Aluminum Swinging Doors
These easy-to-open doors weigh less than impact doors, making them ideal for light-duty applications where cost and aesthetic appeal are considerations. Aluminum sheeting doors have a reinforced spine for enhanced rigidity.
ABS Swinging Doors
Doors are made of ABS plastic to resist dents, gouges, and abrasions during normal use. Easy to open with minimal resistance.
Flexibility by Design
Each panel can move separately from each other. This means that you can move them to create great ventilation, create a bigger or smaller clear opening and also not have the inconvenience of making sure there is nothing in the way to stop them from opening.
Minimal
Due to the way the Door is engineered there is no surface mounted hinges, shootbolt or pull handles. All you have is a clean and elegant aesthetic. Not only that, the method in which the panel interlocks, make them far more secure than a traditional bifold door.
Options
Integral aluminium blinds are a great addition as they provide solar shading and privacy but also can be opened fully to enjoy the views. The aluminium blinds are available in a choice of 10 colours and in magnetic or solar operating system.
Secure
All of our Swing & Slide doors come with Multi-Point Locking as standard.
