Hi guys.

My aluminium bifold door is really letting in an awful draft. It's only on the section of the door which can be used as a single door.

Anyway, I took a look this morning and adjusted the three multi point locking sections within the frame (basically I moved them so that they were a few mm closer to the inside of the frame.

I closed the door and lifted the handle and the draft was gone, great.

That was until I tried to lock the door. It appears that bringing the door closer solves the draft but doesn't allow the lock to engage properly.

I had to then readjust the locking brackets? So that there was a draft again, but now the door locks.


Can anyone help me out with this as the draft is driving me mad.

There are three hook type arms which all engage into the brackets within the frame. Each of the three brackets has 2 x T15 adjusters which allow the brackets to move back and forth.

Any help is much much much appreciated

Thanks

Ian
