With more and more homeowners looking to incorporate their outside space within their homes, the home improvement industry has seen a surge in popularity with bi-fold doors. 

Bi-fold doors are the perfect way to seamlessly blur the lines between the outside and inside of your home whilst illuminating your property with natural light. 

But with so many different styles of bi-fold doors available in so many different materials, deciding on one can be a daunting task. 

Aluminium bi-fold doors are one of the most popular types of bi-fold doors thanks to their robustness and flexible design – but that’s not all. 

In this article, we take a closer look at some of the benefits of choosing aluminium bi-fold doors and why you should invest in them this year. 

Benefits of aluminium bi-fold doors

  1. Enhanced security

The back door is a prime target of burglars so it is important that it protects your home from break-ins.

The type of bi-fold door that a homeowner chooses will go a long way in helping to keep their home safe from unwanted guests.

Despite being lightweight, aluminium is extremely robust compared to other types of door. By combining an aluminium bi-fold door with sophisticated locking systems, this makes an aluminium door one of the most secure types of doors on the market. 

  1. Endless design possibilities

We all like to have choice so when it comes to flexibility – this is where aluminium bi-fold doors shine. Thanks to the flexibility in their design, these doors are available in a range of colours, finishes and styles so that they can be tailored to suit any home and even the most difficult specifications and shapes. 

  1. Saves time and money

Keeping your doors clean and looking their best can be a time-consuming and sometimes costly process. Well, one of the biggest draws of aluminium doors in general is that they are practically maintenance-free. Aluminium is not susceptible to rot or warping. This means no matter what the elements throw at your door it will be able to withstand it. This makes keeping your door looking its best cheap and easy. You can also save yourself time on cleaning as an aluminium door only needs wiping down every now and then. 

  1. Excellent energy-efficiency 

It can often be underestimated how big impact your doors can have on keeping your home at more comfortable temperature. An aluminium bi-fold door will, in fact, offer greater insulation than other door materials by helping to prevent heat from escaping your home. 

Not only that, an aluminium bi-fold door can also help a homeowner save money on their energy bills making them a worthwhile investment.

This fantastic door was supplied and installed last year by E&A Windows. This year I noticed that the door was sticking and becoming difficult to open. I called and the very next day Arthur arranged for a team to stop by and adjust. Fantastic service and the door is opening and closing beautifully 😍

Very professional company that we would highly recommend. From initial conversations with Rob, Alan for all our measurements, and John and his fitting team, we couldn’t be happier with the end result. E&A provides a first class service and helped us with organising bespoke stained glass for our front door and side windows, as well as good recommendations for further works not linked to their services. The fitting team were exceptionally polite, extremely tidy, and considerate. We chose Timberlook windows in Painswick and an Endurance door in the same colour. Happy customers! Thank you 🤩

I wish I’d read the one star review. I also received bully, harassment and intimidation from a member of the team on a dark night with no one else around. Can’t be bother to spend the time writing more details. Disgusting behaviour. Should be reported to the police for the way they acted. Don’t go near this company.

Very professional experience from start to finish with all parts of the process through to installation delivered efficiently. Adrian did a fantastic job when installing, professional, polite & helpful and could not have asked for any more from him.

E&A Windows replaced all of the windows and front door in my house as well as replacing the framing and glass panels of my conservatory. The price was very competitive and the project was executed professionally and efficiently. The fitting team were excellent, very considerate as well as careful and tidy. I can't fault them at all and I would recommend E&A windows.

We bought our new windows and doors from A and E and the whole experience was a pleasure. Extremely professional, excellent service, competitive prices and brilliant attention to detail. But what sets them apart from the rest is their customer care. Two and half years on we had a slight problem with the lock on one of the doors, I called and someone came that afternoon and fixed it immediately. Amazing company and Amazing service, thankful to a good friend who recommended them to us!

From start to finish, from our initial visit by Erez, then Arthur the surveyor & the fitting team, John Peter & Andrew E&A exceeded expectations. We are delighted with the windows & the finish. I think my Husband is now convinced we did the right thing after his initial reluctance to replace our windows. We chose Timberlook windows which have a wood effect finish & are perfect for our old house.The team from E&A Windows who did the fitting did a fantastic job. We were really impressed by the attention to detail at every stage of the job, but particularly the last day where they took such care to get all the trim right & looking good. Our house was built in 1890 & nothing is easy as no wall is even but they really took time to get it right & looking good. Andrew spent a long time cutting back & filling & sanding the rotten wood around the kitchen window so it is all ready for our decorator when he comes to paint the rest of the house & the excellent work he has done will ensure we have no further rot! The tidying up after they finished was again, well beyond our expectations - they even swept the grass! Every day they tidied & swept before going home.All three guys worked so well as a team. They also work so hard, not taking any proper breaks! On talking to them, they said that they are able to do such a good job as they are given a realistic time scale for each job by E&A (unlike other companies} so they have plenty of time to make sure the job is done to the highest standard without rushing! They did the job with such enthusiasm & clearly take much pride in their work!I cannot recommend this company enough!

From the first moment when Arthur came round to advise, measure-up and quote for the job we felt we were in good hands. And his team of installers provided the best service. I always think that the best test is if something needs further attention and in this case they returned promptly to fix a small issue and nothing was too much trouble. Our new doors have transformed the back of our house and we highly recommend this company for work of the highest quality. Thank you Arthur and team!

We got our back and front doors replaced by E&A Windows and we couldn't be happier with the job they did. Erez was so helpful as took the time to come to our home to give us a quote, explaining all our options thoroughly and clearly without being pressuring in the slightest. The quality of both doors was fantastic and Adrian’s installation was fast and completed to a very high standard. He was also very helpful. We would highly recommend E&A Windows and will definitely use them again for any future double glazing needs. Thanks so much!

Very professional service! During my initial consultation, I was fortunate enough to deal with the owner of the company. He visited my property and spent a few hours talking me through design options and his recommendations. His recommendations were very insightful and ensured my build looked elegant and modern while retaining the functionality required for an active family of 4. The build process was equally professional with the construction team arriving when they said, treating my property with respect and cleaning up after they finished each day...something not often done by today's tradesmen. I've recommend this company to my parents.

I have just had new windows installed by E&A Windows and I must say I was very impressed. Arthur the owner of the company was so helpful and supportive throughout the process. I don't know much about windows so was skeptical at first, but I felt at ease very quickly. The guys who came to fit the windows (John, Christie and Peter) were absolute legends. They were extremely friendly and so so helpful, and the respect they gave me, my elderly parents and our home was exceptional. They took care of our home as if it was their own. I have never come across such professionals, not only did they do a fantastic job , but they went well beyond, seemed like nothing was impossible. They were with us only for 3 days but my parents were actually sad to see them go. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to fit new windows.
