    Looking to open up space between rooms, cordon a room for additional privacy or when it’s not in use, or open up space between the indoor and outdoors for your customers to enjoy? A bifold door system, or folding door, is a great solution for a wide variety of commercial applications. 

    Our commercial bifold door systems will work where a pocketed or sliding door system will not. This allows you to still create a larger opening and connect areas of your business.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

     

    Sliding or Folding - which is better?
    The type of moving glass wall you choose for your business depends in part on the effect you want to achieve when open and closed — an especially important decision if you want to maximize great views and natural lighting. 

    In the closed position, folding doors have more vertical stiles due to the panel width limitation; therefore, they impose greater view obstruction when compared to sliding doors. Sliding doors allow for larger panels, which results in fewer vertical posts and more unobstructed views when closed. 

    However, in the open position, a sliding system still obstructs half or a portion of the opening, whereas a folding door system can be folded to the sides in its entirety freeing up the whole opening for easy access.

    How do I know if Vetrina Bifold Systems are right for my space?
    Our Aluminum Commercial Bifold Doors and Moving Glass Window Systems can be customized to fit any space of any size.

    Can Vetrina’s Bifold Doors be used for exterior and interior applications?
    Yes, our Bifold Glass Folding Doors can be used as partitions for interior spaces, and as glass walls between the inside of your business and the outside.

    What material are your doors made out of?
    All of our products are constructed locally from the highest grade 6063 T-5 thermal extrusion aluminum alloy, making them as sturdy as steel, but lighter, and much more resilient and long-lasting than plastic and wood materials utilized by many of our competitors.

    Can the doors be locked with a key?
    Yes, Vetrina Aluminum Bifold Doors and Moving Glass Wall Systems offer the same functionality as traditional patio and entrance doors.

    What about the warranty?
    Hardware and moving components are warranted against manufacturing defects for five (5) years. Glass is warranted against seal failure caused by manufacturing defects for five (5) years. Aluminum profiles are warranted against manufacturing defects resulting in a loss of structural integrity for fifteen (15) years.

    Does the Bifold System provide an airtight weatherproof seal?

    What’s the largest size of a single panel in the Bifold System?
    Maximum size of a single panel is 47 ¼” x 118”. The system may have anywhere from 2 to 14 panels.

    Our usual lead time from the drawings approval stage for standard configurations is 26-32 week; custom projects and special features may take longer.
