Vufold Company Profile
Vufold manufactures folding sliding doors and French doors crafted to high standards but offered at an affordable price. The company recognised the increasing demand for stylish folding sliding door sets but understood that bespoke sliding doors were beyond the reach of many people, so designed robust off-the-shelf systems with the same attention to detail.
All Vufold door sets are produced in a woodworking factory using the latest hi-tech machinery to maintain consistent high quality. High security and thermal efficiency are designed into every range. All door sets carry a straightforward 10-year guarantee.
The folding sliding timber door sets come in a wide selection of materials and finishes including solid European oak, low maintenance aluminium clad real oak, engineered hardwood core with oak veneer and engineered hardwood core with white coated hardwood veneer. External and internal folding sliding doors and French door pair sets are available in many sizes from 4ft to 16ft. Producing the sliding doors in large numbers enables Vufold to keep prices down.
