We have resumed operations while maintaining govenment guide lines on social distancing and safety. Our customer service staff and sales estimators are continuing to work from home to ensure your new or existing project gets the attention it requires. The folding sliding door company fitted bifold triple glazed glass edge windows to my kitchen extension four years ago, in which I was very pleased with the quality. About four months ago I noticed the glass misting up in two. About four months ago I noticed the glass misting up in two out of three panes!

ODL'S BUILT-IN BLINDS provide unprecedented, industry-leading performance quality and durability. Ideal for bi-fold doors, bi-fold windows, casement windows and fixed panels. The Integral Blinds are sealed between glass panels, so the blinds stay clean and free of damage from kids, pets, and anything else that might come into contact with your door glass. No dusting, no tangled or dangling cords, no crimping or denting and because they're protected between glass they retain their 'like new' look over time and with repeated use.
Developed by FSDC in 2003 this 70mm 2 system is constructed from aluminium reinforced PVCu profile. We use only the finest profiles available with attributes for strength and having fantastic thermal values. The 70mm 2 PVCu frame is one of the most widely used materials in the window and door industry and with good reason. The thermal efficiency of PVCu far surpasses many other materials meaning your home will stay the right temperature and keep your heating and cooling bills low. All of our aluminium products are powder coated which exceeds the current industry standard.

All our engineered and aluminium re-enforced hardwood systems are expertly crafted by our fully trained staff, and all our profiles are engineered to give extra strength and to reduce expansion and warping. Engineered lamination is the technique of manufacturing a material in multiple layers, so that the composite material achieves improved strength, stability and sound insulation. The wood frames are dipped into an anti-rot, and anti-fungal treatment to protect the frames from both the harsh rays of the sun and water ingress.
When choosing bi-folds there are two terms you will come across: 'top hung' and 'bottom rolling'. This refers to the way the weight of the door is supported. Advice varies on which is best but bear in mind that top-hung doors conceal the bulk of the operating mechanisms in the frame head, plus dirt and debris are less likely to become lodged in the top track, unlike the bottom track, where it can affect the running operation. On the downside, top-running systems do require a sufficiently strong lintel or beam above the opening to take the weight of the doors.
Glass has a significant effect on the heat your house loses at night, the heat it gains during the day and noise levels from outside. Glass helps to determine the level of comfort, security and privacy in your home. No matter where your site is located or the positioning of the windows within a project, The Folding Sliding Door Company provides you with many glass solutions. Low-E (K) coating on the inside, gives the glass better thermal properties and allows most natural light to enter freely but reflects a significant portion of short-wave heat energy.
Security is one of our main concerns, that is why the security and integrity of our doors have been tested to destruction in UKAS approved testing laboratories. During these tests our doors were hammered, rammed, pounded, pulled, pushed, lifted and crow barred by forces that equalled a 20 stone man trying to force entry.

Part of the Trinity Leeds development, a shopping and leisure centre in Leeds, England. It opened in March 2013 and was the only large scale shopping centre to open in the UK that year. Located in a prime position in a thriving city, and with a brief that was clear & distinctive. The Folding Sliding Door Company delivered a truly bespoke project to exacting standards. Lead Architect for the 'Tapped' modern alehouse and brewpub development was Andy Thornton who was delighted with the results. Choice of material was 70mm thermally broken Aluminium, an excellent choice for a commercial installation.
Our system has been tested at a UKAS accredited testing station and passed the PAS23 weather test to extreme weather conditions. Most systems on the market are weather tight, with high performance rubber seals and brush seals. However, there are some systems that have little or no seals at all. One crude but easy test is to close a folding door on to a sheet of paper and try to pull the paper out. If it pulls out easily there is not a watertight compression on the seals. EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer (M-class) rubber) gaskets are fitted as standard and used to seal the double glazed units into the panels and protect the door from water ingress.
