Folding Door History in Singapore
Folding doors are among the most traditional door mechanisms found in Singapore.
From the 1970s to the 1990s, folding doors became a popular choice in Singaporean home decor. They were initially introduced to replace wooden doors, gaining popularity due to their resistance to rot and corrosion in humid environments, such as bathrooms.
Unlike wooden doors, folding doors do not deteriorate in wet conditions, making them ideal for use in Singapore's toilets. Additionally, folding doors were more affordable, as they could be mass-produced and installed quickly.
If you need a door for a toilet, kitchen, or storeroom urgently, a PVC folding door can be installed without precise measurements. Simply provide a rough measurement and a photo of the door space, and we can arrange for installation within a week.
