Adding contemporary and attractive bi-fold doors to your garden room’s design can add value and comfort to your new space.

When you buy a garden room from Garden Room Sanctuary, we offer bi-fold doors and window as an optional extra for a nominal price.

They can be opened wide to provide spectacular views of your garden and to maximise space.

Bi-folding doors and windows are an ideal upgrade for customers who want their garden room to flow freely into an outdoor space, creating the perfect atmosphere for entertaining and relaxing in the summer.

What are bi-fold doors?

Bi-fold doors are attractive, practical and highly sought after feature in modern architecture and design.

Rather than swinging open like a traditional door, bi-fold doors are made from a series of panels that can slide open and fold up like a concertina in one effortless motion.

The result is that the open door is neatly folded away to provide a full, clear view of what is beyond.

Bi-fold doors are customisable, and the number of panels yours have depends on your requirements and preference.

It is possible to use bi-fold doors to open up an entire entranceway.

They are often confused with sliding doors, but the two are quite different; sliding doors do not fold like bi-fold ones and so are incapable of opening up space as much.

Bi-fold doors are ideal for garden rooms because they allow you to effectively remove the barrier between your garden room and an outside space during fine weather. It provides spectacular views, allowing you to enjoy the full benefit of both your garden room and your garden while creating the perfect space for entertaining.

Benefits of bi-fold doors

Adding bi-fold doors to your garden room can cost a little more than traditional or sliding doors, but the value they add is worth the investment.

Here are just a few of the reasons why so many people now opt to add bi-fold doors to their garden room:

Bi-fold doors are capable of not only adding value and functionality to your garden room but also providing stunning views of your outdoor space, giving your garden room the wow-factor.

Because of the way bi-fold doors fold away to remove a barrier between your garden room and outdoor space, they provide clear, unobstructed views and access to your garden.

It helps to create an attractive, contemporary and free-flowing design that is perfect for entertaining guests and enjoying your garden late into the evening during the summer.

Garden rooms are relatively small spaces, so you’ll want to consider design features that help maximise whatever space you have.

Opting for bi-fold doors over traditional doors will not only physically provide more space because they can be folded away, they also let in a lot of natural light to generate a light and airy atmosphere.

As well as physically requiring less space to operate, the way bi-fold doors open wide and fold away creates a free-flowing space between a garden room and your garden, creating the illusion of a larger space.

We aren’t blessed with the best weather here in the UK, and bi-fold doors can withstand unpredictable stormy and windy weather, making garden room windproof.

If left open, traditional doors can swing around in the wind, which can not only cause damage to your garden room but could also injure anyone close by, particularly young children.

Even when hooked back, a traditional door can rattle around a lot in high winds.

Bi-fold doors, however, will remain neatly and securely folded back on themselves and unaffected by high winds.

The panelled glass design of bi-fold doors allows you to let more natural light into your garden room.

Natural light is better for concentration if you plan to use your garden room for a hobby or for work. It can also help to make small spaces feel bigger and airier and are generally better for health and wellbeing.
