Whether you’re updating your residential doors or adding a glass room to your property, bifolds open up rooms and create a seamless flow between spaces. When designing your bifolds, selecting the right colour for the internal and external frames impacts the overall finish. The shade should complement both the style and character of your property, so take time to pick the best option for the design.
Here are some of our top tips for choosing the right colour for your bifolds.
What’s the best colour for bifold doors?
There are multiple factors at play when finding the right bifold door design and colour. You’ll be influenced by your favourite interior styles, home décor and existing windows and doors. Some people may even wish to upgrade their windows at the same time to give greater flexibility about what bifold colours they can pick.
Classic colours are white, black and anthracite grey, providing neutral tones that match all brickworks and interiors without overpowering other dominant shades in the home. Bolder and alternative shades can be appealing if you want to complement existing home colour schemes or make a statement. For example, if all your walls are white, a splash of colour with bifolds can provide contrast and warmth within a space.
How can you make bifold doors look modern?
New bifold doors remain in fashion thanks to their beautiful appearance and high functionality. Aluminium bifold doors are one of the best solutions if you want modern aesthetics, allowing for slimline frames and minimal sightlines between door leaves.
If you’re struggling to find the right tone, dual shades could be a viable option for you, allowing you to create a different look inside and out. It’s a great solution if you’d like modern interiors with traditional outward aesthetics, such as heritage palettes or woodgrain finishes.
What should you look for in a bifold door?
If you’re planning a bifold door installation, it’s important to look for a supplier with excellent knowledge to guide you through the design process with ease, as there’s lots to consider. Look for a bifold range with plenty of options, such as Origin’s high-quality collections.
Origin produces bifolds in over 150 RAL colours, and you can opt for a matt, gloss or satin finish to provide a particular look and feel. The shade you pick can also be complemented by matching handle options or stainless-steel designs for a contrasting industrial look. These quality products are backed by exceptional functionality, including thermally-broken frames, secure locking and multiple bifold thresholds.
