Bifold doors provide a unique challenge for a blinds fitter. With multiple moving sections, specific bifold door blinds and very careful fitting are required to avoid obstructing them – thankfully, Expression Blinds is up to the challenge!
With INTU Micro blinds from Expression Blinds, you’ll be able to fully open your bifold doors with the blinds at any level of openness. These blinds are housed on the window frame itself and have a super-low profile which allows free movement of the doors, unlike other blinds types.
INTU Micro blinds are our favourites for bifold doors, but we can fit whatever you want – your doors are a big feature in the room, so draw attention to them however you want!
Our expert fitters will be happy to talk you through the available blinds types, colours and materials to make sure you get the perfect blinds for your doors!
Perfect Fit Blinds & INTU Micro Blinds For Bifold Doors
While there are many blinds types available that would work with bifold doors, the profiles for many of them mean that the doors couldn’t be fully opened once they’re installed, making it harder to use your doors. At Expression Blinds, we avoid this problem by using INTU Micro blinds in your bifold doors!
These blinds are very similar to perfect fit blinds or ordinary INTU blinds, but they have a much slimmer profile. The entire blinds assembly clips on to your window pane within the frame, and doesn’t project out as far as the window frame does, meaning that it can’t get in the way when you’re opening or closing your doors!
These blinds are available in a wide range of materials, so they’re perfect whether you’re looking for a blackout blind or something to filter the sunlight, and they clip onto the window frame itself without screws or nails, so there’s no damage to your bifold doors!

Why Choose Blinds For Bifold Doors?
Why choose blinds for bifold doors? There are plenty of reasons – while curtains may be easier, and leaving the doors completely uncovered may be easier still, neither of those are great options for such a feature as bifold doors.
Without curtains or blinds, you won’t be able to control the light coming through the doors – and bifold doors provide a lot of glass for that light to get in through! – so you’ll be at the mercy of the notoriously unpredictable British sun. You’ll also have to rely on the window pane alone for insulation.
However, curtains aren’t much better – why hide such a great room feature? Curtains can’t be used at the same time as the doors, either, so you’ll always have to choose one or the other. However, with blinds, you can have both!
Blinds fitted to the doors allow you to control light into the room, provide better insulation and privacy, can be customised to suit your design needs, and all while still allowing you to use the doors at the same time!

At Expression Blinds, we will never employ a commission-based salesperson. We think that the quality of our work should be allowed to speak for itself, and never want to pressure a customer into making a decision that’s not perfect for them. That means that we start all work with a free consultation, no strings attached, and you’ll never face any pressure to choose a particular option – our blinds fitters are dedicated only to finding the best option for you, no matter what that is!
Once you’ve contacted us by calling us or sending us a message on our Contact Us page, we can sort out a date and time that suits you to send out one of our expert blinds fitters. Once they’re there, the fitter can take careful measurements of your bifold doors. This helps make sure that we’ll be able to provide a perfect fit on your blinds!
They’ll also be able to talk you through all of the available options – not just for blinds but for materials and colours, and non-blinds options like window films or curtains too, so that you know exactly what’s available to you and can make the best possible decision for your needs! They’ll be able to expert advice, and will then provide a written quote on the same day, so you’ll know exactly what the cost will be before any work starts. Once that’s all done, it’s time for us to get to work!
