Versatility of Accordion Doors

[Great Year]

Many people see accordion doors as old fashioned. On the contrary, they are very modern with a contemporary style. Accordion doors are very versatile in the sense they can be used for various things such as closet doors, a window shutter, a wardrobe or room dividers. They are a self contained system that does not require additional space to open them. This makes them one of the best space saving doors on the market. They make the perfect replacement for other sliding doors and can be found in vinyl as well as wood and glass. operable wall

Accordion doors are best used for almost any closet in your home. Because they are folding, they leave the doorway free of any obstacles that would ordinarily obscure entering a closet. When measuring for these doors, you don't have to be as precise in the dimensions as you would with other form fitting doors such as swing, bypass or bifold. Most of them are designed to fit almost any width of doorway. They span a width of between twenty four inches to forty eight inches with no additional panels or spacing needed.

Prices will vary depending on the materials used in their construction. The wood that some are made from is thin slats or panels of wood that are attached by vinyl hinges. This makes them flexible as well as rugged. They are intended for interior use only because they are not insulated or lined. They allow air to escape as well as enter the room or closet they enclose. As shutters, they prevent prying eyes from seeing in and will also keep the sun from heating your home in the summer.

The most popular use for these doors is for the bedroom closet. They offer a contemporary yet simple look with their sleek lines and simple design while concealing your wardrobe from visitors. Because they cover a wide range of widths, there is no need to have exact dimensions. You can also trim these doors according to your doorways height. They usually come in a standard height as well as width. They prices are very competitive with other styles of folding doors like the bifold doors. operable wall malaysia

Glass accordion doors have a vinyl seal that is flexible and allows the glass panels to gently fold one on top of the other. These make a great replacement for vinyl or wood room dividers. Although they are not one of the most popular doors, they are great for enclosing a sun room or patio. Because of the vinyl seal, they can be used on the exterior of a home as well as the interior.
