Exceptional performance meets clean design and durability.
The ability of a Western Window Systems’ Series 9500 Bi-Fold Door to completely open up to the outdoors is what makes it so unique. Designed to smoothly stack and fold against side walls, it creates a huge opening from corner to corner, connecting the indoors with the outside and expanding living space. Need everyday access? Opt for convenient single or double swing doors.
Thermally broken aluminum and dual-paned low-E glass make the Series 9500 energy efficient. And because it’s aluminum, it’s low maintenance, too. Sealed stainless steel ball bearing rollers allow for easy operation, even with extreme panel weights. Options such as flush and water barrier sills, inswing and outswing capabilities, and countless sizes, configurations, and finishes let you customize the Series 9500 Bi-Fold Door to your individual style.

Designed and Tested for Durability
Because we build and test our windows to last, you can enjoy your Western Window Systems product for years to come. Manufactured in the U.S., each of our product families is tested for air, water, and structural performance and certified by the NFRC (National Fenestration Rating Council) and AAMA (American Architectural Manufacturers Association).
Climate Ready Glass
The Series 9500 features dual-paned low-E glass for better energy performance. Glass can be customized in a variety of types, colors, and thicknesses for improved privacy, protection, and thermal efficiency.
Thermally Broken Aluminum
Thermally broken aluminum provides an insulating barrier that increases energy performance.
Concealed Locking System
Our bi-fold door includes a hidden stainless steel multi-point lock to secure its large panels, providing additional strength and protection. A keyed cylinder option is available.
Heavy Duty Hardware
For strength and durability, Western Window Systems uses stainless steel hardware for its door systems. Our stainless steel head load carriers and hinges are capable of handling panels weighing up to 264 pounds. Bottom load carriers and hinges can accommodate door panels weighing up to 176 pounds.

The Series 9500 Bi-Fold Door System is available in a multitude of configurations, with panels up to 42' wide and 12' tall (not to exceed 264 pounds per panel). Sixteen-panel maximum, eight in each direction. For additional flexibility, the Series 9500 can be specified to swing inward or outward.
Series 9500 Bi-Fold Window
Panoramic Views Meet Remarkable Performance
Perfect for entertaining places like patios and decks, opening up a kitchen to the outdoors, or creating a relaxing window seat to a spectacular view, the Series 9500 Bi-Fold Window makes any room look and feel more spacious. Designed to smoothly stack and fold against side walls, it creates a huge opening from corner to corner, connecting the indoors with the outside.
Sealed stainless steel ball bearing rollers allow for easy operation. And because it’s aluminum, it’s low maintenance, too.
Water Barrier Sill
Designed for effectiveness in all climates, the water barrier sill safeguards against water intrusion while providing a tight seal. For bottom loading bi-fold doors, where the bottom of the door carries the majority of the weight, the interior leg is 2.51”. Thresholds are finished to match the frame color.
Flush Sill
When ease of entry is more important than climate performance, the flush sill can line up with most interior flooring for a smooth transition to the outdoors. On bottom loading bi-folds, the interior threshold height is 1.76”. Thresholds are finished to match the color of the frame.
Note: The flush sill is not warrantied against water penetration.
