Our internal bifold doors can be made from a variety of materials like uPVC or timber, as well as aluminium. Each material has pros and cons but the most suitable choice depends on your requirements.

However, doors made of timber are the most expensive but have the highest durability. They also are the best insulation, enabling you to maximise heat retention and energy efficiency.

uPVC

uPVC is now a well-known material for windows and doors. Also known as PVCU, uPVC windows offer many advantages that are difficult to match by other materials such as timber and aluminium. They're a cost-effective choice for homeowners and come in a wide range of colors and wood grain timber effect finishes that match any style of home.

As opposed to other materials uPVC isn't affected by weather conditions. It also resists corrosion. It's also energy efficient as it stops cold from leaking into the house during the winter months and keeps hot air out in summer. Upvc frames are able to absorb solar heat, thereby increasing indoor temperatures and lessening the need for artificial lighting and cooling.

The"u" in UPVC refers to unplasticised polyvinyl chloride and refers to the fact that it hasn't been softened by plasticizers, chemicals that are used to make. It's a highly durable, low-maintenance material that is ideal for making doors and window frames because it resists the fading effects caused by sunlight and the oxidisation of water.
