These 3.6M Elite oak external bi-folding doors come unfinished so you are able to stain, varnish or paint them to match your desired colouring.
Chunky 54mm doors and the slimmest of door stiles on the market today means a greater glass area for viewing more of your outdoor space.
Constructed of a slow-grown hardwood engineered core and a full 3mm slice of real oak on all faces, the 3.6m Elite is designed and built for strength, durability and reliability. Coupled with classy stainless steel hardware and chrome handles as standard, these bi-folding external doors will enrich the look of your home whatever your individual taste.
For security, the Elite door set has a multi-point locking system designed to meet the requirements of PAS 24 and BS 6375 on the main door, with an internal lockable bottom and top slide bolt.
Furthermore, with fantastic 24mm double glazing and low thermal U Value rating, these doors are energy efficient and keep the heat in. The unique external cill of aluminium and real oak on top to match the doors gives excellent drainage. An internal cill option is also available where doors will be fitted between a conservatory and living space.
The 3.6m Elite is designed and manufactured by us, enabling outstanding quality and affordability to be offered directly to you.

Review of Elite Unfinished 2.4m
The oak doors were very high quality and came with comprehensive fitting instructions which I found easy to follow. I gave them three coats of clear satin varnish and am pleased with the result.

Review of Elite Unfinished 1.8M
Doors delivered when requested. All components inspected and all present. Quality materials. Good instructions and all the screws, drills etc required are supplied. Straight forward to fit. My top tip: make sure you get the frame set correctly and the rest falls into place without any issue - I took my time getting the frame set as the instructions make it clear how important this is.
If you're a competent DIY'er then you'll manage to fit these yourself.

Review of Elite Unfinished 1.8M
I bought the unfinished oak doors for a couple of reasons, one being it allowed me to finish the doors with a light finish and secondly as it I was fitting them leading into a conservatory a heavy waterproof finish wasn't needed. The draught brushes that come with internal seal aren't that nice so I'll look for some more aesthetically pleasing ones.

These are excellent quality doors
These are excellent quality doors. I was very impressed with the look, fitment and finish. All you need to fit these doors is included in the packs which is great. I am a little DIY savvy and found the doors relatively easy to fit. The instructions are quite easy to follow and with some common sense make the installation reasonably straight forward. I have installed these doors between my kitchen and conservatory so purchased the internal frame, therefore, can not comment on their fitment as an external door but have no doubt this installation would be just as straight forward, with just as pleasing results. The only comment I would have is the brush draught excluder supplied to fit along the bottom of the doors was silver and would not have looked good on such good quality doors so was left off. Overall these doors have made an excellent replacement for our UPVC Patio door and look absolutely great at a very reasonable price.

The best price folding doors of this size and u-value I could find
Bought 2 sets of these folding doors, they were the best price folding doors of this size and u-value I could find, delivered very quickly after placing order and in good condition, I chose unfinished so painted them myself (just less than a days work per coat for two sets), doors and frames good quality, low u-value (1.5), good instructions and relatively easy to fix and install (the first one took a few days, the second one only one day). Would use vufold again, and recommend them.

Review of Elite 1.8m (approx 6ft) Bifold Doors
I would have loved to have given this product 5 stars, however, one thing let down a product which is otherwise very very good. The very poor area was the lack of machining for the keyhole in the day door and the final machining for the lock keep plate in the doorstile. The lack of machining for the keyhole was particularly disappointing. The main reason for this was the plastic keyhole draught excluders sit very very close to the outside edge of the lock cover plate and is very easy to make an error in chiselling this out and leaving unsightly damage protruding out this cover plate. I ended up removing the keyhole draught excluders which enabled a much smaller cutout to be made, thus reducing the risk of visible damage to the door.
Thank you for your kind feedback Mr Ridpath, we are glad to hear you are pleased with the doors overall. We strive to make the installation of our doors as easy as possible, however, unfortunately the keyhole cannot be cut out in production as it would mean the doors cannot be reversed.

Well finished and a smooth sliding action
The doors are extremely good value for money. Well finished and a smooth sliding action.
The only fault that I've found is the finish to the European oak, in that it has taken the natural look of the oak away and made it look synthetic.

I am extremely impressed with my bi-fold doors
I am extremely impressed with my bi-fold doors. All the components are of a very high quality from the frame and doors to the hardware used. Also, the hinges, locks and levers are of a high quality and easy to fit. The assembly process was straight forward and once the frame was in square and the pivot door fitted the other doors are easy to fit. I would highly recommend this product or any other in the range.

Ultra impressed with the quality
Fitted a 3m wide 4 door Elite range Bifold door for a friend and was ultra impressed with the quality, finish and installation instructions.
On the strength of that experience, I am now recommending this product to any customers of mine, looking for items like this.
I have just purchased a door for a customer and have to say that the ease of the site and the live chat that is available has further impressed me.
All in all a great experience.

Review of Elite External Bifolding Doors 10ft Pre Finished Oak Set
Great service from order to delivery and I installed them on my own on Saturday, only the one gripe from me and that is that you go to all the trouble of machining everything so it really is a case of fitting the hinges etc onto the doors and you are ready to go, but for the life of me I don't understand why you don't machine out the keyhole on the door handle, set up on the access door, not nice putting a 22mm spade bit through the doors for the keyhole to fit when the door handle is only 25mm wide, unless my preparation got missed at the factory?
Regards DarrenThank you for your kind comments relating to the service you received and for your feedback regarding the installation. You are correct, we do not machine for the keyhole in the face of the access door because the Vufold Elite door set you purchased is reversible for left or right opening and the doors are reversed by turning them upside down. If we pre-machined the key hole in our factory, this would eliminate the reversibility of the door set. Everything else is pre-machined to make installation easier. Thank you again for your feedback.

These doors have added so much style and living space
These beautiful oak bifold doors have been installed between a new sunroom and a small internal lounge. They let in loads more light and with the bifold doors folded right back they have extend our living area into the new sunroom more than we expected, it's like one big room and absolutely ideal when family or friends visit, but in winter we can save on heating and get cosy with the doors closed and yet still enjoy the view outside. We purchased the doors online during a special price deal so the price was fantastic. The installation instructions were clear and easy to follow. Our joiners working on the sunroom were so impressed with the high quality, good looks and ease of installation and the handles and hinges look nice and seem very good quality. These doors have added so much style and living space to a once tiny featureless lounge.

High quality of the build
Whilst I didn't build and install these myself, the builders were highly complimentary on the ease to put together and the high quality of the build quality compared to other, more expensive doors they have previously worked with.
Indeed, an electrician that was also on site that day will shortly be ordering a set for himself!

We are very pleased with our Bifolding doors which we had fitted recently. The installation took a day using the instruction manual provided. The finished oak doors look lovely and build quality is excellent. The doors are very easy to open and close and locking system ensures they are secure. Compared to similar products these doors were the best value for money and Vufold a super company to deal with before and after sale. I would recommend Vufold to anyone wanting to enhance their home with a great product.

Elite 8ft doors, we love them.
We were looking to replace our Conservatory roof and decided to knock out the wall and fit some bi-fold doors. We live in a listed building and were advised by Bury Council that we had to fit wooden doors. Thank you Bury Council for making us look for wooden doors, we found Vufold on their website and went to see them at the Northern Homes Show exhibition. We Fell in love with the doors straight away, they just ooze quality, the staff on the stand were very helpful and informative. Doors were delivered at the time promised and we started fitting them soon after. I am not a builder or window or door fitter by any means, just a fairish DIYer. The doors went together very well which is testament to the build quality. I followed the comprehensive instructions to the letter, had a couple of questions along the way and the support staff at Vufold could not have been more helpful. The doors are in now and we love them, everyone that has seen them admirers them, thank you Vufold we love our doors.

Would definitely recommend and already have
Our fitter struggled to fit these but they look great. Had seals left over I hope that was correct and that are still some to fit.
Delivery was slow but that was your delivery company .
Would definitely recommend and already have.Reply from Vufold: Thank you for taking the time to send your feedback. We are sorry to hear your fitter struggled to fit the doors and that you found our delivery time slow. If you have not already contacted Vufold to discuss these areas further we will be more than happy to receive further feedback. Although we have designed our door sets for easy installation and receive very positive feedback regarding ease of installation we will always endeavour to improve in any areas we can. We offer 2 delivery services, 7 - 14 day delivery or express delivery should you require sooner. Some of the draft seals will need to be cut to size but there should be no full lengths left over, please contact our customer service team on 01625442899 and we will be able to advise where they will require fitting to. This information is also detailed in our installation guide. Thank you for your kind comments, we are pleased your doors look great and that you will and have recommended Vufold.

they look stunning between our dining room and conservatory
I have to admit I was unsure about making such an expensive decision as this without seeing but I read all the reviews and decided to take the plunge and order. I have to honest and say that I do not regret it. Once fitted (not difficult for a diy'er) they look stunning between our dining room and conservatory. I had one question which meant calling the customer services and the lady was more than helpful offering advice and posting some screw covers. Thank you

Joiner very impressed with the quality
The Elite 8' Oak doors are excellent. I had them fitted by a joiner who was familiar with comparable products and he is very impressed with the quality, and the thoughtful design of all the components, so that they were straightforward to assemble. As the doors open out to a conservatory, we ordered the low threshold, and the joiner has managed to fit this flush with the carpeting so that, when open, there genuinely is a "one-room" feel. We have not even bothered to fit the draught excluder

exceptional and great value for money
We purchased a similar set for one of our cottages from an outlet 3 years ago and are still delighted with it. Since the new one is in a more exposed position we decided to take your Elite model and find it exceptional and great value for money. More robust and easy to fit and install (all in about one day with the help of a neighbour!) The only niggle....the stay with rubber insert does not hold the opening door back when open (even with careful fitting of the receiver!) unlike our previous model which had a magnetic catch!

The doors are lovely and were delivered on time
The doors are lovely and were delivered on time etc but there was a lot of confusion installing them due to the manual trying to cater for left and right handed installations simultaneously. If you could sort this I would give them a five star rating. Hope to buy some more next spring for the conservatory.

Everything went smoothly
We have just fitted a 10' set of Elite doors with a flush sill, everything went smoothly with the assembly but we could not complete the job because we were unhappy with the choice of polished chrome door handles supplied, these do not match the hinges etc. which have a pleasant matt finish. Also, the shiny aluminium brushes supplied to seal under the doors are totally unsuitable and cannot be used as they would completely spoil the look of the oak doors. I am surprised that a better engineered solution for this could not be found to suit the flush sill. The job won't be complete until we have found some suitable handles and an alternative means of draft proofing under the doors.
Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your feedback. To be honest from customer research the feedback we received with regards to preferred handles most opted for a chrome finish. If you would prefer more of a matt finish and you are still struggling to source one please contact our customer service team who will be more than happy to help. We recommend installing the flush cill without the brush seals fitted at the bottom as they are not always required depending on how much draft is experienced between the 2 rooms.

Everyone thinks they look great.
I have fitted four sets of your doors (a 7ft, an 8ft, a 9ft and a 12 ft). Fitting has gone well but the 7ft is the most difficult to lock. I think the weather strips might be the cause.
Everyone thinks they look great.Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your product review. We are pleased to hear the fitting went well and that you have received great comments regarding the Vufold Elite doors. The locking of the door can be eased by making some slight adjustments to the hinges and lock keep. You can find easy to follow, detailed instructions on how to adjust the operation of the doors in the assembly instructions. Once the correct adjustments have been made this should resolve the locking issue however if you are still experiencing problems please contact our customer service department who will be able to assist you.

We shall, without question, be using your excellent bi-folding doors on future projects
Dear Sirs, this is the first time that I have felt compelled to write to compliment any supplier on the quality of their products and service.
We recently bought 4 sets of Oak 2.4m Elite bi-folding doors and have been delighted with the product, that, incidentally, was ordered and delivered quickly and efficiently with no fuss.
Everything about the doors impressed both myself and my fitters – the quality of the robust frame profile, the timber, the finish and the hardware is first class (we have used Jeld Wen and NuVu equivalents before and although they are decent enough products, they do not come close on quality or design). The instructions were clear and easy to follow and every last detail had been considered (templates for hinges etc.) – I assume that a lot of thought from an experienced professional fitter has gone into your product. The inclusion of all fixings and suitable drill bits was also surprising but most welcome.
We shall, without question, be using your excellent bi-folding doors on future projects.

Overall a very good product and service
Overall am happy with the doors, but did find that the instructions were not fault free by any means, had to double check everything and doing so discovered a few typos and mistakes that common sense luckily resolved.
Delivery and communications were very good.
Striker plate for door latch is the weakest part of the design, is just screwed onto the surface of the frame when a sunken mounting would look much better quality.
Door locking mechanism is also very stiff despite filing back the adjuster lugs to their maximum.
Overall a very good product and service, that could be made almost perfect with a little more care for detail on design.

I have now had my doors installed for a couple of months now. I am very pleased with the whole Vufold experience, the ordering was straightforward, the delivery excellent, the installation and instructions clear and easy, but more importantly the product looks fantastic.

Absolutely over the moon
Really please with these folding doors after living with aluminium sliding patio doors for years! Beautifully made and great colour. The whole process went like a dream. Only blip was delivery side when one part was delivered following day but no big deal. The joiner fitted with no problems at all. Have to say that they really open up the house from the room into the conservatory and garden when fully opened - just hope the weather improves as they are really cozy when closed too! Absolutely over the moon and at a better price than certain diy store.

have no hesitation in recommending the product
Overall I am very pleased with these doors. The quality seems very good and they look well made. I have had a builder to fit them and he was nervous of buying via the internet but has been very impressed both by the product and the company's service. He has indicated that he will be using Vufold again.He has coped quite well with fitting them but it would not be a task for the novice D.I.Y chap. I would have no hesitation in recommending the product to other people. Most encouraging was that the company were proactive in saying they may have sent one of the bits wrongly and despatched by express delivery the replacement part. At all times The staff were most helpful and knowledgeable. Many thanks.

Quality of doors are brilliant
I didn't put the doors in but had the builder do it who's refurbishing my house. His view; quality of doors are brilliant but no way could a DIY person or similar find it easy to fit...
Just one thing from me: where he had to screw into side walls, there's no supply of little plastic caps to fit holes or any suggestion of what to do. He will fill with silicone and place caps over but maybe you could supply or suggest what to do.

they are quality and the finish is spot on
Have just installed these doors on my cottage renovation and they look beautiful , I was a bit dubious about buying online , I even rang up the showroom and asked one of the staff to send a photo from their showroom . The pictures don't do them justice , they are quality and the finish is spot on , my builder likes them and says they are solid , I hope they stand the test of time now , if they don't I will be sure to let you know .

Apart from getting the hinges muddled up as they had fallen out of the slots in the box, managed to do the whole job by myself with a little help to move the frame into position. All those who have seen the doors since installation are most impressed with your product

Very pleased with the look and finish of the doors. Operation is smooth and effortless. Installers encountered no difficulties. Looking forward to winter! The whole operation from telephoning to order to delivery has been very smooth and timings were adjusted to suit our build schedule. we are so pleased with the doors, and the service, that we have ordered two sets of internal folding doors as well. Highly recommend the doors and the company.

Excellent quality
It is now a year since I fitted my Vufold 54 Elite bifolding door. There is no need to mince words, the product is excellent quality, and is a joy to use. The after sales service from yourselves has been equally excellent. I have needed a couple of minor items replacing since I bought the product, and both have been dispatched with no fuss, promptly, and most importantly of all, politely and professionally.
I commend both your personnel and your product.
Many many thanks

Overall the product is very good
Overall the product is very good and the installation generally was not complicated.
There were some times when the A & B instructions became blurred and it would have helped to have a seperate section for each.
The drilling of the intermediate hinges was worrying but in the end I just drilled as per the marked holes
The drilling of the key barrel was annoying and I cannot see why its not done at the factory!
The brushes for the outside of the door are not pretty and I will look for something else that will do the same job

Really pleased with the quality
Arrived in very good time and in good condition. I had 3 fitters including one chippy to fit the doors and they were not as competent as other reviewers as it took all day to install the doors (and another day to make good the mess!). However the fitters, chippy and I were really pleased with the quality. "The doors will last 50 years but the draft sealers won't". That seemed the only niggle so, when the seals give up I will be in touch.
Reply from Vufold: The draft seals are quite hard wearing however they can be easily replaced so should you need any replacement draft seals please do not hesitate to contact our customer service department.

Easy to install
Extremely pleased with our doors! Delivery was quick and easy... the builder who installed the doors for us was most impressed with the ease of installation and with the high quality of the doors - much better than more expensive products we looked at (in well known high street DIY stores).
Both my builder and myself will be recommending VUFOLD doors in the future - thanks!

Totally changed the way the room looks
These were delivered well within the timeframes quoted. Stored for a couple of weeks in garage flat as advised with no issues. Installed in less than a day with a few minor adjustments over the next week, very please and have already recommended to several people. Pleased that we bought the pre-finished ones as good to go with no fuss. They have totally changed the way the room looks like from inside and out.

The doors look lovely

Luxurious doors
Really solid, luxurious doors with beauitiful finish - I love them! These are high quailty folding doors at a very reasonable price.
Tradesmen thought that they were a bit tricky to install but afterall these are heavy folding doors - this is not a one man diy job! In the end they were impressed.
Helpful staff when I had a few problems ordering through their new website.

Excelent quality, easy to fit
Excelent quality,easy to fit,the direct fixings supplied were superb. My only mistake was not fixing the frame so that when the doors are closed the fixings are hidden. My mistake but it could be added to the instructions to stop others repeating this. It is an excellent product,delivery prompt,sales staff proffessional & friendly ,no complaints at all. Thankyou

Great product
Replaced a 13 year old set of hardwood patio doors with these after extensive research. No problem in recommending these doors to others. My only adverse comment would relate to the fixing instructions of the frame - the instructions state positions of the frame bolts supplied but in my opinion if you were to follow the instructions you would see these fixing points on completion. Instead, I ensured the bolts remained behind the vertical lock fixing plates so that when the plate was fitted, it hid the bolt positions. For competant DIY'ers to fit these would not be a problem - it took just over a day to finish everything off. Just a shame the weather this summer has been poor but when the sun shines, the doors are fully open! Great product - good communication prior to delivery - enough said.

Gorgeous to look at
I am delighted with my Vufold doors.
My installer found them easy to work with and the fitting proceeded without a hitch. In use they glide open and closed with a reassuring quality and are gorgeous to look at.
In all a very good buy that will add value to my property and which I am confident of enjoying for many years.

The wow factor!
Really pleased with my doors so far. I chose Vufold as I have used them before and I knew they would be easy to put together and the fact that they are pre-finished makes the whole job so much simpler. This set was the largest three door folding set and my previous were the 5ft French doors both in Engineered Hardwood rather than solid oak. The finish is better than I could do myself so I am hopeful that they will bear the seaside winters well. Only time will tell but for now they really have the wow factor!

Extremely Well Designed
Just a quick note to say how delighted I am with the Vu-Fold Elite doors I have just installed. The product is extremely well designed and engineered, and the instructions are clear and importantly correct. Ok, so I had a quality problem with the frame head, but a call to Emma sorted that out and I was able to resolve the problem. Your customer service is really something to shout about. The doors not only look great, they feel solid and the sound insulation quality is really good.I fitted the flush cill in my door which allowed me to get a low level threshold.Thanks again for your help and assistance.

Excellent diy product
16 foot of diy madness, not! The staff once ordered the door were brilliant. Door arrived on the day we agreed. Checked all was present with the order even the driver helped. My only complaint but my fault is I never ordered pre-finished.
So out with the brushes, this took me on my own 24 hrs of 3, 8 hours days to achieve the 3 coats. The aperture was made to the size as per the manual only to find the frame was 10mm larger than the manual. Easy fix was to open the aperture a little. You are told not to cut the frame, the amount of workmanship that has gone into building the frame it would be a shame to mark it in anyway. I had three people help me position and hold the frame. The drill bits to go through the metal work could do with being more substantial or more supplied as I used 4 bits.
Once the frame was installed the doors were almost easy enough for my 15 year old lad to install. Setting the positioning of the doors was easy. Once the seals were installed, made the doors wind proof.
I have spoken with a lot of window/door companies and got many a tale of Bi-Folding doors and if I had listened to them I would still have a big gaping hole in my self-build extension. I am now looking to fit an alarm system to the doors but cannot find one that is small or can be hidden so as not to spoil the look of the doors. All in all an excellent diy product, I have installed a handful of door frames and window frames, so not a professional by any means.

Great quality door and fittings all for a superb price.
Great quality door and fittings all for a superb price. The trifold door set-up has allowed us to utilise much more of our patio.
The only things I would change is a better finish on the sliding locks to match the out other fittings and the spindle linking the internal and external handles is slightly too long so the outside handle doesn't sit quite flush with the door face. Relatively straightforward to install also.Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your kind comments, we will investigate the spindle further and arrange for our customer service department to send a replacement spindle for you.

The finished article looks absolutely superb and everyone who comes thinks the same.
Purchased a pre-finished set with a flush cill to go between our (new) conservatory and our dining room. Needed an external quality door as there was no energy performance certificate on the conservatory and additionally it's north-facing so wanted the best we could get in terms of thermal performance.
Ordering process was straightforward, delivery prompt and efficient. As an advanced DiY-er I found little difficulty in installing the doors; the instructions were explicit and easy to follow. Took about a day-and-a half to complete but wouldn't recommend DiY installation to a beginner. There were just three snags. The first my problem in converting the existing oversized opening to the same size as the door and providing a suitably strong lintel on which to hang the doors. The second was that the screws to assemble the frame were very very tight in the pre-drilled holes and it was necessary to do some easing. the third was that I couldn't get the espagnolette catches and lock to engage properly and I'm afraid Vufold weren't terribly helpful in solving the problem. . .I still have the problem thought it's just a niggle as the doors are internal.
The finished article looks absolutely superb and everyone who comes thinks the same. We can make some good stuff in this country still - well done Vufold. Would I buy again? - certainly.

The doors are good quality.
The doors are good quality but quite difficult to work out how to fit. Once you get the hang of it it is fine. We have the flush cill version to go between house & conservatory. The draught proofing on door bottom on this type isn't great, just screw on 'brush draft strips' like you can buy in DIY stores. Be aware of this if buying this version.
Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your review, the brush strips are optional should you feel you need the additional draught proofing. As the top of the cill is completely flush the only way of attaching a seal is to the face or under edge of the doors with this type of brush. We will continue to search for a solution that is more pleasing in terms of appearance.

By far the best wooden doors we looked at.
Great build, great quality and by far the best wooden doors we looked at. We chose these doors due to their very slim frames which provides a much greater area of glass.
Nice touches include the magnetic holders for the folding doors. Would highly recommend. The only thing I could think of adding would be a brace for the single opening door.

The doors win on both price and quality.
Installed these doors June 2010. The tradesmen who installed the doors were impressed both with the product quality and ease of fitting.
Having been through one of the worst winters on record, the doors' insulating qualities met the challenge. The doors win on both price and quality and I am a very happy customer.

They have literally transformed my home.
Ordered two sets of the 12ft Elite. These are of exceptional quality and appearance they have literally transformed my home. Fitted them in two days. The second set being much easier after the first.
The only problems were that the drill bits were not strong enough to drill through our lintel so we had to purchase more and we found that the screws provided were too soft and again used alternatives.

Such a difference from some of the companies that I had to deal with.
Very good and well done door for the price. No problem with the delivery and even when I discover (after 1-2 months) that there is a strange mark on one of the doors, the customer service was very helpful and offer me replacement or some money back.
Very good communication, very nice to deal with, such a difference from some of the companies that I had to deal with when I refurbished my house. As I'm a builder I already recommend your company to some of my clients.

A quality product. Just a few small things that could be done: small nail holes that have been filled but not sanded, the delivery date that I was given came and went by a number of weeks. But in the whole a good product and good firm to do business with.
Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your review- we try our best to have all products in stock so they are available for delivery within 7-14days, however if we are awaiting stock unfortunately sometimes delays can happen during shipping with customs/bad weather- we will continue to keep customers up to date as much as possible in this event.

The doors are now fitted and look great. To be honest, the sample we were sent didn't do justice to the finish of the actual doors. The instructions and the way all the fittings were labelled and arranged in the boxes was a great help. I had a few problems fitting the lock but that was all.
The price was competitive and next time you have a sale on, I'll be interested in buying a set to replace some old French doors elsewhere in the house.

Would recommend these doors to anyone.
Very impressed. After frame was installed with the specs detailed in the installed guide the doors were hung with ease.
Only minor issue is that two of the locking bolts are quite stiff and the keys supplied are quite flexible. Am going to try some WD40 and if this does not fix will be contacting VUFOLD for advice - customer service thus far for minor queries has been extremely good.
Would recommend these doors to anyone who is looking for quality bifolds at very reasonable prices.

No one comes near on quality, speed of install or price.
We installed them into a show home. The doors look absolutely stunning and are of superb quality. They are one of the key selling features of the property. They were also straight forward to install.
People have been so impressed with the look, craftsmanship and price that I have since ordered and installed another set, and recommended the doors to many others.
No one comes near on quality, speed of install or price. Moreover, I have found the people at Vufold a pleasure to deal with, and highly rate their customer service.

Impressed by the quality and build.
Having received the doors I was impressed by the quality and build and my father, a carpenter for 40yrs, and I installed them with little to no problem. Then having found a problem that door one and two were narrow in the middle causing a gap feared the "Internet scam" this was not the case.
The old adage that you don't know how good a company is until something goes wrong was never more true than in this case. Having sent a few pics to explain the issue they checked the next two doors and sent then within 7 days of me making the complaint! This is the service you want having found an issue!
Good communication and a good product! I will be using them again! Thanks a lot!!

Great set of doors.
Great set of doors. Fitted them myself as a DIYer with some help from my Dad. Hardest part was ensuring the frame sat perfectly square in the opening. Assembling the doors was fairly straightforward and they run perfectly on the runners now.
Would recommend these doors and Vufold who were very knowledgable and helpful with the many questions I had before purchasing.

Very easy to fit.
The doors were delivered on time and in good condition, and my joiners found them very easy to fit; two doors in one day in fact: one 6ft the other 12ft.
They are operating very well to date, just minor cleaning of the bottom rail having been neccessary. Will be using them for the second part of our refurbishment when we have raised the money.

Our installation instructions show how to adjust the doors which requires only a screwdriver to move both the height and left to right position of the doors. Any queries on installation can be easily answered by contacting our experienced customer service team who are more than happy to help.

Good quality and quickly delivered.
Good quality and quickly delivered. Installed easily, according to our builders - who liked the manufacturing, and asked for details so they could recommend to other clients.
Locks/handles are a little flimsy - and the plates that attach to the door frame aren't in QUITE the right place, seems to me, so the locking mechanism is stiff. Also the stick-on seals on the frame are coming slightly unstuck. These are, broadly, minor niggles.
Generally we're very pleased with the doors.Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your review- the locking mechanisms and handles are made by a well-known good quality lock specialist. We machine the door and jamb which receives the locking mechanism and blank a little longer than needed which allows you to adjust the height to achieve a smooth locking action. If your draught seals are coming out of our pre machined grooves it would be advisable to look at the spacing on your door set. Advice on how to adjust the locking mechanism and also the spacing of the doors can be found in our info centre under downloadable manuals, or contact our experienced customer service team who will be able to advise.

Beautiful doors - provide a fantastic view and also are really easy to open up
Beautiful doors - provide a fantastic view and also are really easy to open up. We had them installed in early winter and we were very impressed with the quality of insulation.
We loved them so much, we came back to Vufold for french doors and we're delighted with those too.
The only tiny niggle is the quality/ease of locking the doors - often takes 2-3 attempts.
Overall great quality at a very good price.Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your kind review. Vufold would advise to adjust the lock mechanism according to our installation instructions and this will rectify the problem. The fitting instructions can be found under our Info Centre or if you contact our customer services team we will be only too happy to email them to you.

Excellent service from first contact to delivery.
Excellent service from first contact to delivery, staff very helpful and kept me informed throughout.
Doors were of good quality and just what we wanted. They are working very well in our new conservatory.
Slightly too much sanding on a couple of corners was the only problem I encountered.

The finished product is smart, works efficiently and exudes quality.
We were impressed by the whole experience of purchasing folding doors from you. Your sales team contacted us promptly with delivery information and the delivery company kept us fully informed of time scales. Our doors arrived on time and in excellent condition.
We were initially concerned at the huge number of parts, but the detailed instructions and carefully labelled parts, fittings and fixings made the whole installation far less taxing than anticipated.
The finished product is smart, works efficiently and exudes quality. We are delighted - thank you.

The best doors bar none.
There might be cheaper products on the market but do not be fooled.
The service was brilliant, the product was great and the joiner whom fitted it said they were the best doors bar none that he has ever fitted.
Five stars p.s Get a joiner to fit them.

The quality is excellent, the mechanism is really smooth and they look great.
We have just had our external doors fitted and we are extremely pleased with the result. The quality is excellent, the mechanism is really smooth and they look great. Our fitter commented on how clear and simple they were to install.
The only improvement area is the locks for the folding section, which are really big and rather unattractive.
Overall, really happy with our purchase.Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your kind feedback- the drop bolts add extra security for your installation as they slide up into the frame head and down into the frame cill, a smaller drop bolt would not provide the same level of security. The feedback on this is greatly appreciated as it is the first time a customer has shared this opinion of the drop bolts.

Delighted with our purchase.
Really pleased with the doors. Were installed in under a day by my builder - he was impressed with the quality too.
One small point, the instructions don't tell you whereabout to position the screws in the outer frame into the brickwork. If you get them in the wrong position you can see them in the frame. If you get them in the right place, they are hidden by the doors when closed. The instruction booklet doesn't make this clear.
Other than that, delighted with our purchase.Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your kind feedback. The installation instructions state where to fix in through the frame jambs into the brickwork for the best stability. On some of our door sets such as the 3 door and 5 door sets fitters choose to hide these fixing points behind the lock keep and blank lock keep which hides the majority of these fixing points from view.

First class service.
We are extremely pleased with our sliding doors. You kept them for us for several months as our renovations took longer than expected, and a missing part was immediately despatched.
First class service, thank you.

Beautifully made, solidly constructed,and good to look at.
Excellent product. Beautifully made, solidly constructed,and good to look at. I would certainly recommend.
The buying experience was also first class (Amanda is a credit to your organisation)and delivery was on time and efficient. My one gripe is that you do not supply the trim to hide the mastic.Reply from Vufold: Thank you for your kind review. Most installations allowing the 10mm on top of our outer frame height and width would'nt require an infill but every installation is different. Please contact Vufold Customer Services who can give advice on what timber and finish may provide the best match to our doors- these should be easily sourced from a timbers merchants.

Such good value for the quality.
Am delighted with these doors which my joiner has installed into my new garden room.
The comments re the quality from all the tradesmen have been impressive. They are amazed when I tell them the price - such good value for the quality.
The service from my initial enquiry to delivery has been 5* - Thank you Vufold.

Fantastic, impressive doors
Fantastic, impressive doors much admired by the joiner who installed them for us. We have subsequently bought 3 more sets and each time the customer service and product have been strikingly good- if only more businesses were the same! Aftercare has also been prompt and helpful i.e. advice on adjustment. Thoroughly would recommend.
