Bi-Folding Doors
NEW CONCERTINA DOOR COMBINATIONS
Concertina door combinations have always been
a popular choice of door either as a patio door or as a way
of opening up the side of a conservatory, however they have
almost always proved cost prohibitive due to the lengthy
manufacturing time and complicated operating systems.
In recent months we have been asked more and more
about concertina or bi-folding door combinations. After
some lengthy research we have found a suitable operating
system that is far cheaper than other systems we have
looked at and with this new system our existing Deceuninck
profiles can be used to fabricate the doors. This cuts down
the fabrication time and also means we can take advantage
of the discounts we have with the Deceuninck system. It
also means that the door can be fabricated to in 60mm or
70mm profiles in white, rosewood, mahogany or light oak.
The operating systems is where the leap forward has been
made and with this new hardware the doors can be made in
almost any combination from a full concertina door to a single
door combined with a concertina door.
The main advantage of this type of door is that it can be used
to completely open up an aperture either from the house or
from the conservatory with out the constraints of French
doors and sliding doors.
(i.e size constraints and a constricted opening space)
The photos shown are of a concertina door we have recently
fitted in Ilkeston leading from the house into the conservatory.
Alternatively we think that this type of door is perfect as a way
of opening up a large aperture on a conservatory. Not only
will it give a feeling of light and space but bring the garden
into the conservatory, perfect summer barbeques and for
people who really enjoy the outdoors.
While this type of door has made a huge leap forward and is
much cheaper than it used to be it is still more than a French
or sliding door but we think with the benefits of this type of
door far outweigh the difference in price.
