Discover all the advantages of modern folding doors!

 Why should you choose folding doors?

Folding doors are an innovative solution that has revolutionised interior design. Their unique design with several sliding panels allows for smooth opening and closing, reminiscent of how a concertina is played. Because the door moves on guides along a wall, it does not take up valuable space, as is the case with traditional doors – which need more room to fully open. This solution is particularly practical in the case of apartments with unconventional floor plans and houses in which one room serves several different functions.

Even though folding doors used to be popular in the 80s and 90s, today they are making a comeback with a modern twist: they are more durable and lightweight, look better and fit in with today’s trends. They are also made of different materials. An example of a modern take on this product are aluminum folding doors, which combine elegant design with functionality.

They are resistant to mechanical damage and changing weather conditions, which makes them perfect for merging the interior with the garden. Moreover, these types of aluminum solutions offer a wide range of finishes and colours, meaning they can easily fit in with different architectural styles.

Thanks to modern technologies, maintenance comes down to cleaning the guides every once in a while. As a result, these doors can serve you for many years.

What’s the best place for folding doors?

Due to the characteristics and advantages described above, folding doors work well in many places. Let’s name some of them.

Single-family houses: the entrance to the terrace, balcony or garden

Folding doors slide to the side, creating a wide passage that makes it possible for the interior of the house to be freely merged with the outdoors. This gives members of the household direct access to fresh air and more natural light. This solution is perfect when you prioritise good ventilation and want to merge the interior with the balcony, terrace or veranda.

Folding doors are ideal for marking out specific zones in your house – for example, to separate the living room from the kitchen or the bedroom from the wardrobe. They allow you to make flexible changes in the floor plan without the need for using traditional door leaves. Such doors are lightweight and simple-to-use, which is why they take the interior to the next level – it becomes brighter, more spacious and eye-catching.

Restaurants and cafes: glass walls that open up to the outdoors

Folding doors are also a great solution for commercial premises such as restaurants, cafés or bars, where it is important to merge the interior with outdoor space. As opposed to fixed glazing, which limits the possibility for the premises to open up to the outside, sliding doors make it possible to create a wide passage that merges the room with a terrace or garden.
