Bi-fold doors are a popular choice for many homeowners due to their space-saving design and aesthetic appeal. In this guide, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of installing bi-fold doors in your home. Whether you are looking to upgrade your existing doors or install new ones, this guide has you covered.
Before you begin the installation process, make sure you have all the tools and materials required. This may include a drill, screwdriver, level, measuring tape, and the bi-fold door kit.
Accurate measurements are crucial for a successful installation. Measure the opening where the bi-fold doors will be installed and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a proper fit.
Start by mounting the track at the top of the opening. Use a level to ensure that the track is straight and secure it in place using screws.
Attach the bi-fold doors to the track according to the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure the doors open and close smoothly before proceeding.
Install the door hardware, including handles, hinges, and any additional accessories. Test the functionality of the doors to ensure everything is working properly.
If the doors are not hanging properly or are misaligned, make the necessary adjustments to ensure they operate smoothly.
Add any finishing touches, such as paint or trim, to complete the installation and enhance the appearance of your bi-fold doors.
Regular maintenance is key to ensuring the longevity of your bi-fold doors. Keep the tracks clean and lubricated to prevent issues with operation.
The load bearing capacity is up to 400kg per panel, which will satisfy the demand for larger opening space, and offer superior visual enjoyment. Any arrangements of opening ways are available for products less than 6 panels, which meets the needs of custom design.
