Modern architecture and design are all about open spaces and natural light, and bifold glass doors bring both of those to any project. Maybe you own or manage an upscale apartment building where each of the units has a private balcony. You’d love to add glass doors, but sliding doors always leave half of the opening blocked and there’s not enough room for swinging doors. What if there was another option?
Bifold doors are the perfect solution. Commonly referred to as accordion doors, they are split into two panels that fold together when opened. They offer a sleek, clean design while letting in plenty of light. They allow the doorway to be unobstructed and can fit perfectly even in small spaces because they fold flat against one side of the opening. Folding glass doors are revolutionizing commercial properties around the nation. Here’s how they can transform yours.
Expanding Options for Outdoor Seating
Typically, restaurants are only able to offer as much seating as they can fit inside the exterior walls. This made things especially difficult when social distancing restrictions were put into force and all the tables inside of restaurants had to be at least 6 feet apart. Outdoor seating became a common solution, but having to go through a heavy swinging door to an entirely different dining space isn’t ideal for guests or servers.
Bifold glass doors eliminate that problem and make it easier for restaurants to expand their seating outdoors while keeping a cohesive ambiance between the two spaces. The doors offer flexibility since they can easily be shut for private events or in case of bad weather, and opened when needed.
Space-Saving Showers
If you’re ready to upgrade the showers in your apartment complex, senior living center, student housing units, or multi-family buildings, bifold doors are the perfect option. They make bathrooms feel luxurious while also saving space. Sliding glass doors always leave half of the shower obstructed and swinging glass doors stick out into the room. Folding glass doors solve both of those problems. They open fully and don’t take up much space, so they’re ideal for small bathrooms that are typical in apartment buildings and hotels.
Endless Options
Customizing the look of your facility is easy with folding glass doors. You can customize the type of glass, the frame, and the hardware to fit your style. Frameless bifold doors are also an appealing option. From rustic and industrial to sleek and modern, folding glass doors can offer it all.
