In the past the only option when one replaced their windows and did not want to use wood was grey aluminium. Therefore, we are left with a legacy of spoiled period homes which in some cases constitute a fire hazard because windows were fashioned without large enough opening sashes to escape through.

Although of poor quality initially, white PVCu designs became available and have now become of outstanding quality.

Home owners now have a much better selection of door and window materials and styles to select from.

The patio door market has been very big for many years because they offer an very good and convenient solution to let light and air in a house. They also provide an outstanding thermal barrier when shut. The summit of the patio door marketplace is the Bifold door which offers effective versatility and outstanding aesthetics. If you are thinking of purchasing patio doors you should consider investing in a bifold door.

Bi fold doors can be configured to span a very wide opening or smaller spaces, behaving when closed as a glass wall to let in increased light and to allow sweeping views over the outside vista or garden. They can open an entire wall to allow smooth consolidation of outside and interior areas, for instance, for parties or for kids to play safely inside and outside on a beautiful day. They are also ideal for maximizing space in restricted situations such as an opening onto a balcony in a small apartment.
Fully opened, the doors concertina and store compactly to left, right or both sides to limit their intrusion. If full opening is not required the doors can configured as french style doors or even as a single opening door.

Available in many of the latest materials, including wood, aluminium, PVCu and aluminium clad timber, this product is available in a good range of colours and finishes from specialist window companies. It is in particular attractive in aluminium clad timber where the selection of colour on the maintenance-free aluminium outside can complement your homes outside whilst the warmth and grain of the woods can enhance any interior.
