Trade aluminium bifold doors in Workington

Aluminium bifold doors for Workington jobs

The opening above a bifold carries the weight, so the lintel must be level and stiff enough. Check this with the builder before the doors arrive.

A traffic door is a single panel that opens like a normal door, so the set does not have to be folded back just to step outside.

• Two to seven panels, folding in or out
• Low or flush threshold options
• Toughened double or triple glazed units
• Top-hung or bottom-rolling running gear depending on system

Regulations for jobs in Workington

Replacement external doors in England should meet a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K under Approved Document L. Glass in doors and side panels below 1500mm is a critical location under Approved Document K, so it must break safely (toughened or laminated to BS EN 12600), be robust or in small panes, or be permanently protected. Doors into new homes also need to meet Approved Document Q for security, which is usually shown with PAS 24. Replacing a door that is more than half glazed is notifiable building work, self-certified through a competent person scheme or approved by building control.
