Bi-Fold Doors in Birmingham

Bi-Fold Doors for premises across Birmingham, a short drive from our base in Exhall.

What we do in Birmingham

On a warm day, a front that folds right back pulls people in off the pavement. We fit commercial bi-fold systems for cafés, bars and restaurants in Birmingham, with a built-in traffic door for everyday use.

During the survey we check the beam above and the drainage below, because the panels hang from the top track and need a level, well-drained threshold. Areas we cover include Bournville, Broad Street, Bullring and Digbeth.

Birmingham is one of our home areas, a short drive from the yard in Exhall, so surveys, fitting days and follow-up visits are easy to arrange.

Shopping streets and planning in Birmingham

For emergencies, such as a smashed window or a shutter stuck open overnight, Birmingham is one of the areas where we can usually reach you quickly. Call the emergency line and we will tell you an honest arrival time.

The city's high streets are a mix of Victorian parades, 1960s precincts and new developments. Soho Road in Handsworth, Stratford Road, Ladypool Road and Alum Rock Road are lined with busy independent shops where the front and shutter take a battering every day. We see a lot of worn springs, bent laths and dropped doors on these streets, and many fronts that are better repaired than replaced.

What you get from us

The same standard on every bi-fold doors job, whichever town it is in.

The whole front opens

Panels stack to the side, so most of the width becomes an open entrance on warm days.

A normal door for every day

A built-in traffic door means you only fold the front when you want to.

Warm in winter

Thermally broken frames and double glazing keep the front from becoming a cold spot when closed.

Easy to step through

Low thresholds suit wheelchairs and buggies, and are detailed so rain still drains away outside.

Questions people ask about bi-fold doors

It depends on the width and the panel size. Most shopfronts use three to seven panels. Wider fronts can split into two sets that fold to each side.

Usually, yes, because the front will look different. Listed buildings and conservation areas also need extra consents. We help with drawings for the application.

Yes. Each panel locks into the next and into the frame top and bottom. Laminated glass and an external shutter add more protection.

Sweep and wipe the bottom track weekly so grit does not wear the rollers, and have the system adjusted once a year.
