The best way to get up to speed on our products is an in-person walk-through with one of our product experts. Since that’s not always possible, we’ve produced some videos to explain operation, features, and options.

BiFold Doors Technical Guide
Our BiFold exteriors can be metal-clad (extruded aluminum) or non-clad (all wood). Therefore, the exterior can showcase any of the clad colors you’ll see on our Colors & Finishes page. In the case of a non-clad unit, a painted or stained finish could be used (see our Colors & Finishes page for our pre-finishing offerings).
The interior of our BiFold doors will be a beautiful and high-performing wood species. Our standard of course is Coastal Douglas Fir, but alternative species like Honduran Mahogany are also available. You can leave the interior with a simple clear coat, stain it, or paint it. To see our limited pre-finishing options, see our Colors & Finishes page.
Loewen BiFold doors include either flush-mounted shoot bolts, or a Twin Point Lock handle. Additionally, many BiFold door configurations also include a man-door, in this case you’ll also need to choose a handle from our Terrace Door handle set. For a comprehensive look at all these offerings, please see our Door Hardware page.
A simple benefit of BiFold Doors is the narrow sill, regardless of how large the opening is. MultiSlide Doors and LiftSlide Doors have sills that get deeper as openings get larger and more panels are added. BiFold doors, however, only require a single track, even in large-opening scenarios.
BiFold units are well-suited for window applications. This is often a great solution in kitchen and entertaining areas, creating a large pass-through unit between indoor and outdoor serving spaces. The window folds out, so there’s no interference with kitchen faucets, and BiFold tracks stay narrow regardless of the opening size.
