering, manufacturing, finishing and freight — and keep the lead time ahead of anything crossing the Atlantic.

01

Share drawings or an opening size

Send a CAD detail, a rough opening size, or even a photo. Our team scopes recessed vs. surface, traffic level, and the right infill zones for the door.

02

Engineer & specify

We return a made-to-measure proposal with CSI 12 48 13 language, dual inch/mm data, profile and frame selection, finish options and a clear price — typically within two business days.

03

Extrude & fabricate

6063 aluminum profiles are extruded, anodized or powder-coated, cut to your exact geometry, and assembled with your selected inserts and hinge — including curves, logos and zoned layouts.

04

Ship factory-direct, nationwide

Your system ships direct from the factory to anywhere in the USA, with lead times engineered to beat trans-Atlantic suppliers and freight handled end to end.

05

Install support & insert program

Installation details, on-call spec support, and a replaceable-insert program that refreshes the entrance over its life without replacing the aluminum carrier.

Built for the people who specify

One entrance system. Four people who have to say yes.

We earn the specification by giving every stakeholder exactly what they need to commit — not a sales pitch, the documents and the answers.
