How Secure Are Bifold Doors?
At Pure Aluminium, we recognise that security is paramount, and therefore aim to provide in-depth insights to reassure our customers.
Bi-fold doors consist of multiple panels that fold back on themselves, allowing them to open up an entire wall to the outside. This feature offers not only aesthetic improvement by maximising natural light and views but also raises questions about security. Let’s delve into various aspects that make bi-fold doors a secure choice for your property.
Robust Construction
Our bi-fold doors are crafted from high-grade aluminium, renowned for its strength and durability. Aluminium is inherently robust, making it ideal for securing homes against intrusions. Our doors feature a tough, weather-resistant finish that protects against both physical tampering and environmental conditions.
Advanced Locking Mechanisms
At Pure Aluminium, we equip our bi-fold doors with high-quality locking systems. These include multi-point locks that secure the door at several points along the frame. Each door section locks into the system, providing a strong seal that is difficult for any intruder to bypass. Furthermore, we include additional locks and shoot bolt options to increase this level of security.
High-Security Glazing
The glass in bi-fold doors is another crucial component. We use toughened or laminated glass which, besides being energy-efficient, is also extremely hard to break. Laminated glass consists of a layer of plastic between two glass sheets; even if the glass is broken, the plastic layer holds the pieces together, preventing entry.
Internally Beaded Frames
Our aluminium frames are internally beaded. This construction feature means the glass cannot be removed from the outside, an often-exploited vulnerability in lower-quality doors. By beading internally, we drastically enhance the security against glass removal attempts from potential intruders.
Security Accreditations
All our bi-fold door systems are tested against industry standards for security. They meet the specifications set out in the British Security Standards, reassuring you of their ability to resist forced entry.
Customisable Features
In addition to standard features, security preferences can be met through customizable options. Whether it’s integrating blinds for additional privacy or including additional locking points for enhanced security, we can tailor each bi-fold door to meet your personal and home safety requirements. It is evident that bifold doors from Pure Aluminium do not compromise on security. With sturdy construction using aluminium, secure multi-point locking mechanisms, internally beaded frames, and security glass, bi-fold doors can indeed provide peace of mind along with stunning aesthetics.
