WANT TO TRANSFORM YOUR SPACE AND CREATE A SEAMLESS CONNECTION BETWEEN INDOORS AND OUT? WE SHARE THE BEAUTY OF BIFOLDS
Bifold doors

One of the most important decisions when renovating a house or designing a new extension is the type of doors you include. For external glazed doors, you can choose French doors, sliding or pivot doors. But if the idea of an unobstructed view of your garden is key, then bifold doors might be the answer. We’ve asked the experts to reveal all the info you want and need.

WHAT ARE BIFOLDS?

Made up of a set of glazed panels that can slide or concertina, bifold doors effectively open up the entire wall of a house. Unlike sliding or French doors, bifolding designs stack neatly out of the way, providing gloriously open access to the garden, creating an expansive feel.

Bifolds can open left or right, inside or outside, and even fold around corners. It’s also possible to fit bifolds with a single door that can be used independently of the rest, giving you more flexible access to your garden.
