Accordion folding doors were derived from an early Chinese (200 B.C.) concept of using ornately designed wood screens as partitions or room enclosures. These screens did not extend to the ceiling. This concept of partitioning was later used in medieval European cathedrals to separate the sanctuary from the church body. The primary difference from folding screens invented 2,200 years ago and accordion folding doors developed in the 20^th Century is that the latter extend to the ceiling and are suspended from an overhead track. The function of the modern accordion door is essentially the same as when invented in an earlier Chinese culture.

Folding doors meet the needs of a variety of architectural applications calling for convenience, design flexibility, space utilization and save considerable floor and wall space providing instant walls when needed.

Recognized as the industry leader, Woodfold's product line reflects our more than four decades of experience in manufacturing folding doors and walls. Continuous product improvement in the past and the future assures the owner, contractor and design professional of the best possible product.
Each Woodfold door is custom made to size and features a unique continuous pin hardware system applied top and bottom to ensure positive controlled action.
This catalog and other supplemental literature documents available have been designed to provide the owner, contractor and design professional with detailed information encompassing our entire Woodfold accordion door line. It is designed to assist in the selection of the Woodfold Series door best suited for each particular installation.

HARDWARE SYSTEM

UNIQUE HARDWARE HINGE SYSTEM

Features: An exclusive Woodfold feature, our top and bottom hardware hinge system eliminates the stretching of the vinyl panel connectors. Woodfold's roller system is riveted to the top steel hardware system for additional strength and durability. Woodfold's steel hardware hinge system allows these doors to "stay put" whether in the stacked or extended position. This metal hinge system provides rigidity and strength while the partition or door is fully extended.
