Bi-folding Doors
Aluminium bi-folding doors are a revolutionary product that has rapidly grown in popularity over the past ten years. Aluminium is undoubtedly the most suitable material for the manufacture of bi- folding doors, it is both strong and lightweight, it will not contract or expand in extreme weather conditions, and it is almost maintenance free, plus aluminium can be powder coated to any colour. We supply the two industry leading folding door systems, the Schüco, and the Smart.
Schüco Information
The Schüco system is the finest bi-folding door manufactured in the UK. The Schüco system is fully adjustable due to its superb engineering and design and allows us to offer the largest bi-folding door panels in the marketplace as it has no stricter size limitations meaning individual panels can be manufactured as taller or wider than the Smart, this is however reflected in the price, meaning the Smart is a more cost effective option than the Schüco.Both the Schüco and Smart are superb products in their own right, the Schüco is ideal for commercial and residential applications, while the Smart is ideal for replacement doors, new extensions and residential new-builds.
