FlowFold – a better way of living
Research has proved it, but even without the science, we all know that natural light is good for us. It improves our mood and makes us healthier. Add fresh air and an inspiring living space and you’re well on the way to life as it should be. Humans weren’t designed to be shut away in dark, little boxes and now we don’t need to be. We can live life, to the full, in beautiful, light-filled, open, airy homes.
FlowFold is a superbly engineered, aluminium bi-folding door, designed specifically for domestic use. With beautiful, floor-to-ceiling glass, rooms are transformed, gardens made more accessible, and entertaining more fun. Choose to open up an entire wall. Or, use FlowFold to replace a patio or French door. FlowFold is perfect for a pool-house, a garden office or a conservatory. Choose FlowFold for a balcony or even as an internal room divider. Let your imagine run riot: FlowFold can handle it.
Practical
FlowFold’s slim profiles are lightweight but very strong. They are finished using a tough, marine-quality, polyester powder coat, so they won’t corrode or oxidise. Smooth and easy to operate, the panes can be folded internally or externally. The doors are fully bespoke and configured exactly how you want them. If you just want to pop outside, that’s no problem with convenient, side or central, access doors. For unimpeded access there are low-thresholds and we also offer a rebated threshold for those more exposed areas where extra weather protection may be required.
Beautiful
FlowFold isn’t just a durable, hard-working door: it’s a good looking one too. Slim sightlines allow the maximum light into your home and offer a great view, but don’t forget to admire the superb finish and build quality of the FlowFold door itself. Lines are clean and uncluttered. Hardware perfectly complements the simple, understated elegance. Mitred corners and joints show a real craftsman’s.
FlowFold is available in a range of long-lasting colours, wood effects and textured finishes. We even offer a dual colour option, so that you can have a different finish indoors and outdoors.
Secure
From toughened glass to robust locking mechanisms, we’ve thought of everything when it comes to security. FlowFold’s access doors feature highly-secure, multi-point locks. The folding sashes are fitted, top and bottom, with shoot-bolt mechanisms and all panes are internally glazed. FlowFold is a fantastic door when it’s open, and it’s a safe, secure door when it’s closed.
Insulating
FlowFold protects your home from the weather without relying on ugly, black, rubber seals. High-quality, long-life EPDM gaskets keep the rain on the outside and weather-brushes prevent draughts. The aluminium sections are multi-chambered and include a polyamide thermal break to reduce heat loss. We use 28mm, sealed-unit, double glazing made with advanced, low-emissivity glass that can help to improve your home’s passive solar gain.
FlowFold doors are weather resistant to BS 6375 Part 1 and fully compliant with Document L of the building regulations.
The environment
Our aluminium sections are produced and powder coated in the UK. We use a supplier with fantastic green credentials and a comprehensive environmental management system. Waste is kept to a minimum, recycling is a key policy and energy consumption is strictly controlled.
Once your doors are fabricated and installed, they will go on looking after the environment by insulating your home and reducing your carbon emissions. You’ll never need to paint them and they won’t rot, so there’s no chemicals involved in their maintenance.
We expect that your FlowFold door will be with you for decades, but don’t forget that the aluminium sections can be recycled when the time, eventually, comes to say goodbye!
