Bifold Blinds Leatherhead

Bespoke Light Control for Contemporary Living by Controlux

Bifold Blinds to Fit Your Home

Create the Perfect Modern Living Environment with Controlux

Bi-fold doors have transformed the way we live; seamlessly connecting interiors with gardens and flooding spaces with natural light. But with these expansive glass panels comes the need for intelligent window treatments that balance aesthetics, privacy, temperature control, and usability. At Controlux, we specialise in custom blinds for bi-folds in Leatherhead, offering tailored solutions that enhance your space without compromising functionality. With over 35 years of experience in window dressing and shading systems across Surrey and the Home Counties, we understand that bi-fold doors demand more than just off-the-shelf solutions; they require design precision and technical expertise

Why Standard Blinds Fall Short with Bi-Fold Doors

Bi-folds are not like traditional windows. Their unique structure, movement, and scale mean that most conventional blinds either:

Obstruct door operation

Offer poor light and privacy control

Sag, twist or catch in the door tracks

Or require constant adjustment throughout the day

The right solution must be engineered to fit the function and flow of bi-folds while blending seamlessly into your interior design. At Controlux, we provide bespoke blinds that do just that.

Blinds Built for Homes with Character

From modern extensions in Fetcham to period homes near Bookham Common, Leatherhead’s architectural diversity means that a one-size-fits-all approach simply doesn’t work.

Our made-to-measure blinds for bi-fold doors are specifically designed to suit the unique demands of Leatherhead properties, whether you’re working with listed building restrictions, south-facing garden rooms, or energy-efficient new builds. We take into account:

Orientation and solar gain
Sightlines and garden views
Interior design schemes
Local climate and insulation needs

Where Our Bi-Fold Blinds Work Best

Our Leatherhead clients frequently install blinds for bi-folds in:

- Open-plan kitchens- Control glare and heat without losing the indoor-outdoor feel.
- Garden rooms and orangeries- Add privacy while still letting in soft filtered light.
- New-build living spaces- Seamless integration with modern glazing and finishes.
- Character renovations- Combine modern functionality with period sensitivity.

Data-Driven Performance: Why These Blinds Matter

Homeowners often choose bi-fold doors to maximise natural light, but that light can quickly become problematic if unmanaged. Based on studies from the Energy Saving Trust and Glass & Glazing Federation, here’s what you should know:

76% of sunlight that enters through double glazing turns into heat, causing indoor temperatures to soar in summer.
Up to 18% of heat loss occurs through glass doors during colder months.
UV exposure from glass panes can fade furnishings in as little as 6 months.

The right blind system acts as a thermal and visual filter, regulating light, improving energy efficiency, and extending the life of your interiors.

Controlux Blind Solutions for Bi-Fold Doors

We offer a curated selection of high-performance blinds for bi-folds, each designed for function, flexibility, and finish:

Perfect Fit Blinds: Clip into the door frame with no drilling; ideal for aluminium or uPVC bi-folds. These stay flush with the glass, so doors can open and close without interference.
Integral Blinds (In-Glass): Permanently sealed within the glazing units, these offer zero maintenance and sleek operation via magnet or motor. Excellent for modern new builds and kitchen diners.
Pleated and Duette Thermal Blinds: Lightweight and highly insulating. These cellular blinds trap air, providing both summer heat reduction and winter warmth retention.
Motorised Roller Blinds with Side Channels: Elegant and highly functional for wide spans. Available with app control, timers, and smart-home integration, ideal for high-spec Leatherhead properties.
Panel Glide Systems: Perfect for large-format doors and open-plan living areas. These panels stack neatly when open and glide smoothly across the opening for maximum versatility.
