Fold-Up Doors

Fold-Up Doors consist of two leaf hinged sections, which fold together as the door is being opened. Using a counterweight system the door (in the open position) rests folded horizontally (overhead) and projects internal and external of the building. The door operates within the opening, therefore the opening must be true and plumb.

Offset Fold-Up Doors operate in a similar way to Fold-Up Doors however the two leaf sections are of predominantly different sizes and fold together in the opposite direction. In the open position the Offset Fold-Up door projects more externally than internally as standard. The door operates within the opening, therefore the opening must be true and plumb.
