Premier™ Aluminum Bi-fold Doors-1

ECONOMICAL MODULAR CONSTRUCTION Field welding is unnecessary for manual assembly of a Premier™ door. Vertical or horizontal splices bolt together for quick, easy installation. Our economical modular construction saves installation time and reduces installation costs. Lighter, yet stronger than steel framed alternatives, Wilson Premier™ bi-fold hangar doors are made of 6061-T6 aluminum. Custom built to match your exact specifications, they are easy to install and have one of the lowest life cycle costs in the industry. Regardless of the environment, the raw mill finish provides a clean, crisp look and higher aesthetic value than steel products. There is no rusting or chipping paint and the door can be clad with any covering to achieve your desired look. Premier™ doors offer the size and strength you need, with the style you want. Fully Customized Unlike alternatives from other manufacturers, every Wilson door is custom-built to your specifications, eliminating the need for costly building modifications or product "adaptations" in the field. Space Saving Design The Premier™ bi-fold door elevates within the threshold and requires little to no headroom or wall clearance. This feature leaves more usable space, both inside and out. Its frame is mounted and operates on the outside of the building. That means no track on the floor, no panel storage on the sides, no need for support mechanisms or tracking from the ceiling, and no intrusion into the interior of the building.
