Kolbe’s new Folding Door Systems maximize indoor-outdoor connectivity by providing up to 45 feet of unobstructed space and views. The units can be configured with up to eight panels per side, which fold back against each other to create an expansive, inviting opening. A specially-designed, thermal weep sill enhances the door’s energy efficiency, while optional, concealed hardware and architecturally-correct mortised hinges accentuate its traditional aesthetic.
Editors’ Comments: Folding and pocket patio door systems like this are among the most exciting products to hit the residential market. As outdoor living plays a larger role in design, products like these will be in high demand.
