Measuring For 3 metre Bifold Doors

To measure bifold patio doors, follow these steps:

  1. Measure the width of the opening where you want to install the bifold doors. Measure from the inside of the left-hand frame to the inside of the right-hand frame at the top, middle, and bottom of the opening. Record the smallest measurement.
  2. Measure the height of the opening where you want to install the bifold doors. Measure from the floor to the top of the opening at the left, middle, and right. Record the smallest measurement.
  3. Determine the number of door panels you will need. Bifold doors typically come in pairs, so count the number of pairs you will need to cover the width of the opening. For example, if the opening is 12 feet wide, and each bifold panel is 2 feet wide, you will need 6 pairs of panels.
  4. Measure the width and height of each bifold panel. Measure from the inside of the left-hand frame to the inside of the right-hand frame for the width, and from the floor to the top of the panel for the height.
  5. Check the manufacturer's instructions for any additional measurements or requirements for installation, such as the depth of the frame or clearance needed for opening and closing the doors.

It's always a good idea to double-check your measurements before ordering or installing bifold patio doors to ensure a proper fit and optimal performance. If in doubt, consult with a professional installer or contact us for guidance.
