Cutting Corners
Amazing views just got more dramatic. Jeld-Wen’s Exterior Folding Door System is now available in a 90-degree corner configuration that allows two sides of a room to be opened to the outdoors without the need for a structural corner post. Mounted to an overhead track, the door panels fold back accordion-style from the corner opening. When closed, beveled door edges and double weatherstripping seal the panels against the elements, and five-point locking hardware combines with drop bolts every fewpanels to provide ample security.
The door is available in wood and fiberglass in a variety of interior finishes. Door frames can be aluminum clad in colors to match the manufacturer’s windows. A structural engineer should determine the allowable expanse for a particular home. The manufacturer can provide door tracks up to 24 feet on each side of the opening.
