Bi-Folding Doors, also known as ‘bi-fold doors’ and ‘glass sliding doors’ are a type of door that slides open while its panels fold up nearly entirely to provide you with a wide opening of the outside. Traditionally used for doors leading out to the garden or out of a conservatory, these doors are fantastic for home extensions as they open up a room completely.
