Are Folding Doors Right For Your Space?
Glass doors are an ideal way to bring more natural light into a space and make a room feel more open and airy. Bi-folding doors take those offerings to the next level, allowing for even more passage of light and the opportunity to expand your living space beyond the walls of your home. If you’re not quite sure if folding doors are right for your home, consider the below questions.
Are you looking to add more natural light to your space?
Bi-folding glass doors are an amazing way to turn a dark, closed off room into a light and airy space, instantly maximizing the amount of natural light in a space simply by utilizing unused wall space. You can quadruple the amount of natural light a single window or glass door allows in by installing bi-folding doors.
Do you want to make a smaller space feel bigger?
Folding doors make a room feel much bigger than its actual square footage, not only by introducing more natural light as mentioned, but by continuing one’s line of vision well beyond the walls of the home. By essentially installing a wall of glass, you’re creating a large window into the outdoors. If you have a room that you’d like to feel larger and more airy, glass folding doors are a great way to do so.
Do you have an outdoor living space that would benefit from easy access?
Whether it be a patio, deck, garden, or backyard pool, if you have an outdoor space that you’re looking to get more use out of, opening your indoor space to that outdoor space is a great step towards doing so. Glass bi-folding doors connect the indoors to the outdoors, essentially expanding and combining your indoor and outdoor living spaces when the doors are fully open. Which brings us to our final question…
Do you plan to host gatherings in this space?
If you love hosting dinner parties, pool parties, July 4th cookouts, family reunions, or birthday celebrations, folding doors can be a great way to maximize your space and create an easy flow of foot traffic. This helps to keep that lively gathering of yours from feeling a) disconnected due to walls separating guests who are indoors and guests who are outdoors, and b) too cramped due to limited indoor space – not to mention crowded doorways when your entry and exit points are limited. So open up those walls with bi-folding doors, and be the star host of every one of your perfectly executed parties.
