How does a folding door work?

1 Answer

Folding doors are also known as bi-fold doors and are constructed with two or more panels that a user can fold or unfold to open or close. These doors are fitted into runners on which they slide and fold when opened or closed. They look like the musical instrument concertina and are also sometimes called by this name in an informal setting.
