In this article, we will take you through some of the benefits of our bifold doors. This will help you make an informed decision and whether you should get one installed. Read on to find out more.

What Is A Bifold Door?

A bifold door is described as a door that has two more folding sections that fold outwards. This will bring fresh air and extra thermal efficiency, keeping your property warmer in the long run. Our bifold doors come with advanced double glazing as standard, which looks attractive to the eye and saves plenty of money on your energy bills.

When choosing a bifold door, it can be used to separate any room in your house. While traditionally found connecting your house to your garden, the thin doors could also separate a bedroom or a kitchen. This will naturally connect the house together, adding a seamless look.

We work with manufacturers such as Origin and REAL which give the door strength and durability. This will allow it to weather storms and other tough conditions. A bifold door keeps your home safe, making it an inspired choice. The doors are available in both uPVC and aluminium, giving the user a large choice.

How Do They Work?

Now, you might be thinking about how the door works. They are simple and effective to use, operating on a slider that lets them be fully functional. The doors fold out like a concertina, which let fresh air into your door. If you have a big door that connects to your garden, it will maximise the space significantly.

Bifold doors consist of panels that slide on gliders in the floor to the upper area of the doorway. These doors will create a bigger living space that boosts the functionality of the space without removing the functionality of the entranceway.

Bifold Doors Come In A Range Of Outstanding Colours

When you are looking for a bifold door from Panoramic, we offer you a selection of RAL colours that will boost the look and feel of your home. A popular choice is Anthracite Grey which gives your property an industrial and serious feel. Alternatively, you can go for a vibrant colour that brightens up your home. This includes Yellow or Chartwell Green, a perfect choice if you are looking for something more natural.

Furthermore, you will get a versatile choice of striking options thanks to our RAL selection. This gives you an unlimited range which helps design the doors bespoke to your needs. All our selections come with slim sightlines and outstanding double glazing, so you will get outstanding panoramic views. The doors are an ideal replacement for French doors as they require less space.

Bifold Doors Are Thermally Efficient

When considering a bifold door, you will benefit from its outstanding thermal efficiency. The double glazing will keep natural heat inside your home, leaving cold air outside. As a result, you will save plenty of money on your energy bills, spending money on the things that matter.

Adding to the doors’ thermal efficiency capabilities, the double glazing lets floods of natural light into your property. This will save money on your electricity bills, keeping you warmer in the long term.

How Much Do They Cost?

There are many factors to determine the cost of a bifold door. This includes double glazing and insulation, which will increase the price significantly. The same can be said for the specific materials, for example, aluminium is more expensive than uPVC. However, it will prove to be a long term investment because aluminium is more durable and energy efficient.
