Hi folks, Has anyone got any advice or experience with folding doors? I'm building a new extension and up until recently I'd been considering installing them but my builder suggested that I go with French doors (fixed windows on either side and double door in the center).

Hi folks,

Has anyone got any advice or experience with folding doors? I'm building a new extension and up until recently I'd been considering installing them but my builder suggested that I go with French doors (fixed windows on either side and double door in the center). He reckons that the folding doors will just cause problems down the road.

Does anyone know any good suppliers, prices, what they're like in terms of heat loss, draughts, other problems??

Thanks

Ode To The Motorist
“And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”
