Bi-fold Doors
in Cumbernauld,
daylight along the whole wall.

It turns on the width of the opening and therefore the panel count, on aluminium against uPVC, and on the glass you choose. Forming or widening an opening adds to the figure and the surveyor prices that in rather than sending you off to find a builder. The survey costs nothing and the quote puts you under no obligation. Various deposit options are available.

Usually it can, though the construction varies a lot across Cumbernauld and the surveyor will want to see what is actually there before promising a width. A lintel sized to the span and proper temporary support are the essentials, and both are covered in the same contract as the doors.

Panels normally run between about 600mm and 1000mm wide, so a three metre opening tends to work as three or four. The surveyor measures the true structural opening, then sets out which way the stack should fold and where the traffic door is most useful day to day.

Not when they are specified properly. The aluminium sets we fit are thermally broken, with an insulating barrier running through the frame instead of bare metal front to back, and the units are energy rated with a warm-edge spacer. uPVC holds heat slightly better again and costs less.

Yes, and it is worth doing where the paving runs straight out. A flush threshold needs the drainage worked out at survey stage, because the water has to be taken somewhere. Where the levels will not allow it, a low weathered upstand is the sensible alternative.

The doors go in over 1 to 2 days. If an opening is being formed or widened, the structural days come on top and the surveyor explains the sequence beforehand, so you know how long the back of the house is open.

Multipoint locking on the traffic door, shootbolts from the folding panels into the head and the cill, and laminated glass where you want more. The hardware gets specified at the survey, and it is worth flagging if the doors sit somewhere out of sight from the street.

Aluminium gives the slimmest frames, the widest colour range and more glass per panel. uPVC is cheaper and marginally warmer. On a narrower opening the sightline difference is smaller than most people expect, and the surveyor will tell you so rather than upsell.
