While every door has its advantages, there are a few reasons why we’d choose a bifold over anything else. Here’s three great reasons why.
Maximize the Clear Opening and Overhead Space
Bifold doors allow for a larger clear opening than many other door types, especially overhead doors. They can span the entire width of most buildings, which makes them a great choice for existing buildings where you need just a little more room. Bifold doors allow you to use more space inside your building without increasing the size of your building.
Hassle Free Door Maintenance
You don’t want to spend time on door maintenance when there is plenty of other jobs to do. Overhead doors have many moving parts that can fail – springs that need tensioning, panels that buckle and warp, and chains that need greasing. Sliding doors are prone to misalignment and simply become a hassle to use after a few years.
We eliminate that struggle with our low-maintenance bifold doors. Greaseless hinges, cables that don’t need to be adjusted, and minimal moving parts provide a hassle-free door maintenance experience.
Less Strain on the Building
Compared to a single-piece hydraulic door, a bifold door causes significantly less stress to the building. The hydraulic door acts as a lever, pulling the weight of the door away from the building. A bifold door with the same opening height is only half the distance from the building, and the strain on the building is significantly reduced.
