Our all-new Soho Collection epitomises the pinnacle of luxury and style. The sought after steel-look, seamlessly merges cutting-edge design and ultra-slim sightlines with unparalleled functionality.
Reviving the passion that originally drove people to love bifolds, and featuring large panes of glass and slim sightlines, the Contemporary Collection is a suite that offers the perfect combination of refined engineering and expert manufacturing.
Regardless of your chosen Collection, all our Doors are handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail. Both Collections redefine the standards of elegance, making a bold statement in any architectural setting.
The design priority for our in-house R & D Team has always been to ensure that all our products offer a best-in-class performance, whilst sourcing, designing and manufacturing sustainably. As a result of this, you can be assured of exceptionally thermally efficient systems, helping you do your bit for the environment, and tomorrow’s generation.
Our artisan aluminium bifold doors provide a completely uninterrupted view when open, allowing flexibility to enjoy indoor and outdoor spaces as one.

Whether you have a period home, new build, unconventional property or quaint cottage, there’s a bi-fold which will complement your home and allow you to enjoy it in a completely new way.
Created bespoke to ensure you can make the most of your space, the Origin bi-fold Collections range from one to twelve door sets. Individual doors can be manufactured as narrow as 400mm, as wide as 1,200mm and as tall as 3,025mm. You can choose how they open and close – whether they fold in or out, and how they slide – to meet your exact needs.
Complementing the rest of the Origin Home Collection, our bi-fold doors create a harmonious look with existing door and window systems – right down to the ultra-slim profiles. The large expanses of glass sit within an ultra-strong aluminium profile, and you can choose the OB-36+ (Soho Collection), or the OB-36+, OB-49 or OB-72 (Contemporary Collection), each with their own individual characteristics to suit different styles.
The key differences between the bi-fold collections are the sightlines they achieve. In the table below, we run into the performance and differences between them.
| OB-36+ | OB-49 | OB-72 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sightline | OB-36+ 36mm | OB-49 49mm | OB-72 72mm |
| U-Value | OB-36+ Up to 0.78W/m2K | OB-49 Up to 1.1W/m2K | OB-72 Up to 1.1W/m2K |
| Secured By Design | OB-36+ Awaiting certification | OB-49 | OB-72 |
| Guarantee | OB36+, OB-49 & OB-72 Standard: Up to 20-years Marine Environment: Up to 10-years (frame); up to 5-years (hardware) | ||
Creating that truly seamless link between your home and outside space is all in the threshold. We recommend a weathered threshold, which can be sunk into the floor. It leaves a minimal lip but provides a protective weathertight seal.
Non-weathered options offer a level floor finish and create a seamless transition between the inside and out. Non-weathered options are largely recommended for internal usage.
An intelligently engineered short wheelbase carriage assembly with four wheels, manufactured from a high-grade acetal, guides the doors along the track seamlessly, enabling them to open and close with ease. It’s quality you can see, feel and admire.
