Bi-fold briefs vary from 3-pane rear extensions to 5-pane garden-room walls. Crossrail at Romford has shifted the local market and pushed extension activity hard across RM1–RM4. We're seeing more single-storey rear extensions wanting wide bi-fold openings — typically 4-pane in anthracite grey aluminium. Survey slots typically diaried inside five working days for Romford. London Borough of Havering handles building control. Certass notification is included on every job. **Housing stock we work with here:** Edwardian terraces, 1930s semis, large interwar detached around Gidea Park and Emerson Park. Our vans are around Romford Crossrail station, Raphael Park, the A12 corridor most weeks, so survey and aftercare visits in Romford are easy to diarise. Why Us ## Why Romford homeowners choose us for bi-folds ### Bi-fold specialists in Romford leading aluminium systems aluminium systems installed weekly in Romford. Premium aluminium bi-folds are our single largest product line — not a sideline. ### Own in-house fitting team The same Certass-trained crew on every Romford install — no agency labour, no rotating sub-contractors. They are part of our small in-house team — no agency labour. ### Survey within stated window Quote slots run 7am–8pm seven days. We hold capacity specifically for RM1–RM7 enquiries so you're not waiting weeks. ### Itemised written quote Frames, glass, fitting and disposal listed separately. The number on the page is the number you pay — no surprise extras after install. ### Threshold detailing done properly Bi-fold tracks have to be perfectly level and properly DPM'd. We get this right at survey — it's the single biggest cause of long-term callbacks if it's wrong. ### 10-year workmanship guarantee Every Romford install — written into your quote, separate to manufacturer warranty. Aftercare adjustments included for the first 12 months. What goes wrong ## Bi-fold problems we get called out to in Romford ### Bi-fold tracks fouling on uneven thresholds Most Romford bi-fold callbacks we get asked to fix are tracks that weren't shimmed level at install. Once a track's twisted, the doors won't sit square. We level and DPM every threshold at survey, before doors are ordered. ### Underspecified pane sizes Aluminium bi-folds can run pane sizes most installers won't quote — but only with the right system and the right glass. Going too small for the opening costs you light and visual width. We size to the opening, not to a default catalogue. ### Cheap PVC bi-folds in large openings PVC bi-folds work in small openings but the frames are bulky and the pane size is restricted. For most Romford rear extensions, aluminium gives slimmer sightlines and a 25–30-year frame life — usually the right call. ### Hardware corrosion from coastal/exposed sites Marine-grade hardware matters for any Romford install with significant exposure. We specify upgraded rollers and locks where the site demands it — standard hardware doesn't last in the wrong location. Process ## How a Romford bi-fold install runs 1. 01 ### Free survey We measure the opening, check the threshold and the lintel, and talk through pane counts and stacking direction on site. 2. 02 ### Configuration & spec Pane split, stacking side, traffic door position, RAL frame colour, glass spec and threshold type — all confirmed in writing. 3. 03 ### Manufacture Frames are made to your surveyed sizes. We confirm the install date once they leave the factory. 4. 04 ### Installation Old doors out, track laser-levelled and DPM'd, frames set square, every panel tested through its full fold before we leave. 5. 05 ### Sign-off & guarantee Operation walk-through, Certass notification within 30 days, and a 10-year workmanship guarantee in writing.
