Folding doors are types of doors that fold open instead of swinging open like the normal ones do. It is for this reason that folding doors are ideal to use in areas of limited space or where you need to use the space right beside the door. While most folding doors come in the form of bifold doors, there are the multiple folding ones referred to as accordion doors as well.
Bifold doors are the most common types of folding doors that you will find in most homes. These are ideal for installation in spaces that are too small to fit an ordinary sized door. As such, you will find these types of doors being commonly used in laundry rooms, closets and pantries, as well as for separating two different rooms.
Folding Wood Bookcase
These bifold doors comprise of two narrow doors which are attached at the centre by a hinge. Bifolding doors, as they are also known, are installed along a track which enables them to slide open. Once opened, you may fold the two doors along the hinges and slide over them to one side. You may also use your bifold doors in pairs. In this case, two bi-fold doors will be placed together on a single track and once opened; each door will fold open on either side of this track.
On the other hand, the multi-folding doors are also referred to as accordion doors and these fold to one side, just as the bifold ones do. However, accordion doors consist of multiple panels which fold together in a manner similar to an accordion. Because of this unique design, multi-folding doors take up less space than their bifolding counterparts. What's more, this design entails that thin materials are used in their construction. You may have your accordion doors either rolled away from one point to another or installed onto a track.
Another option for your bifolding doors would be to go for the acoustical ones whose main purpose is to provide insulation against noise. Acoustical versions are typically found in office buildings and churches or in other areas which require soundproofing - for instance where speeches and presentations are given. Even though acoustical doors do provide a certain degree of soundproofing, they cannot guarantee this seeing as they are constructed from thin materials.
For your exterior doors, you could also go for the bifolding versions that are made from glass. The glass bifolding versions resemble your traditional French doors but allow for space saving as they can be folded away. With glass folding doors, you are able to enjoy unobstructed view of the outdoors, as well as make use of as much space as you can in your home.
For a more creative way to store your book collection, you may opt for these types of door bookcases. These bifolding door bookcases resemble the traditional bookcase but only when you take a closer look will you discover that these doors are in fact able to fold up and reveal rooms, closets or even wall safes.
