Kerb Appeal, Beautiful and Safe
Bifold doors enable you to make that beautiful connection from inside to out, thanks to their fully opening design. Unlike sliding or French doors, when fully open, you can enjoy completely unobstructed views of your garden and naturally extend your living space. Generally, bifold doors work best when the outside area is the same level, in order for this space to feel as though it’s part of the house.
Our doors are very secure!
As a major access point to your home, it’s natural to be concerned regarding security, but there’s no need to panic as all of our bifold doors are highly secure! The master door has a multi-point locking mechanism with hook bolts, intermediate doors have bolts to top and bottom.
Bespoke solutions
At Belfast Bifolds & Aluminium Systems, all of our bifold doors are made-to-measure and the number of panels required will be based on your dimensions. Fewer panels will result in a clearer view and allow for more natural light to flood through, and of course, we recommend a single access door for ease.
No need to worry at all!
All of our bifold doors offer high performance and market-leading energy efficiency! Boasting low U-values, you can enjoy a reduced carbon footprint and save on your heating bills.
We can help you find the solution best for your needs
A question our customers are often faced with is: sliding or bifold doors? Whilst both options provide various different benefits, it really depends on what it is you want to achieve. If you’re seeking a door that opens up to full-width, blurring the boundaries, then bifold doors are ideal.
