Transform your living space with aluminium bifold patio doors
Aluminium bifold doors slide on tracks at the top and bottom, opening in a concertina to fold neatly to one side of the opening. When they’re open, it feels like you’ve removed a wall to create a seamless transition between your home and garden. Even on the dull days when you have the doors closed your room feels flooded with light. They are double glazed, offering fantastic thermal insulation.
All of our aluminium bifold doors are made to measure and come fitted with multipoint locking and a 3-star cylinder lock on the primary door for added security.
What are bifold doors?
Sometimes called concertina or folding doors, bifold doors have several tall glass panels that fold up and slide to one side of the door opening. Aluminium Bifold doors are often used to connect a room to an outdoor area and are great for providing a wide view of your garden and outside space.
Bifold door style options
Safestyle bi fold doors come with plenty of options. Opt for either an even number of panels or an odd number, as well as whether you want them to open right to left, or left to right. You might also want a primary door that you can open independently of the other panels.
- Even number of bifold panels; 2, 4 or 6 panels. For that real wow factor, choose 6 panels that open in the middle and fold away at both ends.
- Odd number of bifold panels; 3, 5 or 7 panels. A very popular option, where one door acts as the primary.

Bifold Door FAQs
Choosing new bi folding doors can be a tough decision, but don't worry, at Safestyle we're here to help! We've answered some of the most common questions we get asked which you may find useful.
How much bifold doors cost depends on a lot of factors. This includes how large you need the panels and how large the opening is. The number of panels you choose is also a factor, as is whether you opt for a primary door or not. The colour can also play a part, as can the door furniture you choose. At Safestyle, we don’t believe in one size fits all, so when you get a price through us, its tailored to you, and if you choose us your door is made to measure and expertly fitted by or experienced installers.
More often than not you won’t need planning permission for bifold doors. You will only need it if your house is in a conservation area or is a listed building. Check your local authority website or contact them directly to find out what rules your home falls under, if any.
Bifold doors can potentially increase the value of your home. A sought-after addition for many, bifold doors bring in more natural light and enhance the look of any space they’re in. This can really increase the appeal of your property to a prospective buyer, if you do it right.
The most popular choice for aluminium bifold doors is anthracite grey. This makes them look modern and sleek without looking too harsh – which can happen with darker shades like jet black. However, you might want to go with a bold choice to really stand out, in which case you should choose from one of the many RAL colours we offer with our folding doors.
