Customising Your Bifold Doors

When deciding on the number of panels and overall size for your bifold doors, consider the following:

Available Space

Measure your aperture carefully. We recommend taking multiple measurements as outlined in our Measuring Guide

Opening Size

More panels allow for a wider opening, but also require more stacking space when fully open.

Glass-to-Frame Ratio

Fewer, wider panels mean larger glass areas and less visible frame when closed.

Traffic Door

For frequent use, consider incorporating a traffic door for easy access without opening the entire system.

Weight Distribution

Larger panels are heavier. Our expert team can advise on the best configuration for smooth operation.
