Euro-Wall produces both residential and commercial exterior and interior folding door systems for placement in structures anywhere in the world. Euro-Wall Folding Doors expands the available options for folding door placements, whether new construction, retrofit, or remodeling of existing structures. Euro-Wall Folding Doors specializes in High Velocity Wind and Hurricane Zones (HVHZ) and coastal packages as well as standard climate options. In addition to our folding doors, we also produce sliding doors, and French doors to meet the tough and stringent building codes that coastal authorities require.
This Section includes Euro-Wall interior glass folding doors and interior sliding doors, which allows for separation of space for privacy when needed. The features of Euro-Wall bi-folding doors and sliding doors in a commercial or office setting helps to utilize space in an efficient and flexible manner which allows for form and function.
