Bifold doors

Bifold doors are versatile doors that fold and slide to suit your space

Bifold doors, also known as folding sliding doors, continue to grow in popularity across the UK. They bring the outside in, allowing for plenty of natural light and welcoming a broader view of leafy gardens and sunlit patios.

Designed with 100% versatility in mind, these doors can be adjusted to suit multiple room configurations. And because they fold back on themselves, they take up less space than French doors and conventional sliding doors.

Benefits of Bifold Doors

• From Smart Systems, Schuco and Cortizo system designs, homeowners can access a range of quality bifold door products on the market.
• The overall product aesthetic is modern and innovative. These unique doors will instantly elevate any space leading outdoors.
• Since bifold doors come in various colours and styles, they can be individually tailored to suit a range of property styles across the UK.
• Need more space? Bifold doors can be folded right back, opening up entrances and widening living areas. This feature makes them perfect for increasing the size of entertainment spaces within any home.
• These doors offer greater control and adjustability. You can decide how wide you’d like the panels to open depending on factors such as the weather or noise.
• Bifold doors also retain heat since they are specially designed to comply with a ‘u-value’. This measurement is used to gauge how effective a material is as an insulator.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bifold Doors

What is a bifold door?

Unlike traditional sliding doors, which simply slide open and close, bifold doors can fold back against themselves to open up any space. They are quite similar to a concertina-style but with added versatility. They can take on multiple configurations depending on how you want them and are predominantly used on verandas and patios or any entrance area leading outdoors.

How do bifold doors work?

With bifold doors, there are usually several panels connected by hinges that run along a concealed track on the floor and ceiling. They work by gliding along this tracking system, folding in on themselves when opened and straightening when closed. They are easy to operate and easy to install.

What’s the difference between sliding doors and bifold doors?

Sliding doors tend to consist of two or more large glass panes of glass that open and close sideways on a frame. Bifold doors, on the other hand, consist of multiple glass panels. When fully opened, these are stacked to one side. Unlike sliding doors, they operate on several hinges which run along a track, creating a wider entrance or opening than sliding doors.

Bifold Doors: Our Promise of High Quality

The Bifolding Door Factory’s range of doors is made to the highest calibre. Each product is created from a fine blend of German engineering and British manufacturing.

Our aluminium bifold doors are manufactured in our Birmingham factory from a well-designed blueprint. We never skimp on quality and manufacture all our doors and windows using modern, state-of-the-art CNC machinery.

When the bifold doors are on the assembly line, our team takes the utmost care to ensure that each frame is perfectly level and in proportion. Before the final packaging, our quality controllers inspect each door to ensure the assembly staff continues to produce that high standard we are so well known for.

Our internal factory production manual ensures all assembly staff adheres to all product improvements. Constantly updating our manuals and our production processes ensures that we always create the best aluminium bifold doors that we possibly can.

The Rise of Aluminium Products

Due to their strength, durability, and ease of maintenance, Aluminium-based doors and windows have become popular products in the home improvement market. For years, homeowners have enjoyed elevating their outdoor areas with these systems and improving the overall layout of their social spaces.

Our aluminium bifold doors have quickly become one of the must-have additions to new homes and extensions across the UK. This style of door is especially perfect during the summer months, when doors can be left open just a little wider to welcome the joys of nature in.

Thanks to recent glazing and insulation (u-value) developments, having more glass doesn’t automatically mean that your house will be colder during the winter. This means you can soak up the views during the colder months whilst savouring the warmth of your home.
