The primary cause of aluminum siding failure is improper installation, particularly inadequate handling of thermal expansion. Aluminum expands and contracts significantly with temperature fluctuations. If panels lack proper expansion joints, fasteners are over-tightened, or substructures are misaligned, stress accumulates, leading to warping, joint failure, or fastener pull-out. Poor drainage design exacerbates issues by trapping moisture, accelerating corrosion.
At Xtra Metal Group, we mitigate these risks through precision-engineered systems tailored to local climate conditions. Our 30+ years of global project expertise ensure rigorous quality control in manufacturing and installation supervision, while our integrated supply chain guarantees material consistency. Customized solutions, including thermal-break designs and corrosion-resistant coatings, further enhance durability for complex architectural applications.
