LEADING UK BIFOLD DOOR SUPPLIERS

Bifold doors are doors designed to be used in closets, pantries, and in some cases as folding doors between rooms. Bifold doors are always done in pairs, with two doors folding to oneside, or with four doors, split in the centre of the opening, with two doors folding back to each side.

Solarlux Bifold Doors. A typical bifold door is supplied by Solarlux. The folding system SL 35 is an aluminium construction of non-insulated profiles with a 35 mm panel construction depth. The running and guide rails for the folding doors have a construction depth of 45 mm. Air permeability class 2 in accordance with DIN EN 12 207 (climatic stress group "B" in accordance with DIN 18 055) has been achieved. The panels of the folding doors can be folded inwards or outwards (bi-folding). A sturdy connection between panel profiles is made via die-cast corner fittings. Hinge pins for the folding doors are integrated with the die-cast corner fittings. The bottom rail is available with or without a threshold and can, as an option, be set into the floor. The design without threshold is for shop fronts or for "barrier-free dwellings" in compliance with DIN 18 025. The running and guide rails for the folding doors are flush-mounted into the system. The system of folding doors is constructed so that height tolerances and expansion are allowed for without leading to a fault in function or impermeability.
