Bi-Fold Doors in Newcastle

Bi-Fold Doors in Newcastle, booked ahead as a planned project.

What we do in Newcastle

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 Newcastle, 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 Byker, Eldon Square, Fenham and Gateshead Quays.

Newcastle is a long way from our Midlands base, so work there is booked as a planned project and fitted in as few trips as possible.

Shopping streets and planning in Newcastle

For repairs or emergencies, a North East firm will reach you much faster than we can. For a new front planned in advance, we offer a single team that handles drawings, consents and fitting.

Grainger Town, the heart of the city centre, is built from classical stone streets laid out in the 1830s, and many of its buildings are listed. Grey Street, Grainger Street and Clayton Street are protected, and new shopfronts there are expected to suit the original stonework, with traditional proportions and discreet signs.

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.

From first call to finished job

The steps for a bi-fold doors job, in the order they happen.

1

Your idea

Tell us how wide the front is, how you trade and whether you want to fold one way or both.

2

Check the structure

We measure, check the beam above and the floor below, and look at drainage outside.

3

Panel layout and price

You get a drawing showing the number of panels and fold direction, with a fixed price.

4

Fit

The old front is removed and the bi-fold system installed, glazed and adjusted.

5

Show and tell

We show staff the right order to fold and lock the panels, which keeps the hinges from being strained.

Bi-fold door prices

The number of panels and the width are the main factors. These are typical ranges for commercial fronts.

Three panels, up to 3 m£3,000 – £5,500
Five panels, up to 5 m£5,500 – £9,000
Seven or more panels, 7 m and up£8,000 – £15,000
Built-in traffic door, extra£800 – £1,500

Prices are before VAT. We confirm the exact figure in writing after the survey.

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.
