Bi-Fold or Sliding Doors: Our Guide to Help You Decide
Both bi-fold and sliding doors are effective in welcoming more light into your home and for allowing easy access to the garden. But which is right...
Available Materials:
Our bi-folding products provide a seamless view of the outdoors. Manufactured from quality materials and expertly fitted by our qualified installers, our aluminium bifold doors are our most popular option and with good reason; because of aluminium’s natural strength, they can be built with ultra-slender sightlines, resulting in a chic, contemporary appearance for the home.
Bifold doors are a versatile door solution that helps to bring the outside in, creating optimum access to your garden. Opened in a concertina folding style, their ease of operation makes them a good alternative to sliding patio and French doors.
In addition to aluminium bi-folding doors, we provide an extensive selection of timber folding doors, so you can find the perfect look for your home.

However, we use the latest thermal technologies on our other bifold door ranges, so no matter which material you prefer, you’re getting an energy efficient solution.
We take the time to source and install only the best quality bi-folding doors, ensuring you are always delighted with both the style and function of your bi-fold product. Guarantee your home and possessions remain safe and secure with our incredibly practical, secure and easy to operate bi-folding doors.
It can seem daunting to find a bi-folding door that is both functional and sophisticated. With a wide range of colours, styles and finishes to choose from and the support of an experienced team member, it has never been easier to create the perfect door to suit your home’s character.

Thanks to the use of high-quality, durable materials and state of the art technology, our aluminium bi-folding doors are incredibly strong and built to last. Fitted with a multi-point locking system and supported by locking shoot-bolts, security hinges and toughened glass, they are also incredibly secure. Their security features include:
When all the panels are closed, the sight line of our aluminium folding doors is just 132mm. This affords you an uninhibited view through the glass, simultaneously allowing a great amount of natural light inside the property, leading to a brighter environment.
The profiles feature polyamide thermal breaks to enhance thermal performance and improve the U-Value. When using a centre pane that has a U-Value of 1.0 W/m²k, they can achieve an overall U-value of just 1.5W/m²K. The double rebated top and bottom tracks also provide a tight weather seal, keeping the heat in and the weather out.
Each bi-fold system has been tested and passed stringent weather tests, confirming they truly keep the worst weather outside:
Equipped with stainless steel wheels and tracks, they can be operated with ease for years to come. We also provide the choice of either a low threshold, which make it easier to transition through the doors along with rebated thresholds that offer improved weather resistance.
