Make more use of space with folding doors
There are often occasions when it would simply be more functional to have separate rooms instead of large open plan areas in the home, and this is where the folding door comes into its own.

When open, the door is discreet and will not take up any of your living space. However, folding silently and effortlessly these stylish doors can easily be closed to instantly create the privacy and practicality of a separate room, perfect for lounge dining rooms and any other through room in the home.

Folding door makes the link
Linking your home to the conservatory, porch or garage with a folding door makes a great deal of sense. Not only does it give you the same convenience, privacy and security as a normal door, but it also allows you to make better use of the space in your home.

The Prestige folding , is perfect for this type of application. Luxurious in appearance, the Prestige comes in a white, white ash or oak finish and comes complete with a lock for security.

Taking up no precious floor space when open, the door folds back unobtrusively to really make extensions, conservatories and porches part of the home. When closed however it assumes all the qualities of a normal hinged door, giving you all the privacy you want.

Quick and easy to fit yourself, the Prestige folding door measures 212 x 85cm as standard, and is thus amply dimensioned. And it can easily be cut to fit where required or extra panels ordered to accommodate up to 4m door width if desired.

Application
The natural warmth and ambiance of wood veneer folding partitions makes them especially suited to prestige offices, clubs and community centres, and doctors' surgeries.

There are three types of timber partition available - the 'Original', the 'Crystal' and the 'Acoustic Special'.

All folding partitions have a core of solid fibre board covered in a choice of twelve wood veneers including oak, beech and ash. The 'Original' partition has an attractive all-over wood veneer; the 'Crystal' has translucent or frosted acrylic panels set into the partition; and the 'Acoustic Special' incorporates a layer of sound insulating material to achieve a rating of Rw33dB.

Specification
The range of wood finished partitions has been successfully used in a range of interiors around the UK and recent examples illustrate their popularity for particular applications.

In the health sector the wood folding partitions have been used to good effect to provide temporary division between various departments. This has been the case at several hospitals including the York Health Services NHS Trust and The Medical Centre in West London, where oak and beech veneer finishes have been specified. Others have also chosen the glazed Crystal and Acoustic options.

The wood partitions also have a following amongst golf and country clubs. For instance, on Anglesey at the Bull Bay Golf Club, and in Swindon at the Wrag Barn Golf and Country Club. The folding partitions have been used to seperate the restaurant from the bar area, yet when folded back, providing a completely open function room for other purposes. Here teak and American white oak finishes have been used respectively.

Wood finish partitions find favour too with boutique shopping facilities. At St David's Hall theatre and a conference hall in Cardiff, (pictured here) the Crystal folding partitions in an ash finish provide a warm and attractive means of opening and closing off a gift shop adjacent to the main foyer. This wood partition matches the wood flooring, stacks back compactly and allows visitors to see into the shop when closed.

Colours and finishes Finishes include: hardwood veneer, melamines and painted.
