How frameless bifolding doors improve open plan living spaces

Open-plan living in recent years has been one of the most popular ways of renovating the home.  Creating open plan living spaces may involve a new extension or knocking down walls on an existing property.

Open plan living has been enhanced with the use of large windows and folding doors. Our own frameless bifolding doors have enhanced many homes.  In creating a large living or dining space you can create a light, a sociable room and a flexible one.  Well designed open plan living spaces are also known to add value to a property for sale.

How to make internal space better with frameless folding doors.

Despite all the advantages of open plan living it’s not for everyone and it may actually have disadvantages. For example there’ll be less walls to position shelves or furniture.

Items left in other areas of the living space may show it as being cluttered. Those who have separated a space to create a home office may find it noisy and distracting.  A children’s play area may make the room look untidy.

With our frameless room dividers and folding doors, it is possible to retain all the light and feeling of space but have added flexibility when needed and the ability to close of areas of the space.

What glass doors can be used inside the home?

At Frameless Glass Curtains we offer a choice of frameless door products that can help make your open plan living spaces more comfortable and quiet when needed as well as create an extra room when required.

We offer a range of single and double hinged doors.  These are manufactured from high quality aluminium patch fittings with a choice of contemporary handles.  They can feature ultra low threshold or even no threshold at all.

For larger spaces our frameless bifolding doors are great to close off an entire wall or separate a conservatory.  These come with a very low threshold, a choice of door leaves and virtually unlimited colour choice. These are available as slide and turn doors, sliding and folding doors too.

You can choose from either single or double glazed doors, a choice of primary door leaves, doors that can open in or out and many other options.

We can even create corner screens incorporating our doors to provide a lobby area to a large hallway or closed off space to provide a quiet workspace.  At the same time there is no compromise on light transmission or loss of the open plan arrangement.

If you’d like more information on how our frameless hinged and folding doors can work inside the home, please contact us.

We also offer a full range of aluminium windows, bifolding and sliding doors,
and front doors as FGC Bespoke Aluminium.

What our customers say

We have been amazing our friends and family with our FGC since we had it installed a few weeks ago. Every ‘trade’ that is working on site has been fascinated and suitably impressed with the product and engineering. We are over the moon as it has really been the star of our home extension. Thanks too to the installers who were

Just wanted to say a big thank you for coming up to Manchester from Kent to service our doors. My wife and I appreciated the service and continue to be really pleased with them. Lots of friends comment on how lovely they look and the window cleaner took your card this week, he is thinking of calling you! I would happily recommend you to anyone considering having frameless glass curtains. If there is anyone in

We have had these doors for several months now and are very pleased with them. Our initial contact with the company was very positive, the structure and operation of the doors clearly explained. The installation was carried out very efficiently with no disruption and the installers were friendly, their work clean and tidy. Our friends have admired these frameless glass curtains and we would happily recommend them to anyone who was interested.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the team at FGC for great communication and assistance throughout, and a top job in the installation process and of course in providing a unique sleek product. Mr M,

As it happens, we are still sadly not in the house. We should be however at the end of February which will be great! I can however pretty much respond to the below as I have been able to test the doors. 1. Your performance was excellent from what has been reported by the builders. They mentioned that you were happy to leave you to complete the work and had no problems. They did unfortunately

We were very happy with the service offered from start to finish. The frameless glass doors are a perfect solution to our extension and have received many compliments.The workmen who installed the doors were courteous and efficient, the job completed in a few hours, we had a slight problem that needed attending to and this was resolved immediately. We would not hesitate to recommend this company and their wonderful products.

The installer was excellent. In spite of being let down by another member of the team he got on with with the job in a positive manner. Disruption was kept to a minimum and he cleared and tidied up. He demonstrated how to use the doors, ensured I knew how to operate them and answered any questions before he left. He is a credit to your company. Overall: I am very pleased with my frameless

The installation of our new doors was eagerly awaited and did not disappoint. The fitters arrived on time on the agreed installation date. All waste was removed and the installation area was left clean and tidy. The fitters demonstrated the use of the system including future self maintenance which was very useful. We are extremely pleased with the doors – they look fabulous and have opened up the lounge into the garden. Even when closed

We had been looking for ages for the solution to fill two large spaces leading from the house to our new Orangery. From the moment Gary showed us the product at Partridge Farm we knew it was just what we wanted. A year later and we are still delighted. We broke one of the glass handles the other day and they have just left after fixing a replacement FOC. Hows that for service?

Putting a frameless glass walls between our South facing lounge and dining room conservatories was one of the best things we have ever done in our house. When shut, they keep out the cold in winter and, most importantly, the heat on very hot summer days. When open during sunny winter days, the heat warms the whole house and reduces our heating bills significantly. FGC are a marvellous friendly company. Very efficient and a pleasure

We chose FGC because we wanted something unique to connect both garden and our new room. Unique design, simple flawless construction, ease of use and durable construction all fit perfectly with what we wanted. FGC further enhanced the fit with great service and on site installation, answering any further queries we had very quickly. 20150112 Mr

This is the first project I have completed with FGC and it will not be the last. From the original survey and quote, right through to final installation, the team at FGC have been tremendous. The communication and detail is outstanding, the quote was fair market competitive and the final result of the product in situ is absolutely outstanding. I have never seen a system like this before. The quality of the work is remarkable,
