Panel configuration
Choose how many leaves are required and which side or sides they will fold towards.
Doors
Bi-fold doors use a series of glazed panels that fold and slide towards one or both sides of the aperture. When open, they can connect a kitchen, dining room or extension more directly with the patio or garden.

Product overview
The number of panels, folding direction and position of the everyday access door all need to be decided before manufacture. The best configuration depends on opening width, room layout and the route outside.
Prime will discuss the practical panel arrangements, colour and glazing choices available for the selected system.
Planning your project
Choose how many leaves are required and which side or sides they will fold towards.
Some arrangements provide a single everyday access leaf without folding all panels.
Internal and external levels, drainage and the surrounding structure require careful assessment.

Not always. Some configurations include a traffic door that can be used independently. Availability depends on the panel arrangement.
That depends on the width of the opening, the selected system and the preferred folding configuration. We confirm this after surveying the property.
