Repairing an aluminum frame requires meticulous attention to best practices to ensure both structural integrity and safety. Unlike traditional steel frames, aluminum is more susceptible to heat distortion and requires precise handling. The certified technicians here at Beverly Collision Center are well equipped with the latest top of the line industry equipment to handle aluminum frame repairs for these specialty vehicles.
First, it’s crucial to assess the extent of the damage using specialized equipment to determine whether the frame can be repaired or needs replacement. During the repair process, maintaining correct heat levels is essential, as excessive heat can weaken the aluminum.

The Strength of Aluminum
A new trend in mass produced vehicles, aluminum frames in cars like the Jaguar XF and trucks like the F-150 boosts acceleration and fuel efficiency while maintaining the renowned power. It proves that a lighter frame can still be highly capable and durable.
Unlike steel, aluminum doesn’t rust, which means the aluminum body lasts longer and requires less maintenance. This is especially beneficial in harsh climates, extending the vehicle life and resale value.
Aluminum’s recyclability makes these models more eco-friendly. At the end of its life, the aluminum can be recycled, lowering the environmental impact of production and disposal.
