Revitalising a Brentwood Home with White Steel-Look Bifold Doors
A simple yet effective replacement of dated timber doors with a new set of steel-look bifold doors is in Brentwood, Essex. We were the first choice for our customers wanting to replace their dated timber folding sliding doors with a more modern alternative without losing the benefits and functionality of a folding door.
The solution lay installing the latest on-trend steel-look bifold doors, expertly crafted using the Smart Systems Visofold 6000 series in the desirable steel-inspired style and finished in classic matt white.
While charming, the original timber bifold doors had become cumbersome and looked dated, with thick frames. By opting for the Visofold 6000 aluminium bifold doors, we’ve breathed new life into this existing patio door aperture with a sleek and practical set of bifold doors that are also very slim.
With mullion sightlines of just 94mm, these doors are among the slimmest on the market. They offer a significant reduction in frame thickness compared to traditional timber options. These reduced frames mean bigger glass sizes than the original timber doors, more light and a better feeling of space throughout.
Visofold 6000 bifold doors in the steel look come with two possible frame options: the profiled frame shown in this project, with a slight ovolo and curving to the aluminium profiles, or the heritage sash option, more typical of classic steel windows and doors.
Our signature slimline 20mm glazing bars give a distinctive steel-like appearance. These minimalist aluminium colour-matched bars create the familiar and on-trend grid-like pattern reminiscent of classic steel doors. This industrial, Art-Deco-inspired style adds character and visual interest to the space, bridging the gap between traditional charm and contemporary elegance. At the same time, the views out to the garden area are impressive, thanks to the benefits of slimline aluminium.
These steel-look bifold doors in Brentwood depart from the conventional matt black commonly associated with steel-look designs. Our customers chose a classic white RAL 9010 matt finish for this door set. This choice brightens the interior and exterior spaces, complementing the existing rendered structural opening.
Matching white door hinges maintain a cohesive look, while a contrasting polished gold handle adds a touch of sophistication and warmth to the ensemble.
