Whether it’s for a kitchen, garden room, lounge, or office we have a wide range of free-hanging door blinds to suit
It’s not always an easy decision between free-hanging or recess fitted blinds. Here, everything to keep in mind when it comes to free-hanging bifold door blinds.
If your room suffers from too much glare but you want fresh air, free-hanging window blinds can diffuse the light without losing the breeze.
We’ve got a wide range of fabric options and colours, from honeycomb pleated Duette®, to a classic Pinoleum, or a modern roller blind in opaque or semi-sheer fabric. Your choice.
Our roller and automated free-hanging blinds are all covered by an exclusive-to-Specialist Blinds cassette which can be customised to match your room. We offer 12 standard colours and can custom colour match using the RAL colour system.
Free-hanging door blinds can be automated which means they are fast, efficient and no cords get in the way, important for safety concerns about children and pets. Plus, they are especially useful in long door runs to avoid cords dropping down the middle.

There are a range of ways to operate free-hanging bifold door blinds depending on size. The LiteRise® child safe system is ideal for manual operation as it can be used in blinds up to 3.6m wide. We also have a full range of electric blinds for bifold doors, including smart operation and full home automation integration.
Dim-out fabrics are available for our range of free-hanging folding door blinds. While it is possible to use dim-out fabrics for recessed bifold door blinds, we do not recommend this, particularly if you’re south facing, as the heat build up could potentially damage the glass on the doors. Free-hangin dim-out fabrics are normally a safer option as they sit further away from the glazing.
Many customers ask about black out bifold blinds. Whilst the fabrics themselves are blackout, there will often be small light gaps around the edges of the blinds.
If your folding doors open internally (so that the doors fold into the room instead of the outside), you can still have both recessed and free-hanging blinds. The only difference with internally opening doors is that you cannot have a free-hanging blind extended while the doors are open, as they would interfere with their operation.
We certainly do! We have our own factory in Kent where we handcraft all of our blinds, including bifold door roller blinds.
We have a wide range of fabrics to choose from, and our team can offer advice on the most suitable options to suit your needs.

Just had blinds fitted on my bifold 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.
I just wanted to contact you to commend your excellent service today. We bought conservatory blinds in August last year and were delighted with them. Unfortunately, the family dog damaged one of the door blinds at the weekend. I tried in vain to repair them, and we were resigned to buying a replacement.
My wife phoned the sales rep, Jonathan, and asked his advice. Within two hours he and his partner came round and within a short space of time, they had repaired the blind. We were immensely grateful and I felt compelled to let you know.
Once again thank you to you and your staff.
