As lovely as they are (and we love them too) bifold doors can create temperature and glare challenges. We’ve got a wide range of bifold door blinds to choose from
Bifold doors can transform a room by opening it up to a garden or terrace, but they can also cause excess glare, heat or cold in your home. Today the most popular type of back door in the UK is a bifold, so it’s no surprise our customers are looking for ways to manage their shade and temperature issues.
Our bifold door blinds can be used with a wide variety of doors from timber, aluminium and UPVC frames to slimline folding doors
Our unique Pure™ recessed bifold door blinds neatly fit against the glass, allowing the door and blind to move as one unit—no interference when opening and closing.
Duette® blinds are ideal for folding doors as they can be recess-fitted into the door frame, significantly reducing heat and light coming into a room. We also have a range of dim-out fabrics for room darkening.

We use our own Pureâ„¢ technology to recess fit blinds into each panel of the folding door. This means that you can add shading to each individual panel of the door, without getting in the way of its operation.
With both individual and free-hanging folding door blinds, there is no limit to how many panels we can cover. Wit the individual blinds, we add one blind per panel. Depending on the overall width of the door we may need more than one free-hanging blind to cover the entire area.
Yes, adding the extra insulating layer of bespoke blinds will help stop heat transmission and give you a more comfortable roof throughout the year. A large amount of heat is transmitted through the actual frame of the doors, which is why we recommend a combination of both individual and free-hanging blinds to maximise insulation.

Having just had a new kitchen extension built with south-facing bi-fold doors, we had been looking for blinds on the doors. On the face of it, the task sounded simple, but there aren’t actually a lot of companies who do them that actually work.
We were impressed by Conservatory Blinds [now Specialist Blinds] and their representative Colin who was very helpful and showed us actual samples in our property. We chose the Duette® range of pleated blinds which fit perfectly and are very easy to operate.
On the day the blinds were fitted, the installer Dan fitted them in under a couple of hours. A superb company.
Just had blinds fitted on my bi-fold doors. To say I am pleased would be an understatement. They look fantastic and the service from Jon was impeccable. He was so friendly and informative and the attention to detail was excellent.
He certainly made the whole experience easy and it was much appreciated.
Our kitchen/diner is south facing with one wall taken up by bi-fold doors. In the summer (when the sun is out!) the kitchen can overheat somewhat. We were after a product that protected us from heat in the summer and kept warmth in the winter.
The survey and fitting were delivered with absolute professionalism (they make it look easy).
The blinds fit perfectly, look great and are easy to operate. Importantly they work perfectly (although they haven’t been tested in winter yet), but they make such a difference to our house.
