Can you fit a shutter over bifold doors?
Yes. The shutter runs outside the folding doors in its own guides, so it does not interfere with them. Very wide bifolds are often split into two shutters on a centre post.

Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
