By Now Aluminium
Creating a stronger connection between the kitchen and garden was the key motivation behind this aluminium bifold door installation.
James, Director at Green Rooms wanted to open up their living space and make better use of their outdoor area, transforming the decking into a natural extension of the home rather than a separate zone.
“We wanted to create a better flow between the kitchen and the garden. The aim was to remove the barrier between indoors and out so the decking area could feel like a true extension of our living space. It wasn’t just about aesthetics. It was about making the space more practical and enjoyable to use day to day.”
The Space Before the Transformation
Before the bifold doors were installed, the relationship between the kitchen and the garden felt disconnected. The existing patio doors limited both movement and visibility, preventing the outdoor area from being used to its full potential.
Describing the space prior to the upgrade, James said,
“Before the installation, the decking area outside the kitchen felt completely separate from the house. The old patio doors were heavy, awkward to open, and only ever opened halfway, which made the whole area feel disconnected. It just didn’t feel like one continuous, usable space.”
This separation meant the decking area was often overlooked, even during warmer weather.
A Noticeable Change in How the Space Is Used
Once the aluminium bifold doors were installed, the change in how the space functioned was immediate. With the doors fully open, the kitchen now opens directly onto the decking, creating a large, open living area that can be enjoyed inside and out.
Reflecting on the transformation, James shared,
“It’s made a massive difference to how we use the space. The kitchen now flows straight out onto the decking, and when the doors are fully open, it feels like one big indoor outdoor area. We spend far more time outside now, and the whole area feels more relaxed and functional.”
The improved flow has made the space more sociable and better suited to everyday living.
The Experience of Working with NOW Aluminium
Beyond the visual and practical improvements, James was particularly impressed with the overall experience of working with NOW Aluminium. From the initial stages through to delivery and installation, the process was described as smooth and well organised.
In his words,
“The professionalism from start to finish was genuinely impressive. Communication was spot on, the doors arrived exactly when expected, and installation was simple because the frame came pre assembled and everything fit together perfectly. You can really tell the doors are high quality, smooth to operate and built to last.”
The pre assembled frame helped ensure installation was efficient and precise, reinforcing confidence in the quality of the finished result.
A Recommendation Based on Real Experience
The impact of the bifold doors, combined with the straightforward process, has led James to confidently recommend both aluminium bifold doors and NOW Aluminium.
“The bifold doors have completely changed how we use the kitchen and garden, and NOW Aluminium made the whole process stress free.”
And when looking back at the whole project, James was clearly impressed with the result. Summing up the transformation, he concluded,
“The bifold doors have genuinely transformed how we live in the space, blending the indoors and outdoors in a way that just works. One of the best upgrades we’ve made to the house.”
