Unique Window Systems has launched a next generation version of its UniFold bi-fold door.
Mir Patel, aluminium operations manager, at Unique, explained: “The introduction of our new and improved UniFold bi-fold door is significant and especially given its launch comes in our 20th anniversary year. It demonstrates both the strength and unrelenting nature of our belief in ongoing product development.
“Unique may have seen considerable success over the last two decades, but we do not view that as a cause for complacency. Instead, we continue to invest into the evolution of our products to ensure they deliver optimum levels of performance, innovation and customer satisfaction.”
Reflecting this, Unique’s latest UniFold door offers a number of new and exciting benefits.
This includes super slim profiles with sightlines of just 107mm. Combined with generously sized sashes, which measure an impressive 1,200mm x 3,000mm.
The new version of UniFold also offers higher levels of energy efficiency. It delivers U-values of 1.4 W/m2K when combined with double glazing and of 1.1 W/m2K when fitted with triple glazing. This meets or exceeds the requirements of Approved Document Part L for both new build and refurbishment projects
To make installation even quicker and easier, Unique’s next generation UniFold doors also benefit from a new beading system where beads simply clip into place without the need for tools or time-consuming wedge gaskets.
Installation is further simplified by a new toe & heel device. This enables glass adjustment after fitting without the need to deglaze the sash.
Additional features include an integrated cill for increased protection from the elements as well as a choice of different sized universal aluminium cills which are compatible with most systems.
The new version of UniFold also includes the option of a floating corner post. This enables right-angled doors, including the return, to open out fully with the opportunity to include a fixed corner for the ultimate ‘wow’ factor.
