Yes, our bifold doors in Swindon can be fitted with a traffic door, also known as a single-panel door.

At Eclipse Windows, our bifold doors in Swindon are made to measure to accommodate your unique requirements. With 38 different configurations available, including options for heights up to 3 metres and widths up to 7 metres, bifold doors will be tailored to fit your specific needs, provided adequate structural support is in place.
Yes, our bifold doors in Swindon are equipped with toughened safety glass as standard. This type of glass is specially treated to increase its strength and durability, making it approximately four times stronger than standard annealed glass. In the event of breakage, toughened glass shatters into tiny, harmless fragments, not sharp shards, lowering the risk of injury.
Bifold doors are ideal for larger apertures and contemporary homes, offering sleek, modern aesthetics and expansive views of the outdoors. On the other hand, French doors have a timeless charm that suits traditional and period properties with their classic design and elegant proportions. Which option is ideal for your home depends on your needs and preferences.

Yes, bifold doors in Swindon can be locked. From the outside, they are equipped with key-operated locks that provide secure access to your home, deterring potential intruders and safeguarding your property and possessions.

While our bifold doors in Swindon are not entirely waterproof, they offer more than sufficient weather resistance to withstand British weather.

Our bifold doors in Swindon are designed with safety and security in mind. They come as standard with a multi-point locking system featuring multiple locking points along the door frame for enhanced strength and protection against forced entry. This advanced locking mechanism provides greater security than standard doors, which typically have only a single main locking mechanism that may be easier to compromise.
Our bifold doors in Swindon also have the option to select laminated glass, which is thicker than toughened glass and, therefore, offers much better resistance against accidental or intentional damage.
Our bifold doors in Swindon can be fitted with integral blinds, which offer several benefits. Unlike conventional blinds, our integral blinds are located inside the glass, making them almost impossible to damage. This ensures the safety of small children and pets who might accidentally get caught up in them.
Additionally, since they are on the inside of the glass, they require no cleaning, saving you time and effort. Moreover, integral blinds provide protection from sunlight and heat, keeping your home cool and comfortable.
Lastly, these blinds are visually stunning, enhancing the overall appearance of your home. Choose our bifold doors with integral blinds and enjoy the perfect combination of style, safety, and functionality!
