A folding door comprises a number of panels which the user can fold or unfold to open or close the door. The door is also dubbed ‘bi-fold door’ or ‘Concertina door’, in relevance to the musical instrument.
However, naming it a Bi-fold door is not quite accurate as it usually encompasses 2, 4, or more panels. The panels move along a track with the aid of rollers, and the user can pull them back to one side using a knob.
From room separators to kitchen entrances, bi-fold doors are surely handy. They are suitable for separating any two spaces and can extend over a considerable width, thus gaining an advantage over traditional doors with regard to both accessibility and visibility.
Your living room can look brighter and more spacious with folding doors; rather than with ordinary ones. Folding the door will open up the space that the ordinary door would have occupied.
Bi-fold doors with glass panels provide more visibility. This will enable you to watch your kids play outside, in the garden for example, while continuing your work inside the house.
An ordinary door can make your rooms stuffy due to poor aeration. On the other hand, a folding door provides good ventilation and air circulation, therefore it can be very handy in the summer.
