Custom Aluminum Bifold & Folding Doors
Aluminium bifold doors open a broad passage by folding multiple connected panels toward a chosen stacking side. Opening direction, panel count and hinge geometry should be decided before fabrication, not after the frames arrive on site.
System selection
Connect the rooms you live between.
Our catalogue includes E68 and C80 folding systems. These use different documented profile, glazing and hardware combinations. The layout should show stacking direction, access leaf if required, sill type, floor conditions and any screen interface.
Layout before fabrication
Set access leaves, panel count and inward or outward operation in the drawings.
Integrated sill detail
Coordinate the threshold, adjacent floors, weather exposure and screen interface.
Real sample details
Folding panels, hinges and stacking details.
The photographs show folding panels, hinge details and stack positions. Confirm panel order, folding direction, handing and sill for the selected E68 or C80 layout.
Technical reference
Bifold Door technical references.
E68 and C80 are separate catalogue families. Confirm the selected family, panel schedule, hardware and glazed build-up before applying its references.
| Named catalogue family | Parameter | Catalogue reference | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| E68 Folding Door | wall thickness | 1.6 mm | Series technical reference; request the current approved datasheet |
| E68 Folding Door | glass example | 5 + 20A + 5 mm | Series technical reference; request the current approved datasheet |
| C80 Folding Door | wall thickness | 2.0 mm | Series technical reference; request the current approved datasheet |
| C80 Folding Door | thermal break dimension | 14.8 mm | Series technical reference; request the current approved datasheet |
| C80 Folding Door | glass example | 5 + 18A + 5 mm | Series technical reference; request the current approved datasheet |
The folding-door photographs do not establish a rating. Request evidence for the selected E68 or C80 layout, size, glazing and hardware.
Applications
Where a folding opening can help
Patios and terraces
Villa living spaces
Hospitality and restaurant openings
For a folding-door package, show panel count, fold direction, stack side, access leaf, screen and threshold on the opening schedule.
Technical FAQ
Questions about panel stacking and sills
What information is needed to quote a bifold door?
Provide overall width and height, panel count, inward or outward fold, stacking side, finish, glazing, threshold and delivery destination.
Are E68 and C80 specifications interchangeable?
No. The two catalogue families have separate wall thickness, glass and thermal-break references.
Can I specify a traffic or access leaf?
Discuss daily access needs with the panel schedule. Compatibility depends on the selected folding layout and hardware.
How should a level threshold be reviewed?
Send the floor section and weather exposure so the sill, drainage and opening layout can be coordinated.

Who this system is for
Homes, hospitality spaces and renovation projects seeking a wide opening with folding panel stacks.
How to select
Set panel count, folding direction, stack side, traffic leaf, sill and weather exposure before choosing the system.
Typical options
Selected folding-door series may differ in wall thickness, thermal break, glass, hinges, rollers, handles and finish.
What to send for RFQ
Send the opening size, panel sequence, stacking direction, threshold condition, glass preference and destination.
Compliance and documentation notes
A small folding window is not evidence for a full-height bifold door; confirm the exact series and assembly documentation.
