Folding Sliding Door Companies in the UK

Types and Advantages

Folding sliding doors have been popular in Continental Europe for many decades and are now being chosen for more and more UK homes as the trend for ‘bringing the outdoors in’ is encouraged by home design programmes.

Because these doors take up very little space when folded back, a much wider opening is created than with conventional sliding doors, giving unrestricted access onto a patio or terrace area.

Folding sliding doors – often called bi fold doors – are also frequently used as room dividers.

By choosing a robust system that uses slim, sturdy frames with large glazing panels; maximum light is allowed in and views are not obstructed.

Modern bi folding doors incorporate extensive lock mechanisms and meet high security standards.
