What Type of Door Shutters Are Available?
We offer full height bifold shutters fitted to the wall or frame surrounding your French doors or patio doors. The shutters sit in front of the door glass when closed, and fold back neatly to the sides when you want to use the doors or let in more light. They don't attach to or move with the door itself, so the door operates completely independently behind them.
While our bifold shutters can also be used alongside sliding doors and bifold doors, it's important to understand that they are fixed bifold plantation shutters fitted to the surrounding frame, not tracked shutters that slide or move with the door. They are opened and closed independently of the door itself. If you need a shutter fitted to a track, this product is not what you are looking for.
Why Choose Bifold Shutters for Doors?
A Far More Elegant Alternative
Vertical blinds are the traditional go-to for French and patio doors, but they offer very little in the way of style or flexibility. Full height plantation shutters are a significant upgrade in both aesthetics and practicality, framing the door opening beautifully and adding a timeless, architectural quality to the room.
Complete Light and Privacy Control
Like all our plantation shutters, door shutters give you precise control over light through the slats. Tilt them for partial light and privacy, close them fully for complete coverage, or fold the panels back entirely for an unobstructed opening and maximum light. All of this is independent of whether the doors themselves are open or closed.
Neat and Unobtrusive When Open
When folded back, the bifold panels stack compactly to the sides of the door opening, keeping the doorway clear.
Added Insulation and Privacy
Shutters add an effective insulating layer across the door glass, helping to reduce heat loss and drafts. When the slats are closed, they also provide a complete privacy screen, preventing visibility into the room from outside.
Things to Consider When Choosing Door Shutters
Our Shutters Are Fixed, Not Tracked
This is the most important thing to understand before ordering. Our shutters are mounted to the wall or frame around the door and operate independently of the door itself. They are not tracked shutters, they are not sliding shutters, and they do not follow the door when it opens. If you need a shutter that moves with the door or slides across a large opening on a track, this product is not what you are looking for.
Configuration and Panel Size
The number of bifold panels needed depends on the width of the door opening. Wider openings will require more panels to ensure the shutters fold back efficiently without any single panel being too wide. Uploading a photo of your doors with your order allows your shutter expert to advise on the best configuration for your specific opening.
Which Material?
For French doors and patio doors leading to an outdoor space, our waterproof vinyl ranges are worth considering as they are fully resistant to moisture and temperature variation. For more sheltered positions, hardwood is a beautiful and popular choice
