Are aluminium bi-fold doors better than uPVC?
Yes, aluminium bi-fold doors are stronger, more durable, and offer slimmer frames for better views and more light compared to uPVC.

What colours are available for bi-fold doors?
We offer a wide range of RAL colours, including dual-colour options and popular shades like Anthracite Grey, Black, and White.

Do your bi-fold doors come with a low threshold option?
