At Sandymount Windows & Doors, we’re proud to install Origin bifold doors, an industry-leading product renowned throughout the industry, which we’ll expand on below.
An introduction to Origin bifold doors
We’re absolutely thrilled to offer Origin bifold doors throughout Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, North Wiltshire and the surrounding areas including Bristol. These spectacular door systems represent the gold standard in luxury home improvements.
For those unfamiliar with bifold doors, they’re ingenious space-saving solutions that fold and stack against one another like an accordion when opened. This creates a completely unobstructed opening between your home and garden: Imagine your entire back wall disappearing at the gentle push of a handle! They’re perfect for rear extensions, conservatories, or anywhere you want to blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living.
Origin bifold doors come in three stunning collections: the ultra-slim OB-36 Soho range with heritage steel-look aesthetics, the contemporary OB-49 with minimal sightlines, and the robust OB-72 for larger openings. You can choose configurations from intimate single doors right up to magnificent eight-panel installations. Whether you prefer them opening inwards or outwards depends entirely on your space and preferences.
The colour possibilities are virtually endless too, with over 150 RAL colours including sophisticated options like anthracite grey, natural oak and striking dual-colour combinations. Every Origin door we install is completely made-to-measure, ensuring a perfect fit every time.
The benefits of bifold doors
Bifold doors offer transformational benefits that extend far beyond their stunning visual impact.
Spectacular views of nature and the great outdoors
There’s something magical about removing the barriers between your home and garden. Bifold doors create an uninterrupted panoramic view of your outdoor space, allowing you to enjoy the changing seasons, watch children play safely in the garden, or simply admire your landscaping from the comfort of indoors. It’s like having a living, breathing artwork that changes throughout the day.
Perfect solution for entertaining and hosting
When it comes to hosting dinner parties or family gatherings, bifold doors are absolute game-changers. They effectively double your usable space by seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor areas. Guests can flow naturally between spaces, making even modest homes feel palatial. Summer barbecues become effortless affairs with easy access for food service and mingling.
Flooding your home with natural light
Nothing transforms a room quite like abundant natural light. Bifold doors feature expansive glazed panels that act like enormous windows when closed, bathing your living spaces in beautiful daylight. This not only reduces electricity costs but also creates a more positive, uplifting atmosphere, which is especially important during Britain’s darker winter months. After all, natural light exposure is scientifically proven to boost your mood, productivity, and improve sleep quality, so bifold doors are an investment that your entire family will benefit form.
Space-saving design for modern living
Unlike traditional French doors that swing into your room or garden, bifold doors stack neatly to one side when opened. This means you can place furniture closer to the opening without worrying about door clearance, maximising both indoor and outdoor space efficiency.
Origin and the benefits of origin bifold doors
Origin stands as Britain’s premier luxury door manufacturer, combining innovative UK design with precision manufacturing. Their reputation for excellence has made them the preferred choice for discerning homeowners who refuse to compromise on quality.
Aluminium excellence with slim, elegant frames
Origin’s premium grade aluminium construction delivers exceptional strength whilst maintaining beautifully slim sightlines. Unlike cheaper alternatives, Origin uses only prime profiles, ensuring superior durability and finish quality. The elegant slim frames maximise your glazed area for stunning views whilst maintaining structural integrity.
Outstanding thermal performance and energy efficiency
With certified U-values as low as 0.28, Origin bifold doors offer exceptional thermal performance. Their sophisticated polyamide thermal breaks prevent heat transfer, keeping warmth inside during winter and maintaining cool temperatures in summer. This translates directly into reduced energy bills and year-round comfort, a crucial consideration given today’s rising energy costs.
Extensive colour choice and customisation options
Choose from over 150 RAL colours with matt, satin and gloss finishes available. Popular choices include sophisticated anthracite grey, classic white, and striking dual-colour combinations that complement both interior and exterior décor. Every door is powder-coated for long-lasting colour stability and weather resistance.
Complete configuration flexibility
Origin doors accommodate everything from intimate single-door installations to impressive eight-panel configurations. Doors can open inwards or outwards depending on your space and preferences, with panel widths ranging from compact 1.5-foot options up to generous 4-foot panels for maximum impact.
Premium handle selection and hardware
Choose from elegant stainless steel or aluminium handle ranges, with certain models available in any RAL colour for perfect coordination. Every handle is exhaustively cycle-tested to ensure flawless functionality that mirrors the doors’ exceptional performance.
Innovative threshold options
Origin offers both weathered and non-weathered threshold choices. Non-weathered options provide level floor finishes for seamless indoor-outdoor transitions, whilst weathered thresholds can be recessed into flooring for minimal step-height whilst maintaining weather protection.
Hurricane-rated weather resistance
Origin bifold doors are among the select few to pass Florida’s rigorous High Velocity Hurricane Zone testing without sacrificing thermal performance. This exceptional weather resistance provides complete confidence in Britain’s unpredictable climate conditions.
Uncompromising security features
The sophisticated 8-point locking system incorporates linear bolts for smooth operation and maximum compression, plus deep-throw security hooks for ultimate protection. Anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-drill and anti-bump cylinder technology ensures comprehensive security that meets the latest security standards.
