Open your home to the outdoors with bifold patio doors

Bi-folding patio doors blend with a variety of outdoor spaces. Patios, backyards, swimming pools, outdoor kitchens, decks, and balconies are some of the places that can benefit from a folding glass wall. Infinity Bi-Fold Patio Doors can span 22 feet wide and let you better capture beautiful backyard views. If you have a large patio area and outdoor furniture, patio bi-fold doors extend your indoor and outdoor spaces without interruption. Bi-fold doors leading to pool areas fit seamlessly so you can enjoy pool days inside and outside. Balcony bi-fold doors work well in urban areas to create unique spaces you can enjoy during picturesque sunny days.

Create a bold statement with a folding glass wall

With their expansive viewing area, folding glass walls make a statement. The view through bi-fold patio doors can serve as the perfect background for a living room. A folding glass wall offers wide, uninterrupted views, and brings an abundance of natural light. Adding daylight to a living room or a kitchen can invigorate the space. The additional light can make the space larger and help you enjoy dining al fresco in your kitchen.

Why choose bifold patio doors for a movable glass wall

You can achieve a moveable glass wall look with sliding glass patio doors but bi-fold doors have several advantages over sliding patio doors. The added width of bi-fold patio doors offers bigger views. Plus, the panels stack on top of each other on patio bi-fold doors when opened for a wide opening and freer movement between the indoors and outdoors. When closed, bi-fold doors enhance views with additional panels for more expansive scenes.

Design options for your folding glass wall

Infinity Bi-Fold Doors offer design flexibility to suit your home’s style. We offer seven exterior finish options and five interior finish choices, including our EverWood® interior finish, which replicates the look of a wood patio door. We have 28 different configuration options for our folding glass wall. Plus, you can choose between a uni-directional bi-fold door where the panels slide to one direction, or you can choose a bi-parting option where the doors open in the middle and slide to each side. You have the option of a two-panel bi-fold patio door up to a seven-panel bi-fold door for maximum views.

Frequently asked questions

The cost of folding patio doors depends on the size you choose and the design options you pick. An Infinity consultant can explore all the possibilities with you to put together a detailed quote.

Folding glass doors are worth it to make your house pop. They add design flair and serve as a centerpiece to a room. They enhance indoor-outdoor living by expanding the space of each area. The expansive views and infusion of natural light make them an attractive option for you to consider for your home.

One of the disadvantages of bi-fold doors people cite is their large size. While people tend to choose big bi-fold doors, Infinity features two-panel bi-fold patio doors, perfect for almost any space.
