    What Are the Benefits of Steel Look Aluminium Bifold Doors?

    Curious about the advanced features of steel-look aluminium bifold doors? These doors offer seamless indoor-outdoor living, energy efficiency, and a stylish modern design. Learn more about their durable, weather-resistant properties, compliance with accessibility standards, and the simplicity of installation in our FAQ.

    Why are bifold doors going out of fashion?

    At Direct Trade Windows, we can assure you that bifold doors are not out of fashion. However, you might perceive them this way if you already have them in your home. This perception could arise due to their relatively older design, which might show signs of aging, such as uPVC cracking and twisting, or the potential rusting of internal door hardware due to water exposure. To update the look of your bifold doors and keep up with the current trends, consider adding black Georgian bars to achieve the popular deco look. This simple upgrade is relatively inexpensive and can instantly transform your interior space into a stylish and modern industrial look, making them a popular choice for new build homes.

    Are aluminium bifold doors more expensive than uPVC?

    At Direct Trade Windows, we believe both options have their merits. While aluminium bifold doors may have a higher initial cost and potentially require additional investment to match the thermal efficiency of uPVC, they offer superior aesthetics, durability, and are perfect for those seeking a premium choice with a slightly higher budget. Additionally, with the option for internal blinds, aluminium bifold doors provide added convenience and functionality for homeowners.

    Where do you offer your Steel Look Aluminium Bifold Doors?

    We're proud to offer our Steel Look Aluminium Bifold Doors across a wide range of locations in England, from the south coast all the way up to the northeast. Our service areas include:

    How good are aluminium bifold doors?

    Aluminium bifold doors boast exceptional strength and, when powder coated, can maintain their integrity for decades. Requiring minimal maintenance – primarily occasional cleaning – they outshine timber and uPVC counterparts in terms of resistance to warping caused by weather conditions. The inherent robustness of aluminium, making it a great alternative to traditional steel doors, allows for slimmer frames, providing a broader and more expansive view through the doors.

    What are the benefits of steel-look bifold doors?

    Steel-look bifold doors provide exceptional outdoor connectivity and effective ventilation. They seamlessly blend the indoors with the outdoors, offering a sleek and modern aesthetic while maintaining slim sightlines.

    What variations are available for steel-look bifold doors?

    Direct Trade Windows offers energy-efficient steel-look bifold doors from Cortizo with options of two, three, four, and six sashes. These doors provide excellent U-values due to an integrated polyamide thermal break.

    Ryan Flynn

    Superb company. Highly recommend them. Proper engineers for design and fitting. We changed spec due to some building changes and they were clear and responsive to queries and redesign. Really trustworthy group of people from sales to design to fitting. I would use them again without hesitation. Warm regards Daniel

    Daniel Champman

    The team delivered great sliding doors at a more competitive price than other suppliers. They responded to our changing development schedule without making it an issue and have provided great aftercare as well.

    Daniel

    We had been severely let down by a previous supplier, but when we turned to Direct Trade Windows for help, we hit the jackpot. Helping us to transform a residential development in Hersham, they supplied us with high-quality, ultra-slim Cortizo sliding doors, complete with the bespoke sliding options that we needed. Our requirements were very specific and not readily available on the market, but Direct Trade Windows really went the extra mile to help us out, coming through with quality products and excellent service. We will definitely be using their services again.

    Park Lane Developments

    Nothing but praise for this outfit. It was a pleasure to work with them. It was a nerve-wracking undertaking for us, the biggest single expense to fit three large window/french door combos in our extension, yet the team made it a relatively relaxing experience with their professionalism and good humour. Thank you all so much for everything you and the whole team have done to get from the initial sale (well done Hash!) to the fun visit we made to the workshop, to the design and its multiple iterations (thank you Taz!) and finally to the installation. Thoroughly recommended.
