We test bi-fold windows by assessing their structural integrity, durability under stress, and ease of operation. Tests also include checking for air and water tightness, thermal efficiency, and resistance to extreme weather conditions to ensure high performance and reliability.
For installing a bi-fold window, please follow the steps outlined below:
Measure and prepare the window opening, ensuring it's clean and level.
Secure the window frame into the opening, checking alignment carefully.
Attach the hardware components such as tracks and brackets.
Position and secure the bi-fold panels onto the hardware.
Make necessary adjustments to ensure panels fold smoothly and align correctly.
Apply sealant for weatherproofing and conduct a final inspection of the installation.
Bi-fold windows offer expansive views and enhanced natural light, maximize space through their folding mechanism, and improve access to outdoor areas, making them ideal for blending indoor and outdoor spaces.
Bi-fold windows are equipped with robust locking mechanisms, typically featuring multi-point locks that secure the sashes at several points, making them as secure as other window types.
Bi-fold windows are suitable for commercial properties, offering aesthetic appeal, functional versatility, and the ability to create an open, inviting atmosphere for businesses like cafes, restaurants, and retail spaces.
While bi-fold windows provide excellent ventilation and views, their performance in extreme climates depends on the quality of the installation and the materials used, such as double glazing and weather-stripping for better insulation.
Bi-fold windows come in various styles, materials, and finishes, allowing customization to fit different architectural designs. Options include different frame materials like aluminum, timber, and uPVC, and various glass types.
Bi-fold windows offer a fuller opening than sliding windows, creating an unobstructed view and seamless transition to outdoor spaces. However, they typically require more space to operate and may involve higher costs.
