Bye, bye heat & glare!
Posted on - July 2, 2020Bi-cycle, Bi-ped, Bi-monthly,
Bi-lateral, Bi-onic …
I guess we’ve always been a bit Bi-curious. (Mark definitely is…)
…And we are very good with Bi-fold doors.
Bi-fold doors can add a brilliant and stylish new dimension to any home.
They effectively open your living space to your garden for a sort of al fresco experience in the warmer months.
When it’s not quite so warm – but the sun is out – they allow maximum daylight to shine in and provide a bright and airy environment.
Life of Bi
There is of course a downside to Bi-fold doors.
The problem is intense heat and glare streaming through the large glass panels.
Although this glass lets beautiful natural daylight flood into the room — they also became a nightmare when the sun shines too brightly or too long. The living space can become practically unbearable.
On top of the stifling heat and eye-blistering glare, there is UV from the sun’s rays.
We all know that strong sunlight can harm our skin.
And this very same UV radiation can cause havoc with our soft furnishings.
Fabrics used for curtains, carpets, sofas and clothing — exposed to too much direct sunlight will become damaged and faded. Hard wooden furniture and floors are at risk too. Prolonged exposure to UV from the sun will tarnish and discolour expensive modern items just as badly as those family heirlooms and treasured antiques.
