What's the latest trend in the window and door market? Folding door panels/systems. Manufacturers like Kolbe, Weiland and Lacantina are now offering this sleek new design.

Kolbe's line, Folding Door System, "fold back against each other to create an expansive, inviting opening." The company’s new line allows for homeowners to have up to a 45-foot view completely "unobstructed."
