Maintenance: The uPVC doors don’t require a lot of maintenance. Homeowners just have to clean them with pieces of clothes. However, they should not use the material which may cause scratches. Scratches create the holes for water droplets and dust particles. This decreases the life of doors.

Even after considering all the maintenance costs, the PVC doors are still affordable in comparison to the other counterparts available. 

Multiple versions: Based on requirements, a PVC door has multiple versions. For example a PVC foldable door, PVC fiber door and PVC glass door. To attach a PVC door, PVC door frame and PVC CHOKHAT is used. PVC door CHOKHAT is important as it holds the door. In between all the options discussed above, PVC foldable doors are used for division of space. For example for creating multiple cabins in one room. 

Insulation: Polyvinyl chloride helps in maintaining room temperature. That’s why it is widely used for trapping air. For example, in summers it is used in trapping cool air of air conditioners and in winters for trapping hot air of heaters. Because of this insulation property, the air conditioners and heaters work with efficiency and the electricity bills are low.
