REDEFINING BIFOLD DOORS FOR TRADE INSTALLERS WITH PRECISION ENGINEERING AND UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE
For over 25 years, NW Rooftech has been at the forefront of the fenestration industry, supplying trade installers across the UK with high-performance doors, windows, and roofing solutions. With a focus on innovation and quality, the company continues to set new standards with its products, which all boast several significantly advantageous and innovative properties, including having some of the slimmest sightlines on the market. One particularly strong example of this can be seen in their Aluna bifold door offering. Designed with installers in mind, these bifolds combine slimline aesthetics, robust security, and effortless installation, making them a standout choice for trade professionals looking to offer their customers superior solutions.
Engineered for Excellence: The Aluna Bifold Advantage
NW Rooftech’ s Aluna bifold doors, crafted from marine-grade aluminium, feature ultra-slim 107mm sightlines from frame to sash, offer a sleek, contemporary appearance that maximises natural light. With the ability to accommodate sash sizes of up to 1200mm in width and 3000mm in height, these doors provide trade installers with a versatile, high-end solution suitable for both residential and commercial projects.
Security and thermal efficiency are critical in today’ s market, achieving U-values as low as 1.1 W / m ² K with triple glazing and 1.4 W / m ² K with double glazing, these bifold doors ensure compliance with Part L regulations while delivering exceptional energy efficiency. Their PAS24 certified security features include dedicated shoot bolt intermediate locks, a three-point dead latch, and hook lock, providing customers with complete peace of mind.
Andy Ingham, CEO of NW Rooftech, emphasises the company’ s commitment to meeting trade installers’ needs:“ We understand that installers require products that are not only high in quality but also designed for seamless fitting. The Aluna bifold is engineered to offer a straightforward, efficient installation process while delivering outstanding durability, security, and aesthetics. It’ s a game-changer for trade professionals.”
The NW Rooftech Difference: Fabrication with Precision
NW Rooftech goes beyond standard fabrication techniques to ensure flawless product performance. One of the key differentiators is its unique vertical rig assembly process. Unlike traditional horizontal fabrication, which can result in misaligned locks, inconsistent angles, and compromised durability, NW Rooftech’ s vertical rig ensures perfect alignment and precision at every stage of assembly.
Andy explains the importance of this process:“ Even the slightest miscalculation during fabrication can lead to operational issues down the line. Our vertical rig system eliminates this risk, ensuring that every bifold door is manufactured with absolute accuracy. This means smoother installations, fewer callbacks, and happier customers guaranteed for our trade partners.”
Designed for Trade Installers: Faster, Easier, and More Profitable
Time is money for trade professionals, and NW Rooftech’ s Aluna bifolds are specifically designed to streamline the installation process. Their heavy-duty 120kg wheel hardware ensures smooth operation, while clip-in beads allow for faster glazing. With pre-gasketed profiles and intuitive design, installers can reduce fitting times and increase project efficiency, ultimately enhancing their profitability.
Phil Latham, Director at Mount Acre Homes Limited agrees,“ NW Rooftech are a game changer in the fast supply of amazing quality products. Their Aluna bifold is no exception to this, real class product, sturdy, strong and secure. Recently fitted a large five-panel bifold in just over an hour. The simplicity and speed of installation blew me away, their offering basically enables installers to double or triple their daily turnover when installing bifolds. I would recommend NW Rooftech and their quality portfolio to any fellow installer.”

Beyond bifolds, NW Rooftech offers a comprehensive range of fenestration products in both uPVC and aluminium, including windows, sliding doors, entrance doors, rooflights, lanterns, orangeries, pivot doors, internal steel doors, roofing systems, and curtain walling. Trade installers can source all their project needs from a single supplier, benefiting from fast turnaround times, direct-to-site delivery nationwide, expert technical support, and free measuring services in the North West.
As NW Rooftech continues to expand its product offerings, its mission remains the same: to provide trade installers with cutting-edge fenestration solutions that combine performance, ease of installation, and long-term reliability.
