Aluminium Bi-fold Doors – What do I need to consider?

You need to know all the options before purchasing the perfect doors for your home. Aluminium bi-fold doors offer the latest in entrance door technology and can enhance the aesthetic and functionality of your property. Here’s a quick guide to help you find the right ones for you.

What are aluminium bi-fold doors?

Aluminium bi-fold doors are a low-maintenance door system that consist of multiple panels with moving frames, so they can fold and slide together to open and close an entryway.

Why choose aluminium bi-fold doors?

With aluminium as their primary material, aluminium bi-fold doors are incredibly durable, yet lightweight, and have impressive weathering resistance. When open, the panels stack neatly against each other to create a wide opening and maximise the available space, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor areas.

What are my options?

Sizing

Aluminium bi-fold doors can be customised to fit a variety of styles and preferences. The properties of aluminium allow bi-folds to be configured in various sizes according to taste, whether you’re after something minimal or a full feature wall. The glass panes welcome in plenty of natural light, so it’s important to consider where other light sources are in your room, and the size of the panoramic opening the doors will bring.

Hardware

Bi-fold doors have various glazing options, which will affect insulation and energy efficiency. Thicker glazing will also enhance the security they offer, as this will make the structure much more robust. As a finishing touch, bi-folds also feature an extensive range of handles and hinges in a variety of styles, which are key in developing your desired door.

Colour and texture

Aluminium doors with powder coatings come in a wide range of colours, so they continue, not disconnect, your theme. Bi-folds can also be transformed by a range of textured glass, which can dramatically shift the style of the room they are part of.

Cost

Cost is of course key in all home renovation projects. Aluminium bi-fold doors are completely customisable, which can lead to intricate designs and higher price points if desired –but it doesn’t have to be that complicated!
