Schuco Bifolds - Serious about security

We already mentioned security but, as we’re so serious about it, we feel it’s worth mentioning again. Dutemänn bi-fold doors have been built with your security in mind. That’s why they only fit police-approved Secured by Design BSI kite-marked, multi-point locking cylinders on the main doors. These are backed up by concealed steel shoot-bolts on all the other panels, which engage into the top and bottom tracks therefore stopping an intruder simply lifting them from the casing – a problem with conventional patio-doors. And, if that weren’t enough, we also fit toughened safety-glass with internal beading which means the glass can’t be easily removed from the outside.
