Everything You Need to Know About Bifold Shutters
Bifold shutters, also known as folding shutters or folding plantation shutters, are a versatile and practical window and door treatment that stack neatly to one or both sides when open, making them an ideal choice for wider windows, French doors, patio doors and any opening where a standard hinged shutter panel would be impractical. They offer all the same benefits as traditional plantation shutters, precise light control, privacy, insulation and timeless style, with the added practicality of a folding mechanism that keeps the opening clear when the shutters are fully open.
Why Choose Bifold Shutters?
Full Light and Privacy Control
Like all our plantation shutters, bifold shutters give you complete control over light and privacy through the slats, independent of whether the panels are open or closed. You can tilt the slats for partial light, close them fully for privacy, or fold the panels back entirely for a completely unobstructed opening.
Clean and Streamlined
When folded back, bifold shutters stack into a neat, compact stack at the side of the window or door, leaving the opening completely clear. This is a significant advantage over curtains or blinds, which always leave some bulk at the sides.
Things to Consider When Choosing Bifold Shutters
Number of Panels
The number of panels in a bifold configuration depends on the width of the opening. Our team can advise on the best panel configuration for your specific window or door to ensure the panels stack efficiently and operate smoothly.
French Doors and Patio Doors
For door openings, it is important to ensure the shutter frame is configured to allow the door to open and close freely behind the shutters. Uploading a photo of your door with your order allows your shutter expert to advise on the best approach for your specific configuration.
