How Much Value Do Bifold Doors Add?
Introduction
Installing bifold doors is a great way to increase your property value. Whether it’s a brand-new installation or a replacement, aluminium bifold doors will help justify a higher selling price when you put your home on the market. But how much do they add? It’s difficult to put a precise figure on it, but let’s take a closer look.
Increasing Your Property Value
As a rough figure, you can expect new bifold doors to increase your property value by around 5 - 10%. This will fluctuate on a case-by-case basis, but in general, this is what most homeowners can expect. It will be affected by things like the location of a property (if you live in an isolated area it’ll be different to a suburban home), but we’ve yet to see one example of a home decreasing in value because the owners bought new bifold doors.
This works because bifold doors are considered to be modern and attractive and add to the kerb appeal. Their wide glazing areas mean you’ll get extra light inside the house and the metal frames have a cutting-edge sophistication. Our doors all come with double-glazing as standard, and this is a big selling point for professional estate agents.
Further Benefits
Another important thing to mention is the increased security. Despite having so much glass in them, bifold doors are not a weak point. The double-glazing is remarkably tough, and the aluminium frames are inherently strong and durable too. Any would-be intruders will struggle to break through them, and they won’t have luck targeting the locks either. They’re fitted with sophisticated modern locking cylinders, ensuring your home and valuables remain safe.
Plus, aluminium bifold doors form a seamless link between the home and the garden. This is especially beneficial during the summer months, as it will make nature seem closer and open the house up for social gatherings. If a house looks like a good place to host a family barbecue, prospective buyers will be willing to pay more.
With all this in mind, it’s no surprise that bifold doors increase property values. And if you don’t end up selling your house, you’ll have an incredible new installation to enjoy.
