An Introduction to Bifold Doors

Discover the elegance and functionality of bifold doors in this comprehensive introduction. Bifold doors are a versatile solution for both interior and exterior spaces, combining style, space-saving design, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. In this guide, you’ll learn about the key features of bifold doors, including their materials, mechanisms, and installation options. Whether you’re considering them for your home or a commercial project, this introduction will help you understand why bifold doors are a popular choice for modern architecture and interior design.

Discover Beautiful Bi-Folding Door Designs

These concertina doors offer plenty of customization options. You can choose the number of panels, the opening direction (left or right), and whether to include a primary door. You also have the flexibility to decide if they open inward toward your home or outward onto your patio.

Choose an Even Number of Bifold Panels

Bifold doors with two, four, or six panels create a sense of symmetry. A six-panel design, which splits in the middle and folds neatly to both ends, is a popular alternative to traditional sliding patio doors. With four panels, you can include a primary door at one end while the remaining panels fold to the opposite side for easy access and style.

Choose an Odd Number of Bifold Panels

In designs with three, five, or seven glass panels, one of the bifold doors functions as a convenient traffic door. For added practicality, you may choose to include a primary door, allowing easy access without the need to open the entire bifold system.

Why Bifold Doors Are a Great Choice

Make the Most of Sunny Days

From spring onward, open your bifold doors on warm days to enjoy the outdoors. Perfect for patios and decks, bifold doors create a seamless connection between your home and the outside.

Natural Light and Solar Benefits

Bifold doors not only brighten up any home, making them highly desirable, but they also provide warmth during the winter months. Aluminium bifold doors help retain heat by minimizing thermal transfer through the frame.

Doors Stack Smoothly to the Side

Bifold doors fold neatly, taking up minimal space. Perfect for barbecues or garden parties, they provide a wider opening than regular doors, giving your guests more room to mingle.

Why Aluminium is the Top Choice

Aluminium external bifold doors require minimal maintenance. Unlike timber or uPVC, they resist warping in all weather and feature a durable powder-coated finish that can last for decades. Their strength allows for slim frames, offering an uninterrupted view of your outdoor space.

Flexible Designs and Dimensions

Bifold doors are fully customizable and fit a variety of home styles. Sizes range from two panels up to seven panels, with the largest doors measuring up to 6200mm wide and 2400mm high.

The Working Mechanism of Bifold Doors

Bifold doors are made up of multiple glass panels, called ‘leaves,’ that glide along a track. When opened, the panels fold together like a concertina and stack neatly to one side, keeping the interior space completely open and unobstructed.
Bifold doors can feature an even or odd number of panels and often include a main door that swings in or out, allowing easy access without having to open the entire set.
