Living space, bifolding glass doors

Bifold door wall with concealed blinds

A wide wall of bifolding glass doors with blinds concealed above, so the opening reads as a clean glass wall when the blinds are up.

The same space, shade up versus shade down. The hardware stays hidden in the ceiling.

The challenge

A full wall of bifolding doors needed shading without a bulky headbox that would interrupt the indoor-outdoor connection.

The approach

The shade assembly was concealed in a recessed enclosure above the opening, coordinated with the door head during construction.

The result

Open, the glass wall is unobstructed. Closed, the blinds provide shade and privacy across the full span, with the hardware tucked out of sight.
