What are the benefits of bifold doors with slim sightlines?
Slim sightlines help to provide unobstructed views and enhance the sense of space and light. Here’s why this feature is highly beneficial:
Slim sightlines provide a modern feel that is popular among homeowners
Slim sightlines contribute to a contemporary and elegant appearance. The reduced amount of profile seen ensures that the focus remains on the glass, creating a clean and uncluttered look that complements modern architectural styles. Made-to-measure internal or external door configurations create a timeless and stunning statement feature in any home. At Origin, our slim sightlines, modern designs and flawless powder-coated finish on products, make for one-of-a-kind renovation that will complement any space.
According to Origin’s recent research, modern and classic styles continue to be in high demand among Brits in 2024. This provides peace of mind that you are supplying bifold door designs that are highly sought after by homeowners.
Increased natural light
By maximising the glass area, slim sightlines allow more natural light to flood into a space. This not only makes rooms feel brighter and more inviting, but also creates an illusion of a larger, more open space. Health benefits of exposure to sunlight include promoting a sensation of well-being and improving mood, and the use of increased natural light in the home is a key concern for homeowners undergoing renovation.
Expansive views
Large expanses of bifold doors with slim sightlines will make the most of customers’ views and help their home feel more connected to the garden. For properties with scenic surroundings, slim sightline bifold doors offer an uninterrupted visual connection, significantly increasing the property's aesthetic value.

“I won’t sell anything I wouldn’t have in my own house, or that I’m not proud to install” - Gary Copp, owner of Goldseal, 12-year Origin partner.
At Origin, the inherent strength and durability of our aluminium means that our slimmest frames on the sashes can comfortably support huge glass panels without compromising on security. This provides peace of mind to your customers that their doors will be durable and strong.
The best-quality suppliers offer slim sightlines and exceptional energy efficiency
Origin Bifold Doors incorporate advanced glazing technology that provides excellent thermal insulation. This helps in maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures and reducing energy costs. Origin’s slim sightline Bifold Doors are designed with sophisticated thermal breaks, which further enhance energy efficiency by preventing heat transfer through the frame. The OB-36+ Soho and Contemporary Bifold Doors can achieve U-Values of just 0.78W/m2K, for example.
By design, Origin creates durable yet sleek Doors which can fit into the widest apertures in the home. We use robust, yet lightweight aluminium which, due to frame design and thermal breaks, can beat the thermal efficiency of wood and uPVC.
