Tadcaster Road

This stunning kitchen extension in York truly showcases the benefits of aluminium bi-folding doors. The huge facade of glass is 2.4 metres high creating huge panoramic glass walls that ensure all the doors frames look sleek, slender and allow maximum natural light into the property.

It is clear looking at the stunning photographs of this property that this is an architect-designed extension. The kitchen blends into a huge open plan living and dining area, containing three separate areas that can all be opened out to the garden. The cool anthracite grey finish of the doors and windows always looks stunning against cream render, but this is complemented further by the cedar cladding and light fittings above the doors, and the matching coloured fascia adding a contemporary finishing touch to the flat roof extension. The experts at GIA-MAC Architects also did a wonderful job with the elevated patio area centralized to the main bi-folds leading out onto the grass garden.

We manufactured the front door and all of the windows throughout this property in York, but it is the rear extension which is undoubtedly the location where our products are best showcased. There are three bi-folding doors spanning the full width of the property. Two-panel bi-folding doors both at 2400mm wide sit at either end of the property with picture windows meeting at the corner forming a glazed return back to the huge six-metre folding door that dominates the rear of the extension. The four steel posts that support this huge extension have all been cloaked with bespoke aluminium pressings, which has created a cohesive look to the whole installation, seamlessly connecting the various door and window products across the elevation.

We love this installation, it has been superbly designed by GIA-MAC Architects and fitted to the highest standards by ourselves. We carry out installations like this all over the UK which is why we have replicated several installations of this type in our showrooms.

Our showrooms in Glasgow, Redhill, Romford and our new Leeds showroom all boast displays containing our premium XP View bi-fold doors installed around stunning kitchens so if you are planning a new kitchen extension then our showrooms are the perfect place to visit for inspiration and information.
