Bi-fold doors are a stylish modern home improvement that not only adds a touch of luxury but also offers great benefits. These doors, whether open or closed, allow maximum sunlight into your home transforming it from a dark and dull room into a space that is full of light and life.
Light and Airy
Bi-fold doors are a popular choice for homes that want to create a seamless transition between their living space and outdoor alfresco area. Also known as concertina doors, they provide large expanses of glass and slim frames that maximize sunlight into your home to make it feel incredibly bright and airy.
The natural light that bi-fold doors allow into your home is not only aesthetically pleasing, but it can make your room appear larger and brighter. Moreover, it is proven that natural light has positive effects on your well-being and mood.
Bi-fold doors can also open up your living spaces to the outside, creating a sense of space and freedom for your family and entertaining guests. Aluminium bi-fold doors are a sleek option for contemporary homes, while timber-framed options can complement traditional homes.
Aesthetically Pleasing
Bi-fold doors are a popular choice for homeowners who wish to connect their living spaces with a view of the outdoors. They comprise a series of sleek panels that slide to one side in a stacking motion when opened, allowing you to create an indoor/outdoor setting for dining, entertaining, and relaxing.
Unlike conventional sliding doors, they can be installed into unconventional spaces without requiring a structural opening, and are ideal for corner properties. Homemade Abode used wooden trim pieces in a geometric pattern to give their white bi-fold doors an elegant makeover.
You can also customize a colonial house design with different color doors on either side to match your interior design scheme. This is possible with Origin bi-folds, which are available in a range of versatile customizable designs that suit contemporary homes
