Aluminium bifold doors are one of the most popular entrance door options across the UK. In recent years, their popularity has skyrocketed across the residential and commercial glazing sectors. In residential installations, they are often specified as replacement patio doors and part of new build home extensions. In the commercial sector, they are often used alongside sections of aluminium curtain walling in all sorts of commercial installations from offices to restaurants and retail buildings.
One of the main characteristics of aluminium bifold doors which appeals to consumers is their capacity for customisation. Aluminium bifold doors can be bespoke designed to meet almost any project specifications. You can choose their size, configuration, glazing, locking systems, and opening action. You can also choose from an almost endless variety of colours and finishes.

Stylish and understated, Anthracite Grey is the most popular bifold door colour across the residential and commercial sectors. Suitable for both contemporary and traditional installations, Anthracite Grey is the perfect compromise between white and black.
White aluminium bifolds are bright and clean, creating a fresh and revitalized look to any installation. Their neutral colour is also a great choice to match any architectural style.
You’ve heard the saying, ‘black goes with anything.’ Well, this is also true when it comes to bifold doors. Stately and tasteful, black aluminium bifold doors are popular in all types of installations.
Popular in period installations where original Crittal style windows were once installed. Aluminium bifold doors can be finished in a realistic metallic effect coating which tastefully recreates the heritage aesthetic.
A popular choice in barn conversions and rurally located properties. Cream bifolds are bright and attractive but more subtle than vivid white. They are often chosen for conservation area properties and look great on traditional stone clad building.

We are delighted with the windows, and have already been complimented by our neighbours on the upgrade.
Tyler and Paul were very professional and showed good initiative for the inevitable adjustments that needed to be made. They were particularly considerate of our house, it’s character and our pets! Please pass on our thanks and comments as appropriate.
We are delighted with the windows. As you know we were concerned that they would look different and more “clunky” but really you can’t tell the difference except that the new ones are not falling apart!!! The guys who did the fitting were also good. They were working in freezing fog, really cold but they carried on regardless, they were extremely tidy and cleared up after themselves.
I am delighted with the recent installation, it’s good to look out of clear windows. The work was carried out professionally by two excellent gentleman.
I will not hesitate to contact you when I am ready to replace others, also would certainly recommend you to others.
Really impressed with the customer service and professionalism from everyone at Techniglaze. Especially liked the follow up call after our doors were fitted to make sure we were happy. Would definitely recommend.
Excellent. This company really care about doing a great job. Roger and Keith have been very helpful and explaining things in detail that a lay person may not understand.
Excellent customer service, range of products and attention to detail. I honestly can’t rate them highly enough. They stepped in and came to the rescue after Salisbury glass cost us 8 months of time and 100k in increased material costs.
These guys have been great to us. Helped us out at short notice after we were badly let down by another supplier. We asked for several minor details that were not standard (e.g. different locking mechanisms), and they were flexible and open to ideas. We ended up also commissioning our front door from them; it is super sturdy and beautiful. Always courteous, professional, and good payment terms.
First class service for my window repair, with tricky access issues and a large, heavy glazed unit to install. Really glad I chose this company.
I was looking for a company that could deliver a bespoke pair of roof lights in the Alitherm system. Techniglaze offered the best price and worked with us to ensure the sizes were exactly right and conducted the sales process very professionally. The product is first class and we are exceptionally pleased with the service and product. I can highly recommend Techniglaze.
