Mid America Exteriors has over 30 years of expertise installing high-quality bi-fold windows for homes in Wichita, KS and surrounding areas. As an established home improvement company, we understand how important it is to choose the right bi-fold windows to match your home’s style and meet your needs.
Bi-fold windows are operable windows that fold into each other, similar to accordion-style doors. When open, the panes stack neatly to the side without protruding out which makes them perfect for rooms with limited space. Bi-folds give you the flexibility of opening them fully for maximum ventilation or just partially to let in some fresh air.
One of the best features of bi-fold windows is that they can be built to practically any custom size to perfectly fit your unique window openings. We offer standard sizes as well as fully custom options to design bifold windows tailored to your exact specifications.
Our bi-fold windows feature thick, double or triple insulated glass that folds smoothly on stainless steel hinges while providing excellent insulation. We use strong and long-lasting construction that resists weathering and wear-and-tear over years of use.
Installing well-crafted bi-fold windows provides Wichita, KS homeowners a variety of helpful benefits:
Bi-fold kitchen windows maximize usable counter and cabinet space by folding fully out of the way. Excellent over a kitchen sink or stove to quickly ventilate cooking smoke and odors too. In dining areas, bifold windows make opening up the room for entertaining simple and effective.
Bi-fold living room windows can open fully to seamlessly integrate indoor and outdoor spaces for excellent flexibility. Position them behind couches or TVs without worrying about the windows protruding out when opened. For media rooms, ample soundproofing blocks outside noise when closed.
Ventilate moisture quickly after baths and showers with easy to open bi-fold bathroom windows conveniently positioned above tubs or next to vanities. No awkward window sash knobs to work around either.
Stale laundry odors easily air out thanks to wide-opening bi-fold windows most suitable next to laundry machines and countertops that allow maximum ventilation and light inside. No bulky protruding window to bump your elbows into while sorting and folding.
In offices, bi-folds open to bring in fresh air naturally without noisy fans to disrupt focus. Bedrooms stay cooler on warm nights with excellent cross breeze abilities from multiple folding window panels left partially ajar.
Installing new bi-fold replacement windows involves careful removal and preparation work before the new windows themselves can go in:
First we fully take out the old window frames intact if possible, while minimizing disruption to existing interior walls and trimwork which we will protect with dropcloths. We legally dispose of all old window materials offsite.
Your openings are then prepped, repaired, squared up and reinforced to ensure secure, plumb, level and smooth mounting surfaces. Rotted wood gets replaced and holes or cracks filled to construct durable, solid framing.
Next we carefully install your beautiful new bi-fold windows built precisely to your opening’s specifications. We ensure the window operates smoothly, seals tightly when closed, and is oriented for proper drainage and maximum exposure. All hardware gets adjusted until working perfectly.
Any remaining air gaps around the newly installed bi-fold’s frame gets stuffed with fiberglass insulation for increased temperature and sound dampening. We apply flexible caulk seals to keep exterior air and moisture out.
Sturdy wood trim moulding finishes off the entire perimeter covering nail holes and gaps with a seamless look blending in attractively with your existing trimwork and walls for a clean factory-installed appearance.
When completed, we walk you through operating your stunning new bi-fold windows correctly and provide literature on maintenance recommendations. Your satisfaction guaranteed!
