Wooden Folding Doors — Your Questions Answered
Materials & Construction
Q: What kind of wood do you use for wooden folding doors?
A: We manufacture our wooden folding doors from solid hardwood, either Meranti or Saligna. These timbers offer excellent durability, stability, and a natural grain that suits South African conditions.
Q: Do you supply wooden folding doors with glass?
A: We can supply wooden folding doors with or without glass, depending on your location and preference.
For projects outside Gauteng, we recommend supplying the doors without glass, as glass can break during courier transport. This allows you to source glass locally and glaze the doors on site.
Supplying the doors without glass also gives you full flexibility to choose your own glazing options, including clear, tinted, patterned, laminated, or double glazing.
Q: Do wooden folding doors include handles and locks?
A: Yes. We fit all wooden folding doors with quality aluminium pull handles and secure locking mechanisms, designed specifically for smooth and reliable folding door operation.
Q: What frame system do wooden folding doors use?
A: Our wooden folding doors use an adjustable timber frame that allows up to 20mm of adjustment. This design compensates for natural timber movement caused by humidity and supports long-term performance.
Hardware, Sealing & Security
Q: How do wooden folding doors achieve smooth operation?
A: The doors use a precision aluminium top guide that supports the door leaves and allows smooth, effortless folding during daily use.
Q: What type of sill do wooden folding doors use?
A: All wooden folding doors include a durable aluminium bottom sill, which:
-
Protects the timber from moisture and ground contact
-
Improves durability in exposed and high-traffic areas
-
Supports smooth operation over time
Q: How do wooden folding doors seal against the weather?
A: We fit our wooden folding doors with:
-
Weather seals
-
Rubber seals
-
Wool pile strips
These components work together to reduce drafts, dust, and moisture ingress while improving energy efficiency.
Q: What locking system do wooden folding doors use?
A: Wooden folding doors use a hook lock and latch locking system, which improves security and keeps the doors firmly closed.
Installation & Care
Q: How should I store and prepare wooden folding doors before installation?
A: Before installation:
-
Store the doors vertically, under cover, on a dry and well-ventilated surface
-
Treat all six sides of the doors, including rebates and beadings, with your chosen wood treatment
-
Remove the face cover on the top of the frame to seal all timber surfaces properly
Q: Can I paint or stain wooden folding doors?
A: Yes. You can paint or stain the doors to suit your design.
Avoid very dark exterior colours, such as black, as excessive heat can damage the timber and void the warranty.
Q: What should I check before installing wooden folding doors?
A: Before installation:
-
Confirm the doors match your order and inspect them for defects
-
Report any issues within 24 hours of delivery
-
Measure diagonals, verticals, and horizontals to confirm the frame is square and level
-
Ensure the doors fit the opening without forcing
Q: What should I consider during installation?
A: When installing wooden folding doors:
-
Ensure external sills slope away from the doors to prevent water pooling
-
Avoid installing the doors flush with external surfaces
-
Install the doors level and square, with beading on the outside
Glazing Options
Q: Do wooden folding doors support double glazing?
A: Yes. Wooden folding doors support double glazing and other glazing options, including clear, tinted, patterned, laminated, and specialised glass.
Q: What type of glass should I use?
A: Use only laminated or toughened safety glass. In addition:
-
Allow a 3mm to 6mm tolerance around the glass
-
Place a plastic weatherproof spacer beneath the glass
-
Seal using neutral silicone or linseed oil-based putty where required
