Folding Door
The Fumand Aluminum Folding Door combines imported thermal-break aluminum profiles with an upper suspension and recessed bottom guide rail system. Accommodating 3 to 16 folding leaves, it opens up to 95% of the wall span for an unobstructed indoor-outdoor living experience.
Key Features
Sound Insulation
Multi-chamber aluminum profiles and triple EPDM acoustic gaskets effectively block urban noise for a serene interior.
Thermal Insulation
Polyamide thermal-break strips and Low-E insulated glazing minimize heat transfer and reduce HVAC energy consumption.
Fire & Storm Resistance
High-strength architectural aluminum alloy withstands hurricane-force wind loads and provides non-combustible safety.
UV Protection
Laminated and solar-control glazing blocks up to 99% of harmful ultraviolet rays, protecting your family and interior furnishings.

Advantages & Technical Considerations
Advantages
- Maximum Panoramic Opening: Folds and stacks neatly to one or both sides, liberating over 90% of the structural opening.
- Flexible Leaf Combinations: Supports 3 to 16 panels (e.g., 3-3-0, 4-3-1, 5-5-0, 6-6-0) including a convenient daily traffic casement leaf.
- Effortless Gliding & Anti-Pinch Safety: Top-hung load-bearing rollers and bottom guide channels ensure smooth, finger-safe operation.
- Superior Airtightness: Multi-point locks and continuous EPDM gaskets across all folding joints block noise, dust, and rainwater.
Technical Considerations
- Requires stacking space at one or both ends of the opening when panels are folded.
