Space, Light and British Craftsmanship

Imagine stepping into a home where walls dissolve into wide, sunlit vistas – where the boundary between indoors and outdoors is almost undetectable. This is the magic of Origin folding doors, a prime example of British engineering that combines 36mm ultra-slim sightlines, exceptional security and future-proof thermal performance.

As a proud official Origin partner, Bifolding Door Factory brings these transformative doors to life with precision installation tailored to the UK’s unpredictable climate.

The Origin Folding Door Difference

Origin’s folding doors are functional design statements built to redefine living spaces.

The OB-36 Contemporary Folding Door

Slimmest profile on the market: Just 36mm of visible frame maximizes glass area for unobstructed views.
2025 Future Homes Standard compliant: Exceeds upcoming thermal regulations with U-values as low as 0.8 (with Aerogel upgrade).
Free-glide system: Four-wheel acetal carriages ensure buttery-smooth operation, even for 12-panel configurations.

“The OB-36 isn’t just a door – it’s a vanishing act. With sightlines thinner than a smartphone, your garden becomes an extension of your living room.”

The OB-49 and OB-72 Systems

The OB-49, with 49mm sightlines, is ideal for modern homes, prioritising light and minimalist aesthetics.
The OB-72, with 72mm sightlines, features chamfered edges and woodgrain finishes, adding to a traditional charm with aluminium’s durability.

Why Choose Aluminium Folding Doors?

Strength Meets Elegance

Prime aluminium billets (not recycled scrap) resist warping, even in coastal salt spray or -10°C winters.
Aluminium is 67% lighter than steel. This enables slimmer frames without sacrificing security. Origin’s doors withstand 1,600 Newton force on handles (tested to PAS 24:2022).

Thermal Efficiency for British Climates

Polyamide thermal breaks and optional Aerogel insulation (NASA-grade) block heat transfer, reducing energy bills by up to 30%.
Triple weather seals keep drafts and rain out while maintaining effortless operation.

Bespoke Design Freedom

150+ RAL colours: From “Anthracite Grey” to “Rose Gold,” with dual-colour finishes (e.g., white inside, grey outside).
Corner bi-folds: Wrap around 90° angles without bulky posts.
French door inserts: Combine folding panels with a central French door for flexible access.
Glazing bars: Georgian-style dividers for period homes.

Unmatched Security

Origin’s folding doors are certified by Secured by Design (police-approved) with:

8-point locking: 25mm deep-throw hooks resist crowbars.
Finger-safe gaskets and magnetic catches: Protect children while enabling ventilation.
Hinge guards: Prevent tampering. Every hinge is tested to 50,000+ cycles.
