Bi-fold and folding shop fronts in South Yorkshire

Wind exposure differs across Yorkshire and the Humber, so we match the sill, seals and track to the position of your South Yorkshire frontage.

Bi-fold doors open across a restaurant frontage

Installing a bi-fold in South Yorkshire usually means taking out the old front, and teams working across Yorkshire and the Humber can plan that around your trading hours. Tables outside may need a licence, so check with the local authority covering South Yorkshire before planning around a fully open frontage.

What do we offer in South Yorkshire?

Top-hung trackThe weight is carried from the head, so the structure above has to be level and strong enough.
Stack both waysPanels split and fold to each side, which helps when the entrance needs to stay central.
Bottom-rolling trackThe weight runs on the floor track, which can suit older openings with a weak head. The track needs regular cleaning.

How much does it cost in South Yorkshire?

Expect £3,495 to £8,995 ex VAT per opening. A folding front lets a South Yorkshire cafe or bar open to the street in good weather and still close up securely at night. Your written quote shows travel, access and any out-of-hours work.

Common questions

Do you cover all of South Yorkshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across South Yorkshire, including Barnsley, Doncaster, Maltby, Mexborough.

How many panels does a bi-fold front need?

That depends on the width of the opening, with panels usually around 700 to 1,100 mm wide. An odd number of panels lets one work as a single traffic door for daily use, so you do not have to fold the whole front.

Are bi-fold shop fronts secure?

Yes, when they are closed with multi-point locks and hinges that cannot be lifted out from outside. Each panel locks to its neighbour, with shootbolts into the head and floor. For higher-risk premises, laminated glass or an internal grille adds further protection.

Will a folding front let in draughts?

A well-fitted system seals when closed, using gaskets and a weather bar at the sill. The trade-off is at the threshold: a flatter track is easier for wheelchairs but less weather resistant. We design the sill around the exposure of your frontage and any drainage needed.
