Choosing the Right Back Door for Your Home

At Bergson and Eaton, we understand that picking the right back door for your property can be difficult due to the wide range of options available. To help you navigate these choices, this article will take you through styles such as bi-fold, patio, and French doors. All of these doors have different features and benefits that will narrow your decision down and make it easier to find your perfect fit. 

Bifold Doors: Saving Space

Bifold doors are renowned for saving space due to their panels that fold back on themselves. They can be opened very widely, maximising light and increasing the space in your home. It creates a flawless transition from your inside space to the outside area. At Bergson and Eaton, we offer Origin aluminium bifold doors which can be installed in over 150 colours, including different finishes and a powder coating for longevity. 

Features of Bifold Doors

Low U-values: Bifold doors have a low U-value including a 1.1 W/m2K option. This means they have high thermal efficiency as less heat flow escapes when there is a lower u-value. 

Customisable Options: At Bergson and Eaton, we offer Origin bifold doors which come in over 150 colours with options on hardware, glazing, and styles. 

Space Saving: As bifold doors fold back neatly onto one side, it makes them ideal for smaller spaces where there is reduced space as they do not take up valuable room.
