Choosing your back doors from Bifold Doors UK
October 1, 2015
“We are specialists in door manufacturing from bifold doors to back doors.”

At Bifold Doors UK, we offer a wide range and styles of doors that can be custom made or standard size. But with such a vast choice of doors, how can you be sure you’re choosing the right type of back doors for your property and lifestyle?
Here is a bit more information about the two types of doors we recommend for use as back doors. Namely, patio doors and external bi-fold doors.

Patio Doors

Patio doors are undoubtedly the most common choice for use as back doors and are a popular way to connect your garden to your property. What’s more, patio doors with their high-proportion of glass will help gain a feeling of the outdoors inside your property.
The patio doors from Bifold Doors UK are of particularly high quality, manufactured from ethical and sustainable, FSC sourced, hard and soft woods, or aluminium if you prefer.

We usually recommend oak, idigbo or sapele for use in wooden patio doors but if you would like a different wood, perhaps to fit in with the existing style of the property, then let us know and we, no doubt, will be able to customize your quote.Â

External Bifold Doors

Bifold doors in their increasing popularity are being used more often for back doors. External bi-fold doors add a contemporary feel to the property, saving space in comparison to traditional patio doors, as well as offering the opportunity to feel closer to the outdoors.
The external bi-fold doors from Bifold Doors UK are durable, hardwearing and, ultimately, have a luxury aesthetic, making for high-quality back doors. They are also suitable for use in conservatory or orangery extensions since they don’t take up a lot space. In addition, because bi-fold doors are made of mostly glass, when used as back doors bi-fold doors allow a large proportion of light into the back of the property (depending on the amount of sunlight received at the back of the property, of course).

Although, at Bifold Doors UK we recommend external bi-fold doors and patio doors as use for back doors, there are indeed other types of doors you can use as back doors.
