Aluminium Bifold Doors in Ferndown
Ferndown is a town of gardens. It grew from a small village in the 1950s into one of the largest towns in east Dorset, and most of its homes sit on generous plots among mature trees. A set of bifold doors is a natural way to open the house up to all that space.
We fit aluminium bifold doors with panels between 600 and 900mm, a traffic door for everyday comings and goings, and a powder-coated finish in almost any colour. We are about 19 miles away in Shaftesbury, and Kenny surveys every opening himself before our own team carries out the installation.
Bifold Doors for Ferndown Bungalows and Family Homes
Ferndown has a great many bungalows, and a bifold door across the back of one can change how the whole house feels, opening the main living space straight onto the garden. On a two-storey family home, a three or four-panel door is a popular replacement for an old patio door.
Bifold doors at the back of a house are usually covered by permitted development. If your home is listed or has had its permitted development rights removed, Kenny will advise on whether Dorset Council needs to be involved.
Our Range
Aluminium Bifold Doors
Aluminium bifolds in two to seven panels, folding in or out. Across the back of a Ferndown bungalow, they put the living room right onto the garden.
Bifold Doors Fitted Properly in Ferndown
Ferndown homes tend to have big gardens and mature trees, and we take the time to get every door right for its plot.
Fitted by Our Own Team
Our own team handles the whole fit, from lifting out the old door to sealing the new frame, and the rooms are left swept and tidy before we go.
Secure as Standard
Each bifold has multi-point locks, anti-lift hardware and toughened safety glass fitted as standard.
FENSA Registered
We self-certify each installation under Building Regulations, and a FENSA certificate is sent to you once the door is in.
Bifold Doors in Ferndown: Your Questions Answered
Which areas around Ferndown do you cover?
We cover Ferndown, West Parley, Trickett’s Cross, Stapehill, Longham, Hampreston, Ameysford and West Moors, along with Shaftesbury and the surrounding area.
Do I need planning permission for bifold doors in Ferndown?
Normally not. A bifold at the back of a Ferndown house, or in a new rear extension, usually comes under permitted development. Things change if the house is listed, if the doors face the road in a conservation area, or if the opening is being made wider. In those cases Dorset Council or Building Control may need to be involved, and Kenny will explain what applies at the survey.
How many panels will my bifold door need?
That comes down to the width of the opening and how you plan to use the doors. Panels are generally 600 to 900mm wide, so an opening of 1.8 to 2.4 metres tends to take three, and a wider bungalow wall four or five. We nearly always add a traffic door, so one panel works as an ordinary door.
What guarantee do you give?
Frames and sealed glass units are guaranteed for 10 years, hardware for 2 years and our workmanship for 10 years, all backed by an insurance-backed guarantee through HomePro.
How much do aluminium bifold doors cost?
The main factors are width, number of panels, frame colour, glass and any building work to the opening. As each door is made to measure, we can only price it properly after a survey. The survey and quotation cost nothing, and on a genuine like-for-like comparison we are rarely beaten on price.
