With over 23 years of experience in manufacturing high-quality doors and windows, they have established themselves as one of the most trusted names in the industry.

The TWR Group name has been synonymous with aluminium and bi-fold doors for the last 10 years, helping installers turn to aluminium due to increased demand from the domestic and commercial markets.
Does TWR Group have a dedicated factory for bifold door manufacturing?
All TWR group’s bifold doors are manufactured in-house at a dedicated factory for aluminium. State-of-the-art machinery and technology, and experienced production staff, provide the highest quality manufacturing and all bifold doors are delivered directly nationwide.
How are TWR Group’s bifold doors delivered?
TWR group can supply bifolding doors delivered to you fully assembled, with the option of choosing glazed or unglazed; in kit form for projects where there is limited access to the property; or in a flat pack so they can be easily assembled in your workshop ready for installation.
