At UK BiFold we understand that no single solution will be suitable for every customer. Weather its open in or out, Standard or Low threshold we will always try to get the right product to suit your individual needs.
We do not employ salespeople as our prices are published and available to all customers, ensuring you get the very best deal on Aluminium Bi Folding Doors.
Prices
We are not aware of any other companies who openly display their supply only Bi Fold prices online. We think that even though this is a great new innovative product, why should it be that one customer has to pay silly prices while another customer gets a fair price?
Security
Always high on the customers “must have list” we have invested in the very best locks available to compliment robust handles and internal glazing as standard.
Weatherproof
As far as we know ours is the only system that uses a “wrap around door sash” which not only offers superior weather performance but improves the look of the finished doors. Most other systems have thick ugly black gaskets where the doors meet!
Ease of Use
Bi Fold Doors are highly engineered to be able to withstand the rigors of everyday use. Not too long ago they were used predominantly in commercial situations where they had to be designed for very heavy usage. Words cannot describe how smoothly our doors operate, so we invite you to come and feel for yourself at one of our 3 showrooms.

Bi Fold Aluminium Doors - What are Bi Folding Doors?
Bi Fold Aluminium Doors, as shown in the animations above, include a series of individual panels connected using high-tech hinges and rollers. These durable rollers allow for smooth opening singularly, partially or fully.
Bifold door tracks are seamlessly fitted to the top and bottom of the strong aluminium outer frame using machine screws for added security. Tracks hold rollers firmly, so doors seal together tightly. Bifold door rollers are manufactured using carefully engineered steel gearing, moving smoothly back and forth along the full length of the aperture.
Also known as Folding Doors , Bi Fold Doors , or Slide and Fold Doors . They are doors that traditionally were used in commercial applications like decorative and functional restaurant fronts. As such, they’re typically found in warmer climates. So the restaurant owner can quickly and easily open them fully when the sun shines to bring a piece of the outdoors into the interior atmosphere.
How are modern Bi Fold Doors different?
In warmer climates, Bi Fold Doors did not traditionally need thermal efficiency or tight security. They, instead, acted as a barrier to the elements when the temperature was a bit low for alfresco dining.
In the framework of the Kyoto protocol European States aim to counter the greenhouse effect and decrease the energy use of buildings by 40% by 2020. In order to meet this goal, various measures were taken, one of which was the European Directive on the energy performance of buildings. These regulations primarily involve the energy performance of buildings, alternative energy sources, better use of climate regulation and lighting, bioclimatological concept, etc.
Eynaers systems meet the requirements in this European Directive as well as the various national norms with respect to energy performance.
Energy savings using several chambers
In two- or three-chamber systems the profiles are made up of two or three separate compartments, filled with air, referred to as chambers. Just like in hollow walls the air acts as an insulator in the chambers. In the space between the chambers we place fibreglass-reinforced polyamid strips (hard plastic). The wider the filled space, the higher the insulation value, and the lower your energy bill!
For years, aluminium has been the preferred choice for commercial door construction because of its intrinsic strength-to-weight ratio. Architects often request aluminium for their buildings because of its sleek style when compared to PVCu. Best of all, aluminium is a reliable choice for bi fold doors when used over the long-term.
