Advantages Of Aluminium Bi Folding Doors October 26, 2011 at 4:12 pm

 

Aluminium Bi Folding Doors From Colourline

What is wrong with Aluminium Bi Folding Doors you may ask.  For years, some would say that choosing aluminium instead of PVC for your windows and doors would be disastrous. Many quite rightly felt that they were only available in silver, had to be set into a high maintenance hardwood sub-frame and, above all else, were prone to huge condensation issues. That was then – this is now!

Hi Tech Aluminium Bi Folding Doors

Aluminium Bi Folding DoorsAluminium Bi Folding Doors and windows have progressed in leaps and bounds in recent years and, with the use of modern technology, have eliminated all the problems that were once associated with aluminium.

The greatest improvement to aluminium windows and doors has to be the thermal performance.  By incorporating the latest thermal barriers, insulation and glazing products, Colourline’s range of aluminium bi folding doors not only meet but can greatly exceed current building regulations. This alleviates the problem of condensation which used to be such a problem.

Our Aluminium Bi Folding Doors are set into an aluminium frame which means that yearly repainting is a thing of the past.  Thorough regular cleaning will keep them looking fresh and clean. As for colour – you really are spoilt for choice.  Aluminium is now available in a range of over 200 RAL shades and gloss finishes – not just silver!  Dual colours can also be achieved so, if you want white inside and a colour outside – not a problem. And, for the more adventurous among us, there are some stunning sparkle and textured colours and finishes available.

The other major advantage that aluminium has over PVC is the slim lines of the profiles available – this means that sight lines and frames are slimmer allowing you a clearer view. PVC windows and doors often appear bulky in comparison and sometimes seem to have more frame than window cutting light out of your home.

Aluminium Bi Folding Doors  Every Time

So, if you’re still under the impression that aluminium windows and doors are a problem – think again!  There really is no question that aluminium is the professional’s choice and that PVC windows and doors no longer hold any advantage – so what is there to think about?   Take a look at our Aluminium Bi Folding Doors and Windows.

A National Home Improvement Show Thank You!

Colourline at The National Home Improvement Show“The response to our stand at the National Home Improvement Show was very positive,” says Martin James, Director at Colourline. “Everyone that came to see us was very enthusiastic about our products and was impressed with the ease of operation of both the bi folding and the sliding doors. The best way to understand how they work is to have a go – that’s what we encouraged and that’s what our visitors did.”

“We were all kept extremely busy over the course of the weekend and I’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone that helped build and staff the stand. Without their dedication and hard work we would not have achieved as much as we did,” continues Martin.

“We now have the task of supplying all the quotes that were requested, as well as following these up with some help and advice. Most have been sent but, we do still have a few to process. So if you haven’t heard from us yet, you will – thank you for your patience.”

Here’s To Next Years National Home Improvement Show

So, now all the hard work’s over – would we do it all again? “Yes, we would,” says Martin. “It gives us a fantastic opportunity to meet our clients face to face and it also allows us to see just what people think of the products. Going on the feedback we received at the National Home Improvement Show, we’ve got the products right. We offer high quality aluminium bi folding doors and aluminium sliding doors with one of the slimmest sightlines and lowest u-value on the UK market.  So here’s to next year.  Thank You for your continued support.”

They are completely flexible and can be fully or partially opened depending on your individual requirements. In addition, by utilising the threshold options available, the transition from inside to outside can be flawless making your garden an integral part of your home.

“Colourline have installed aluminium bi folding doors into both traditional and modern properties and they work exceptionally well in both,” says Steve Prudence, Production Manager. “Our customers are always impressed with the way they complement their homes and the amount of natural light let into the property. We’ve also seen a property where aluminium bi folding doors have been used to create a linking courtyard between an old converted barn and a modern extension – a stunning result was achieved which illustrated the tremendous versatility of the doors.”

Saving You Money With Bi Folding Doors

As well as allowing you to make stunning improvements to your home, Colourline’s range of bi folding doors will help to increase your fuel efficiency. We all have to meet the Government’s building regulations when replacing windows and doors. Ours not only meet but substantially exceed these; helping you save money on your fuel bills by keeping more of your heat inside your home. Proving once again that modern and traditional can be combined to achieve the best of both worlds.

Colour choices in abundance with Colourline.  Colourline are specialist manufacturers of aluminium bi folding and sliding doors but, did you know, that our doors and windows are available in over 200 different shades and gloss finishes.  Colour choices to suite everyone.

 Grey Is The Colour Colour Choices

Here at Colourline we’ve seen a huge increase in the number of grey doors and windows that we’re producing – so much so, that certain shades are becoming difficult to get hold of.  At the moment there is a nationwide shortage of Anthracite Grey (RAL 7016).  Demand is currently outstripping manufacturing capacity.  So with this in mind, if you’ve got your heart set on Anthracite Grey – our advice would be to order soon.

Spoilt For Colour Choices

However, if your undecided with your colour choices, or if you haven’t made a firm decision yet rest assured you will be spoilt for choice.  All our aluminium bi folding and sliding doors and windows come in a choice of over 200 different RAL colours.  They range from the more traditional greys, browns and reds through to bright yellows, oranges and greens. 

“Just recently, we’ve made doors in unusual colours,” says Martin James, Director at Colourline.  “Our clients are moving away from the more traditional grey and white and using shades that compliment their homes and their personalities.  It’s great for us and shows just how much you can personalise your windows and doors.  My favourite to date has got to be a Special FX paint that we bought in that had a sparkle two-tone effect – fantastic!”

“But let’s not forget the traditionalists among us! Personal choice is what it’s all about.  If you have an idea then we have the colour.  Take a look at the RAL chart on the website and you’ll see that there really are colour choices to suit everyone and every home. “

Colourline Aluminium ASS50 Sliding Patio Door

Colourline have recently launched the new ASS50 Sliding Patio Door which allows you to easily open up your living space and let the outside in.

ASS50 Sliding Patio Door,   Smooth And Safe

The lift and slide system makes opening and closing simple and very quiet – the ASS50 Sliding Patio Door  really is a smooth operator!  But, as well as smooth, by incorporating a unique automatic stop device safety has also been covered.  The device stops anyone from accidentally slamming the slider shut reducing the risk of catching fingers – an essential consideration especially with children in the house.

ASS50 Sliding Patio Door, Size Does Matter

One of the fantastic benefits of the ASS50 Sliding Patio Door is the size of panels that can be made. Each leaf can weigh up to 300 kg – meaning that it is possible to make very large panels to create stunning glass walls.  But even with this amount of weight the system operates effortlessly due to high quality ball bearing roller system that the doors slide on.  And, because the panels open parallel to the static pane and not into the room, the ASS50 Sliding Patio Door provides the perfect space saving solution for your home.
