Bi-fold doors

While I'm posting here I'd be particularly interested in hearing from members living in Northern Ireland. That said onwards!

I'm in the early stages of planning an upgrade and expansion of my current kitchen into a kitchen come diner area.

One of the ideas my architect has suggested to me is the inclusion of a large exterior glass bi-fold door. We're talking here of something in thr region of about 13 ft in length, which I must admit seems very big to me. I'll not be sure of the actual size until I see detailed drawings

A small time builder I know has advised me to be careful for while he hasn't dealt with these doors himself he has heard that after about four years or so problems with the sliding mechanism can occure

Has any member had experience, positive or negative, re these type of doors, and as mentioned above I'd be interested in hearing from NI members

As always your opinions are appreciated

Kevin
