INSTALLER OF DOUBLE GLAZING, ALUMINIUM BI-FOLDING DOORS THROUGHOUT DERBYSHIRE
Visual Appeal
There are many benefits to installing bi folding doors in your Derbyshire home. These sliding doors are often associated with stylish modern residences, but in reality, they can be fitted to any building and still look great.
Hive Architectural provides a range of styles and designs to suit any household. We offer a choice of standard and non-standard colour options, arranged into 9 unique palettes, each featuring 10 shades on a particular theme. These include anthracite grey, metallic, woodgrain, dual colour and the Smart’s unique Sensations range of textured finishes.
Aluminium bi folding doors are an increasingly popular seller, due to their strong, light and durable construction. However, wooden bifold doors with timber frames are available if you’re interested in a more classic finish. These generally require more maintenance and may need to be strengthened with an aluminium core.
Diverse Application
Since bifolds can be made with different configurations of panels, they are incredibly versatile and adaptable to different environments. You can install doors from 2 panels upwards in most sites, including corners and bay windows.
The sashes can be designed to fold internally or externally depending on the amount of space you have. They can be folded to one side to create a single folding door, or split in the middle to create a double folding door. A ‘traffic door’ can also be inserted, giving you easy access in or out, without opening and closing several panels.
Highly Secure
Visofold bi-folding doors are secured with multi-point lock mechanisms on the main opening sashes, and shoot-bolt locking on floating mullions. They are made to enhance your security, protecting your residence from theft. Blinds for bi-folds are another way to bolster your privacy.
Bifold doors avoid the trip hazard of raised tracks that is often a problem with traditional patio doors. Bifolds are installed flush with the floor; will stack neatly when opened; and can be fitted with other safety features, such as child-proofing, to prevent accidents.
Thermally Efficient
All our bi-folds feature double glazing, or even triple glazing. A polyamide thermal break in the glass further improves the overall U-Value of the structure. Thermal efficiency will be increased, meaning that warm air will be trapped inside in the colder months, keeping the living space at a comfortable temperature year round and saving you money on heating bills.
EPDM high quality gaskets, UPVC doors and weather brushes also contribute to the weather-proofing and durability of our Visofold doors.
Hive Architectural caters to both commercial and private clients in Derbyshire. In the past, our quality aluminium bi folding doors have been installed in bars, cafés and restaurants; to allow open access to a garden or terrace area in the summer months, or to showcase a wonderful view at colder times of year.
Internal and External Aluminium Bi-fold Doors
The installation of bifold doors is not restricted to the external walls of your home in Derbyshire. If you have an internal entryway where you would like to explore the option of a bi-folding door, Hive Architectural can offer a bespoke service that will tailor your door to your property.
Two-Panel Bi-fold Doors Derbyshire.
Traditionally, two-panel doors involve a static support panel and an access doors that swings open on hinges. With a two-panel bifold door, your entryway can be twice the size, since both door panes will slide aside to create an opening. The bi-fold door panes will both slide in one direction; either to the left, or to the right.
Multi-Panelled Bi-fold Doors Derbyshire.
For our Derby homeowners, Hive Architectural fabricates bifold doors with up to 7 panels hinged togther. The size of the space you’d like the doors to be installed in, and the ways in which you would like to enter and exit through them, will dictate how many panels are suitable for you. These aluminium doors can replace an entire wall, bringing a contemporary style to your living space.
Opening options for these doors include:
All door panels slide to the left
All panels slide to the right
Panels split in the middle so that the doors fold in both directions
The majority of panels slide in the same direction and an end panel is hinged as a traffic door, which you can use for convenience, without sliding all the panels back
Two panels swing open like traditional French doors while the others slide to the side

Step 2: The cleats of the door are inserted, and the doors are crimped in each corner
Step 3: During assembly, the e-gasket and hinges are inserted
Step 4: Next, the slave gearbox, key locking system and handles are added
Step 5: The barrel and locks are tested and screwed into place
