Bi-Fold Doors
Bi-Fold Doors to enhance your home with Wooden Luxury Doors
A bifold door can open up your living space. Enhancing both your home and your lifestyle, Wooden Luxury know how to create the perfect setting to bring the outdoors closer.
Bi-fold doors, also known as folding-sliding doors, slide open panels together. Our bifold doors are practical yet elegantly crafted. Positioned either inside or outside, these doors are authentically styled in traditional or contemporary designs.
Even in compact spaces, this style can help create the illusion of more space. This is because the slim frames and large expanses of glass draw the eye ahead of the room end and into the outdoor space. A bespoke internal bifold door with glass will improve your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Standard Size for a Bifold Door?
External bifold doors are wider than internal bifold doors, with not much difference in height. External bifold door standard sizes are usually 2090mm or 2100mm tall. This is only slighter taller than an internal design. Usually, the height of an internal bifold door is around 6.8 feet, or 2078mm. The width is generally more variable. This could be on average, between 700mm and 1000mm wide. A bespoke option, however, will look incredible and will work faultlessly. We develop the door to fit your home.
Which is Better – Bifold or Sliding Doors?
If you want to be able to fully open the doors to give the continuous transition from inside to outside, opt for bi-fold doors. This style brings the outside inside. If it is all about the view, then a sliding door might be the best choice. This design reduces the amount of frame and maximises glass sizes, making the most of the view. Sliding doors are the best for space-saving because they work within their existing framework. Bifolds are more versatile and often, more aesthetically pleasing.
Do Bifold Doors Leak?
Solid bi-fold doors do not leak if you take simple steps to protect against this and lengthen the life.
- Remove debris that collects in the running tracks
- Check for blockages in the drainage channel
- Use warm water and mild detergent to wipe the frames
- If you meet with resistance, do not force it
How Long do Bifold Doors Last?
Well maintained high-quality bifold doors last for many years. Wooden Luxury offer an eight-year guarantee as standard. This includes the sealed double-glazed units, paint work, craftsmanship and ironmongery.
Are Bifold Doors Safe?
Bifold doors are safe. Occasionally, thieves target conservatories. This is because they are often less secure than the rest of the house. The bifold doors probably have no impact on their decision. Bi-fold doors are commonly harder to break into than typical French doors or sliding doors. At Wooden Luxury, we assure security with a strong insurance rated locking mechanism. This features robust bolts, night laches, deadlocks and five lever anti snap euro cylinder sash locks.
Are Bifold Doors Energy Efficient?
If installed correctly and are of a good build quality, bifold doors are energy efficient. They are not as draughty as conventional patio doors. Bi-fold doors meet higher levels of thermal retention and energy efficiency. This means you will increase the energy productivity in your home, saving yourself money.
