Restore the effortless glide
Bifold doors have grown in popularity and although they are a stunning addition to any home, their complex multi-panel design means that perfect alignment and operation is essential for proper function and longevity.
Bifold doors are heavy, which means that the folding leaves can shift or ‘drop’ over time, which can lead to panels dragging on the bottom track and gaps in the seals. This can also have knock-on effects elsewhere, with misalignment to locks and other parts of the mechanism. We specialise in precision realignment of bifolding door systems, to ensure that each panel closes smoothly.
We provide expert repair and replacement for all critical components, including heavy-duty carrier rollers, top guides, hinges, handles and locks. If your door is shuddering as it moves, or feels heavier than normal when you operate it, that’s usually a sign that the rollers have worn down or the track has become misaligned. We recommend servicing these parts early, as soon as these signs start to show, so that we can prevent long-term damage and keep your bifold doors gliding effortlessly for years to come.
