The KAT 5000 ‘Visofold’ system has proven itself over 10 years of manufacture. KAT UK only make high-end bespoke aluminium products to customer’s individual specifications.  The 5000 features a floating-sliding mullion which enables the door to move very smoothly and easily. Over 90% of the glazed screen can be opened.
Our Aluminium door frames reduce heat loss by using a polyamide bridge, or barrier, within the specially designed thermally broken aluminium section. The polyamide material has very high heat-transfer resistance and acts as a barrier to heat transfer from the interior face of the frame to the outside. Combined with double glazing (with options for energy-efficient glass) and efficient woolpile weather-sealing, aluminium bi-folding doors are thermally efficient and help to reduce heating costs.
Supplied unglazed. The frames take 28mm glazing as standard or you can specify up to 32mm to suit triple glazing or internal blinds.
Bifolding doors have the option of folding back internally or externally, with a wide choice of configurations.
Standard threshold height is 63mm. Low threshold option for ease of access of 30mm is available.
We use Sobenco high security multi-point stainless steel locking mechanisms. Shoot bolt locks and internal beading all make important contributions to the security of the doors.
KAT Aluminium products are available in a huge range of polyester powder coated (RAL) paint colours and special finishes, including dual colour, natural-looking wood-grains and metallic paint options. All paint finishes carry a 25 year guarantee.
We can also make other doors and windows in aluminium to match the bifold doors, we are happy to discuss and help you specify any individual requirements.
