Design

The incredible design of the Series 9550 Bi-Fold Door makes any project stunning. A 2.25″ x 3.5″ stile provides more glass and natural light. A concealed stainless-steel, multi-point lock secures panels while staying out of sight. And a frame and sill depth of 4.50″ allows for a clean mull into nearly any wall condition.

The partially open bi-fold doors eliminate the barrier between the outside entertaining space and the living room.

Operation

Sealed, stainless-steel ball bearing rollers make the Series 9550 Bi-Fold Door easy to operate. 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.

Configurations and Sizes

Western Window Systems’ Series 9550 Bi-Fold Door is available in a multitude of configurations with panels up to 42′ wide and 12′ tall (not to exceed 264 pounds per panel). It has a sixteen-panel maximum, eight in each direction, and can be specified to swing inward or outward.
