Frequently Asked Questions

Below are some of the frequently asked questions from our customers. If you have any other questions, please call us at 1-866-815-8151.

Q. Is there any charge for bi-parting?
A. There is no charge if the length of the accordian door is 8′ or wider. Otherwise, the charge is $40.00.

Q. Can I hang an accordion door from my acoustical drop ceiling?
A. No, you will require a supporting member.

Q. What type of supporting member is satisfactory?
A. A suitable wood header, properly secured and stabilized, will do fine for a support.

Q. What are my options if no overhead support is possible?
A. Portable partitions that “sit” on the floor often work great. Portable partitions are also available through accordion-doors.com.

Q. Suppose I don’t like the color of the Woodfold wood veneer selection. Is it possible to stain it?
A. Yes. We can provide the door unfinished so that you many stain it yourself.

Q. Some Woodfolds are available for curved accordion doors. How do I order this and what is the minimum radius?
A. The track is not provided pre-shaped to a given radius. We provide a curable I-beam track that may be formed to the curve you desire. Simply take a piece of thick plywood, cut it as a template and bend the track along the edge of the wood. This is easy to do and the track will hold the shape. The minimum recommended radius is 12″.

Q. Can I lock my accordion door?
A. Yes. Both vinyl and wood accordion doors offer one-side and two-side locks.
