What is a traffic door?

anthracite grey bifold door A traffic door is a normal hinged door sash that acts the same as a traditional door allowing easy routine use without opening the complete bifold. Traffic doors are fitted with lever handle operated hook bolt locking and key cylinder allowing access from outside as well as inside the house. Bifolding door styles without traffic doors do not have any means of opening the door externally with the locking system activated by internal handles fitted to the floating meeting stiles. If you have another exit into the garden a traffic door may not be necessary.

This three panel bifold door has a hinged traffic door enabling single door entry and exit. Styles available with a traffic door are shown below with a < or > symbol to denote a hinged door leaf. All odd numbered panel designs will provide a traffic door. An equal number of panels will require the door to be split such as a four panel door which would have to be split 3/1 to enable a traffic door.
