How Do Bifold Doors Enhance My Home?

 

Bifold doors can completely transform a space. It is therefore no wonder that they are such a popular choice for UK homeowners. Renowned for not only having an appealing appearance, but also because of their practical qualities because they fold outwards, bifold doors are sure to enhance any home. So let’s find out exactly what the benefits of bifold doors are and how your home can be improved with this clever and attractive installation.

 

Seamless Flow

Bifold doors work cleverly to bring the outside in. They allow seamless flow between the inside of your home and your garden, therefore creating a light and airy space. This ensures that people within your home can move at ease between the garden and inside of your property. It might be that you enjoy your bifold doors when closed, protecting you from the elements outside without feeling closed in. Or it might be that you enjoy them open as they fold out like a concertina, allowing your space to be filled with fresh air from outside. Either way, your home will be enhanced with bifold doors.

 

Safety

A bifold door will ensure that you feel secure in your home. Due to multipoint locking systems and an inline tracking system, intruders will be deterred. With a wide range of locks to choose from that are all near-impossible to remove, you can rest assured knowing that bifold doors have been designed and tested to ensure maximum security. For families with young children, there is also the option for childproof locks and gaskets. This means that small children won’t be subject to injuries, therefore stopping parents from worrying about trapped fingers.

 

Energy Efficiency

Because bifold doors trap natural heat on the inside of your property, they are incredibly energy efficient. The double glazing creates a thermal barrier which enhances heat retention, ensuring that the inside of your home is as warm and cosy as possible. For those who wish to improve the thermal efficiency of their home, triple glazing will provide even further benefits. Whether you opt for double or triple glazed bifold doors, they are both guaranteed to enhance your home’s thermal performance. Keeping heat in and the cold out means less reliance on your central heating, thus lowering your energy bills too. Reducing your carbon footprint means that as well as being energy efficient, bifold doors can have a positive impact on the environment too.  

 

Weather Protection

Tough weather is not a problem for bifold doors. This is largely what makes them so popular for UK homeowners. Constructed from durable materials including aluminium, glass and wood, bifold doors are guaranteed to protect you from adverse weather. Rain and winds will not penetrate your doors, with sunlight on those warm summer days also not causing an issue. Instead, your property will be kept comfortable no matter what the time of year is.

 

Practical

Cleverly designed to be as practical as possible, bifold doors do not impose on the space that you have. As they fold, the concertina effect means that the frames become compacted. This means that you can enjoy the free-flow of your inside and outside space without open door frames getting in the way. As well as this, bifold doors use a low threshold which allows the floor space between your home and garden to be seamless. Thresholds are consequently not a trip hazard and this also ensures ease when manoeuvring prams, toys or wheelchairs through the doors too. Finally, bifold doors are a great way to transform your space if you are looking to section off your house to create a study or office. With soundproofing and thermal qualities, bifold doors can help to cleverly reinvent the space you have in order for it to be even more practical.

 

Stylish

Bifold doors will undoubtedly enhance your home and make it even more stylish. Renowned for their modern appearance, bifold doors can uplift and transform any property. Whether you are looking to create something that blends or makes a statement, there are plenty of options to choose from. With a wide variety of styles and customisation choices, you can tailor your bifold doors to match your property. Created to use slim sightlines in order to boast uninterrupted views of your garden, bifold doors are an excellent choice if you are looking to add style to your home.

 

Market Value

Considered to be luxurious and modern, bifold doors will increase the market value of your property. Versatile and adaptable to any property, bifold doors are straightforward to fit and use. A superb way to introduce more light to your home and create a sleek finish, your bifold doors will live on to make the next owner of your home happy if and when you do come to sell your property on.
