Bi-Folding Doors

Low Maintenance – You won’t have to do any repainting or maintenance as we use high-grade aluminium to craft our bi-folding doors. This material is also scratch and fade-resistant, so it will counter the ageing process. If the bi-folds ever look a little dirty, you will only need a wet cloth to remove any trace of grime and will hardly need to put any effort in to wipe the frames clean. We conceal the running system to keep it free of any obstructions so that the bi-folds always run smoothly.

Easy Glide System – At the bottom of each individual portion of the door is a solid aluminium carriage which houses the four wheels that run inside a low threshold track. The wheels are made out of a high resilient nylon material, one that can resist degradation caused by heat or friction. These wheels spin around a hardened stainless steel shaft on its own set of bearings along a stainless steel track.

Low Level Threshold – This is ideal if you want a flawless finish inside and out, and there are two possible options; weather and non-weathered. Creating a stunning effect, they will help you create one space out of two.

While there is only one possible configuration for a 2 pane bi-folding door, it is the option of having an inward or outward opening, which is handy if you’re squeezed for space. This minimalist design will be ideal if you want to connect an internal space to an orangery or conservatory, or you could have it incorporated into the smallest facet of the extension to establish a garden opening.

Practical – It will be massively practical to have bi-folding doors fitted into an area of your house if you foresee yourself frequently exchanging environments in the most fashionable manner possible.

Effortless – To look at them, you would expect to have to exert a lot of energy to get bi-folding doors moving, but the gliding rollers make them easily manoeuvrable. Within just a few seconds you can create an opening of your choosing, which will be a nice luxury to have when playing host to family and friends at home.

Contemporary – It has become a very modern trend to have bi-folding doors fitted in homes. There is something captivating about their appearance and the way they concertina when they’re pushed open. The view you get through a fully extended bi-folding door will also be nothing short of mesmerising.

The multi-point locking system is integral to the secure nature of a bi-folding door. This advanced lock engages at several points and in several directions into a robust lock keep, which keeps the door sash firmly fixed to the door frame.

Bi-folding doors can be supplied with double or triple glazed units, and the glass panes we use in these units are unbelievably tough and energy efficient. The cylinder locks sit inside the high-security master handles to deter thieves and remove the threat of burglary.

Generally, three types of handle are affixed to our bi-folding doors, no matter how they’re configured. Pass doors and integrated French doors will require a master handle which will house a cylinder lock, and will be used to engage the multi-point locking system when the bi-fold door is in the closed position.

Each bi-folding section will also entail the use of both a D-handle and an intermediate handle. The latter is uses to release the folding panes from the door frame when opening and, of course, re-engage them when closing. A D-handle is used to push or pull the folding panes as appropriate. Within our hardware range we offer both contemporary and traditional master handles which are colour matched by the intermediate and D-handles.

If you thought we offer a generous number of configurations for our bi-folding doors, just wait until you see how many coloured finishes there are available. Along with our famous powder-coating finishes, we can also supply you with three sublimated woodgrain finishes in Walnut, Rosewood or Oak. We should also make you aware that you can have a dual-coloured finish if you want different colours on either side of the aluminium framework.

Woodgrain Finishes

A woodgrain finish is strongly recommended if you want to ensure your bi-folds complement your current windows and doors. It will make people mistake the aluminium bi-folds for timber bi-folds too. The powder-coating helps to preserve the woodgrain effect and protect it from weather damage, so you can look forward to a lifetime of the most beautiful bi-folding doors in the neighbourhood.
