About ProGlaze Bi-Folding Doors
Being able to open your living space to the outdoors is a great way to cool off in summer and enjoy uninterrupted garden views.
Thermally Efficient
Large areas of glazing don’t have to mean sacrificing comfort. High-performance glass and insulated aluminium frames help limit heat transfer.
Multi-Point Security
When closed, secure multi-point locking helps hold the individual door sections firmly within the frame.
Long-Term Durability
Aluminium combines strength with relatively low maintenance, making it well suited to large glazed openings.
Made to Measure
Your bi-folding doors can be designed around the dimensions of your opening, including the panel arrangement and configuration.
Choice of Colours
Choose a finish that complements, from understated neutrals and contemporary greys to darker shades
Built for all Weather
Aluminium frames, glazing and seals are designed to withstand changing weather conditions from season to season.
It’s all in the details
We can commence with designing and manufacturing your aluminium bi-folding doors once we know what configuration, coloured finish, glazing and hardware you want.
Coloured finishes that last
Give your bi-folding doors a finish that suits home architecture. Select from a broad selection of powder-coated colours alongside woodgrain-inspired finishes such as Walnut, Rosewood and Oak. Dual-colour options can also give the interior and exterior different finishes.
Doors rely on quality handles
The handle needs to work seamlessly with the way your bi-folding doors operate while completing their contemporary appearance. Depending on the configuration, you can choose from master, D-handle and intermediate handle options in a selection of styles and finishes.
A variety of arrangements
Every property presents a different opening, which is why bi-folding doors can be configured in a range of panel arrangements. Whether you’re working with a more compact opening or looking to span a much wider section of your home, the layout can be planned around your available space.

Common questions about bi-folding doors
Helpful answers before you decide.
Bi-folding doors can make a dramatic difference to a home, but choosing the right system involves considering the material, energy performance, security, configuration and maintenance. Here are some of the questions homeowners commonly ask.
1. How long does it take to install bi-fold doors?
Installing bi-fold doors can be a relatively straightforward process, but even when it is we would usually expect a bi-fold door installation to take a full working day. If there are complications or potential access difficulties for our team, then this could be longer.
2. What's the main difference between bi-fold doors and sliding doors?
The main difference between bi-fold and sliding doors is that a bi-fold door can fold effortlessly away into their bi-fold frames, creating a large opening that can really help you blend indoors and out with style.
3. Are bi-fold doors easy to operate?
A top-quality track is installed for the door leafs to glide elegantly along on quad rollers that ensure most people can open the doors with ease. These same quad rollers are also fitted with a small brush to keep the tracks free of debris.
4. What is the best material for bi-folding doors?
Aluminium is particularly well suited to bi-folding doors because it combines structural strength with relatively slim profiles. This allows you to accommodate large glazed panels while maintaining a clean appearance and a durable frame that requires little ongoing maintenance.
5. What security features do bi-folding doors have?
Security can be provided through multi-point locking systems designed to secure the individual door sections at several points around the frame. Strong aluminium construction, suitable glazing and quality hardware also contribute to the overall security of the completed installation.
6. Can I use bi-folding doors in a conservatory?
Yes. Aluminium bi-folding doors can work particularly well in conservatories and other glazed living spaces where you want to maximise the connection with the garden. Their folding operation can create a wide opening while preserving views and natural light when closed.
7. How much maintenance do bi-folding doors require?
Aluminium bi-folding doors are designed for straightforward upkeep. Cleaning the glass, frames and running tracks regularly will help maintain their appearance and operation, while occasional checks and care of the moving hardware can keep the system running smoothly.
8. How can I customise bi-folding doors?
There are several ways to personalise your bi-folding doors, including the number and arrangement of panels, frame colour, glazing and handles. You can also consider options such as dual-colour finishes to create a different appearance inside and outside.
