What Sets Us Apart from Other Brands?

Why Our Bi-Fold Doors Stand Above the Rest Not all bi-fold doors are created equal. Unlike the mass-produced, low-cost doors you’ll find online at big-box retailers like Home Depot, our doors are built to withstand extreme conditions and last for years to come.

✅ Superior Wind Resistance – Engineered to handle hurricanes and tornadoes, our doors boast an impressive Wind Load Resistance of TS EN 12210, 4500 Pa, providing unmatched protection.

✅ Energy Efficiency & Insulation – With thermal insulation of Uw: 2.3 W/m².K, our doors help maintain indoor temperatures, reducing energy costs and keeping your home comfortable year-round.

✅ Stronger, More Durable Construction – Unlike flimsy budget doors, our 1.8mm thick profiles, 77.3mm frame depth, and 56.3mm panel width create a robust structure that won’t warp or break over time.

✅ Industry-Leading Warranty – While cheap door factories offer 1-5 year warranties, we stand behind our quality with a long-term, proven warranty for peace of mind. Don’t settle for the cheapest option—invest in quality. Keep your family, tenants, and property safe with bi-fold doors designed to withstand the toughest conditions. Choose Gladiator Windows & Doors—a name you can trust.

1. Industry-Leading Wind Load Resistance

✅ Our doors have a 4500 Pa (4.5 kPa) wind load resistance, making them 5x stronger than the industry standard of just 800 Pa.

✅ Designed to withstand hurricanes, storms, and high-wind environments without structural failure.

❌ Many competitors sell doors with weak frames and glass that cannot handle high winds, putting your home at risk.

2. Heavy-Duty Aluminum Frame Construction 

✅ We use 2.2mm-thick 6063-T5 aluminum frames, engineered for maximum durability and longevity.

✅ Resistant to bending, warping, and long-term wear, even in extreme weather conditions.

❌ Many competitors use thin, low-quality aluminum (1.2-1.4mm thick) that bends and deteriorates over time.

3. Advanced Thermal Break Technology for Energy Efficiency

✅ Our doors feature 5+27A+5mm double-tempered glass with argon gas insulation, ensuring superior energy efficiency.

✅ Keeps homes cooler in summer and warmer in winter, reducing energy costs.

❌ Many competitors use thin single-pane glass without insulation, leading to heat loss and high energy bills.

4. Stainless Steel Track System for Smooth Operation

✅ We use SUS304 stainless steel tracks, ensuring smooth sliding, long-term durability, and rust resistance.

✅ Designed for easy operation and minimal maintenance.

❌ Many competitors use cheap aluminum tracks that rust, deteriorate, and cause sliding issues over time.

5. Fully Enclosed Wooden Crate Packaging for Maximum Protection

✅ Every order is professionally crated in a high-strength wooden box, costing us nearly $1,000 per order, to ensure your door arrives in perfect condition.

✅ Protects against shifting, impact damage, and exposure to elements during transit.

❌ Many sellers use open-frame crating, leading to damaged deliveries, costly returns, and installation delays.

6. Waterproof & Airtight Sealing for Longevity

✅ Features a three-seal system and hidden drainage design, preventing water leaks and air infiltration.

✅ Ideal for coastal, high-humidity, and extreme weather environments.

❌ Many competitors lack proper weatherproof sealing, leading to water damage, mold, and poor insulation over time.

7. U.S. Building Code Compliance – Guaranteed

✅ Our doors are fully tested and certified to meet U.S. national and local building codes.

✅ You can verify these certifications in our product images.

❌ Many online sellers offer imported doors that do not meet U.S. regulations, leading to failed inspections and costly modifications.
