Energy Efficient

As energy bills continue to soar, being able to provide homeowners with the best in energy efficient double glazing is paramount. Trade Windows Wales aluminium bifold doors can reach U-values as low as 1.1 W/m²K and come with impressive modern double glazing that retains heat for maximised comfort.

The aluminium frames and profile also contain intelligently designed polyamide thermal breaks to ensure that they trap heat better than typical solid aluminium could. Advancing a home’s energy efficiency can lead to reduced energy bills, a better carbon footprint, and, of course, a more relaxing and regulated internal temperature for the homeowner throughout the year.

Secure Design

One of the first things that homeowners will look for when upgrading their property is security. Aluminium bifold doors also offer this benefit in spades. Aluminium is one of the toughest and most robust materials used in door manufacturing on the market. It can take sudden blows and harsh weather conditions without buckling or cracking.

The Cortizo bifold door has been rigorously tested to surpass PAS24 requirements, making it a safe and secure system that homeowners and tradespeople alike can rely on.

Slim Sightlines

Our Cortizo bifold doors’ aluminium is sturdy yet sleek. Your customers can benefit from impressively slim sightlines while not sacrificing any security or durability. A slimmer frame can lead to a lighter overall set of bifold aluminium doors, making them easier for older individuals to use. Additionally, a minimalist design allows for more space for thick double glazing, further enhancing the thermal performance of the doors while also creating gorgeous, uninterrupted views.

These design benefits extend even further as a clearer view also allows for more natural light to flood through the doors and into the home.

Low Maintenance Materials

UK aluminium bifold doors need to be able to stand up to heavy rainfall and consistent winds. With the Cortizo door system, all your installers can be a cinch. Aluminium is a lightweight yet strong material that can easily resist rusting, making it the optimal material choice for long-lasting bifold doors.

While wooden bifold doors will eventually need to be replaced due to rot, frame warping, or paint fading and chipping, aluminium can maintain its shape even after years of use. Plus, the RAL colour finishes we use are designed to last for decades without fading or scratching. All the homeowner needs to do to keep these doors looking fresh is wipe them clean with a new cloth and soap. No need for bleach, harsh chemicals, or repainting after long exposure. Come rain or shine, these doors can offer peak performance years after initial installation.

No Swing Arc

An aluminium bifold door opens and closes via a concertina principle, meaning it folds into itself rather than swinging open on an arc like a traditional hinged door. One of the major benefits of this design is that aluminium bifolding doors can allow for more space within a property, either for decoration, foot traffic, or anything the homeowner desires.

Widely Customisable

At Trade Windows Wales, our Cortizo bifold doors can be customised to suit a variety of building aesthetics. Our range of vibrant and long-lasting RAL colours can help the aluminium frames blend in seamlessly with existing windows and doors.

We also provide a range of hardware colours and sizes to fit within any project, big or small, while also letting you give that perfect finishing touch to your customers. There are also dual colourways available for those jobs that require a separate internal and external colour.
