What should you look for in a luxury bifold door supplier?
Exceptional thermal efficiency
Considering the thermal efficiency of bifold doors when choosing a supplier to work with ensures your customers are provided with the best-quality products for their homes. Origin’s recent research found that conscious consumerism is a top priority for UK homeowners. A luxury supplier should offer competitive U-values in addition to providing striking bifold door designs. Supplying thermally efficient bifold doors can also boost your reputation as a supplier, increasing customer satisfaction.
When you work with Origin, you can be assured of exceptionally thermally efficient systems for your customers. Our bifold doors offer U-Values from only 0.87 W/M2 K, providing both a practical and eye-catching solution for your customers’ homes.

Excellent material quality
Aluminium, known for its strength, durability, and sleek appearance, is a popular choice for luxury bifold doors. Aluminium is lightweight yet strong, resistant to corrosion. It is also an eco-friendly material, as is 100% recyclable. Origin is renowned for its use of high-grade, powdercoated aluminium. Powdercoated finishes are able to withstand harsh conditions and heavy use.

Find a bespoke supplier to work with
A luxury supplier will provide lots of choice to your customers, offering a range of style and design options. Bespoke bifold doors are custom-made folding doors that are designed to fit specific measurements and preferences. Unlike standard doors, they can be tailored in terms of size, material, colour, accessories, security, and finish to meet the unique requirements of a property.
Created bespoke to ensure you can make the most of your space, Origin Bifold Doors range from one to twelve door sets. Individual doors can be manufactured as narrow as 400mm, as wide as 1,200mm and as tall as 3,025mm. Your customers can choose how they open and close – whether they fold in or out, and how they slide – to meet their exact needs. Our huge range of colour and finish options ensures that there is a style to suit your customer’s home, with 150 RAL colours to choose from.
Our all-new Soho External Door collection epitomises the pinnacle of luxury and style, providing a striking steel-look design and slim sightlines with unparalleled functionality.

How are Origin aluminium bifold doors made?
At Origin, our aluminium bifold doors are made from prime billets, instead of using melted down scrap aluminium. This helps to ensure a much stronger and better-quality product for your customers. In addition, all doors sold by Origin are designed and made in-house, which means doors can be custom made to suit the exact requirements of the project.
Any bifolding door designed and made by Origin have undergone rigorous testing, which helps to ensure the longevity of these doors.
How do aluminium bifold doors compare to other materials?
Aluminium, particularly when powdercoated, provides excellent security and strength. It also stacks up well against other materials such as uPVC and timber.
Unlike wood, which can require regular maintenance to ensure it stays looking as good as possible, aluminium does not expand or contract in certain weather conditions.
In contrast to uPVC, aluminium can be made and recycled much more efficiently, making it a more eco-friendly option for the planet. It is also more lightweight and takes up less space than other materials. Aluminium is more resilient to weather than uPVC, as uPVC tends to warp and expand in harsher weather conditions which makes it difficult to operate.
