High Strength Traffic Door Buffer MagnetsA Bifold Door with traffic doors, may need to be fitted with high strength buffer magnets. These are used to secure the traffic door to the adjacent panel, holding it in an open position. This also acts as a buffer preventing the traffic door from knocking against the other panels. |
What Is A Traffic Door? - How Do I Get Inside And Outside Access?
A traffic door allows quick and easy access from the inside and outside of your bifolding doors, without having to slide and fold any panels. Just as you would have with a conventional back door. If your chosen style does not allow for a traffic door, you will have no outside access and at least two panels must be folded to open the doors.
Bi-folding doors slide in two’s, so an uneven number of panels folding in any direction will always result in an odd panel that can operate independently of the sliding panels. This odd (spare) panel is known as a traffic door, and offers quick and easy access from both inside and outside, using a standard lever-lever door handle. Subsequently an even number of panels will result in no traffic door and no outside access.
