Replacement windows and doors used to only be available in grey aluminium if you didnt want wood and the styles rarely improved the aesthetics of the buildings they adorned. The upshot of this are many esthetically ruined period homes with windows which are now a fire hazard because they openings are too narrow to escape through.

And then they became available in white PVC which were firstly cheap and of poor quality and bad design but which went on to become the excellent quality they are today and designed to suit the house not the pocket.

As the old-fashioned designs become out-of-date, house owners now have a plethora of window and door styles and materials to choose from.

The patio door market has been very big for many years because they offer an very good and convenient solution to let light and air in a house. They also provide an excellent thermal barrier when shut. Patio doors have recently made way for the “Rolls Royce in this market which is now the enormously variable Bi fold door. If you are thinking of purchasing patio doors you should consider investing in a bifold door.

Bifold doors can be organized to span a very wide aperture or smaller spaces, behaving when closed as a glass wall to let in increased light and to offer panoramic views over the outside scene or garden. They can very easily open up an entire wall to allow smooth integration of outside and interior areas, e.g., for parties or for kids to play safely inside and outside on a beautiful day. Instead, they can serve to extend available space in restricted areas, such as providing inclusion of a balcony to form part of a small flat on a clement day or lightening up an otherwise dark corner.

Fully opened, the doors concertina and store compactly to left, right or both sides to limit their intrusion. They can be incorporated to provide french style doors when full opening is not required and a single opening door for pedestrian access in the normal way.

Specialist Bifold Door companies offer the doors in hardwood, PVCu, aluminium and aluminium clad timber in a wide range of finishes and colours. Although pricey, aluminium clad timber, gives you the quality finish inside and the selection of colours and low maintenance options provided by aluminium cladding.
