The advantage of Bifold Doors

Bifold doors offer one of the simplest ways to access as much of your closets as possible without having to move furniture. Bifold doors will fold back to back making it easier to get into your closet, or even another room. This means you can see everything you have in your closets without sliding doors back and forth.

Why Kestrel Bifold Doors?

Kestrel bifold doors out perform any other bifold door on the market today. Our custom sized bifold doors are all hand built from solid, premium hardwoods like Basswood, Spanish Cedar and Mahogany. The only joinery method we use is the traditional pegged, mortise and tenon joint. We also offer the most diverse line of bifold doors with styles including louvered doors, raised, flat and recessed panels, mirrors, glass, fabric, beadboard, tongue and groove as well as board and batten.
