Bifold doors

I'm starting to look at bifold doors: 4x800mm x 2000mm, aluminium.

Anyone got bifolds? What's your opinion and would you recommend a supplier. I'm off tomorrow to McMullan and O'Donnell in Bedburb just to see what's on offer, but I certainly would appreciate suggestions about other suppliers in the Newry, Armagh, Lurgan, Tyrone area. Would also take a look at firms across the border.

As a matter of interest I ran a quote through an English firm about half an hour ago and it came just a few pence short of £5000. Would this be the sort of ball park figure they'd be talking about in the North?

As always many thanks for any info

Kevin

    A quick check with Tradepoint shows a 2095mm x 3595mm "Oak" set for around £3500
    So for a full aluminium set, I'd say you should allow around +20%

    Visited McMullan and O'Donnell today and got a quote just shy of £5000, an Italian inport, but also got the impression they weren't that interested in supplying bifolds.

    The salesguy certainly talked them down and was guiding me towards French doors!
