What Is Folding Door?
Folding door, also known as bi-fold or foldable door, is a door that is designed with multiple panels that fold and stack neatly to one side.
This allows a wider opening space, making the area feel more open, brighter and better ventilated. Folding doors are also space-saving, stylish, and suitable for connecting indoor and outdoor areas such as balconies, patios, living rooms, shopfronts and partition areas in Singapore.
Types of Folding Doors
We offer 3 types of folding door systems to suit needs and usage requirements:
- 1. Slim folding door
- 2. Euro profile folding door (slide & fold)
- 3. Heavy duty folding door
1. Slim Folding Door
Our slim folding door is designed with a thinner frame (thickness approx 20mm (0.8 inch)) to create a cleaner and less bulky look. It is a popular choice for balconies, living rooms, partition areas and other spaces where a brighter and more spacious appearance is preferred.
Key Features of Slim Folding Door
Thinner Frame, Bigger View Area
Compared to traditional folding doors with thicker borders, slim folding doors have a thinner frame that allows more glass area. This provides a wider and clearer view of the outside, with least door obstruction.
When fully stacked, the slimmer door panels also take up less space, helping to create a wider entrance opening for more convenient access.
More View, More Light
Because the frame is slimmer, it does not block as much natural light. This allows more sunlight to enter the room, making the space look brighter and giving it a more spacious and comfortable feel.
Modern And Stylish Appearance
Slim folding doors are popular for modern homes and offices because of their sleek and elegant design. The thinner frame creates a clean and contemporary look that blends well with different interior styles.
2. Euro Profile Folding Door (Slide & Fold)
Euro profile folding doors are built for smoother operation, higher durability and better sound reduction performance. The heavy duty Euro profile structure (frame thickness approx 70mm (2.75 inch)) provides stronger stability and reliability for long term high usage in homes, offices and commercial spaces.
Key Features of Euro Profile Folding Door
Slide & Fold, Flexible & Easy To Use
Our Euro Profile Folding Glass Door is designed for smooth and convenient daily operation. Unlike traditional folding doors that only fold panel by panel, this system allows the door panels to slide completely before folding neatly to the side, creating a wider and more open entrance space.
For added flexibility, every 2 panels can also be customised to slide and fold separately, allowing users to partially open the door when needed instead of opening the entire system. This option is suitable for areas where different entrance sizes are required at different times, ranging from a small opening to the widest possible entrance. Available upon request.
High Durability for Usage
Our Euro profile folding glass door is one of the most durable folding door systems that we offer. Built with a heavy duty Euro profile aluminium frame, the door structure is stronger, thicker and more stable compared to standard folding doors.
Its heavy duty profile and roller system are specially designed to withstand frequent opening and closing, making it highly suitable for high usage areas such as living rooms, balconies, patios, offices and commercial spaces.
Sound Reduction
Our Euro profile folding glass door is designed with bottom tracks, rubber seals and mohair strips on all 4 sides to help reduce unwanted outside noise.
The tighter sealing system helps minimise sound gaps around the door panels, creating a quieter and more comfortable indoor environment. This is especially beneficial for homes or offices located near roads, traffic areas or noisy surroundings.
Besides sound reduction, the rubber and mohair sealing system also helps improve the overall door closing quality by reducing dust, wind drafts and rattling during operation.
3. Heavy Duty Folding Door
Heavy duty folding door (frame thickness approx 90mm (3.5 inch)) is one of the most economical folding door options, making it a practical choice for customers looking for a durable and budget friendly folding door system.
Key Features of Heavy Duty Folding Door
Budget & Economical
Our heavy duty folding door is one of the most affordable folding door options that we offer, making it a practical choice for customers looking for a durable folding door system at a budget economical price.
Despite its lower cost, the door is still designed with a strong and durable structure suitable for everyday usage. It offers a good balance between affordability, functionality and long term reliability, making it suitable for homes, offices, shops and various interior spaces.
Thick Frame for Strength and Durability
Our heavy duty folding doors are designed for customers who require a more robust and long-lasting door system. The thick frame provides reliable structural strength, making it suitable for daily use in homes or offices.

Balcony Folding Door for HDB, Condo and Landed Houses in Singapore
For balcony areas, outside view is usually one of the main priorities because balconies are designed for enjoying the outdoor scenery and natural lighting. At the same time, the folding door should also be strong and stable enough to withstand outdoor strong wind pressure without excessive shaking.

Recommended Folding Door Types
1. Euro Profile Folding Door
A suitable choice for balconies because it offers a good balance between outside view and strength. The frame is not overly thick, allowing for a larger glass area and better visibility while maintaining a strong and stable structure for windy conditions.
2. Heavy Duty Folding Door
Also suitable for balcony use. The thicker frame provides excellent stability and long term durability, although the larger frame results in slightly less glass area and outside view compared to Euro profile systems.
Kitchen Folding Doors & Interior Partitions in Singapore
For kitchen areas, folding doors are commonly installed between the kitchen and living hall to separate cooking activities from the main living space. Besides looking modern and blending nicely with the house interior, the door should also help reduce cooking smell from escaping into the living hall.

Recommended Folding Door Types
1. Slim Folding Door
A popular choice for kitchens due to its modern appearance, slim frame and larger glass area that make the space look brighter and more spacious. However, the bottom section usually has a small operating gap, so a small amount of cooking smell may still pass through.
2. Euro Profile Folding Door
Suitable for homeowners who prioritise better smell reduction. The system is designed with rubber and mohair seals around the door panels, helping the door close more tightly and minimise smell leakage into the living hall.
Why Folding Door is Better Than Sliding Door?
Folding doors can provide a much wider opening compared to sliding doors because the door panels fold and stack neatly to one side. This allows users to maximise the entrance space and create a more open connection between indoor and outdoor areas.
In comparison, standard sliding glass doors always require one or more fixed panels to remain in place, which limits the maximum opening width. However, sliding systems remain a practical alternative where there is no clearance space for stacked folding panels.
What type of glass are commonly used for folding doors?
1) Float Glass (Standard Glass)
What it is: Regular glass (often used when the panel is small or when cost is a key factor).
Common thickness: 5mm - 6mm (other thicknesses available).
Colours/ Finishes: Clear, tinted, frosted, and patterned options.
Typical use: Used for many interior door panels.
2) Tempered Glass (Safety Glass)
What it is: Safety glass that is stronger than standard float glass.
Common thickness: 5mm - 6mm (larger panels may use thicker glass).
Colours/ Finishes: Clear, tinted, frosted, patterned; can also be paired with designs like fluted glass (depending on availability).
Typical use: Very common for balcony doors, office partitions, and shop entrances, especially where there is higher traffic and frequent daily use.
3) Laminated Glass (Safety Glass)
What it is: Two layers of glass bonded with an interlayer. If cracked, the glass tends to stay held together.
Common thickness: 6.38mm and above (e.g., 6.38mm, 8.38mm, etc).
Colours/ Finishes: Clear, tinted, frosted, patterned options.
Typical use: Popular where extra safety, security, or better sound reduction is desired. It is also commonly used for bathroom/toilet doors when safety glass is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are folding glass doors waterproof and suitable for HDB balconies?
Our folding doors use mohair strips or waterproof rubber seals around all sides of the door panels. When the door is closed, these seals provide a tighter seal around the door panels to prevent water from seeping in.
For additional water protection, a bottom track can be added to the folding door system. For example, our Euro Profile Folding Door comes with a bottom track.
Do folding glass doors help reduce outside noise?
Yes, folding glass doors can help reduce outside noise, although the level of sound reduction depends on the folding door system, glass type and sealing around the door panels.
For better sound reduction, our Euro Profile Folding Door is designed with a bottom track, rubber seals and mohair strips around all 4 sides of the door panels. These help minimise sound gaps and reduce unwanted noise entering the room.
If you require a higher level of sound reduction, you may also explore our soundproof doors.
Do I need an HDB permit to install a folding glass door?
Installation of doors inside the house (eg. balcony entrance, kitchen or room partition) usually does not require HDB permit approval.
