ATDC’s commercial folding doors are frequently specified and installed on heritage buildings in Australia. They are generally regarded as enhancing the aesthetic appeal that preserves the older style look of these older, historical structures.
Some recent doors supplied by ATDC to the new Edmonson Park shopping centre in southwestern Sydney had a copper wash finish applied to give them an older, antique appearance. This finish is applied through a basic rag roll process which is very effective in achieving this copper wash appearance. The project managers for this job were Regiment workshop who contracted out the application of the special finish described in this article.
The recent fitout of the Baptist Church Community Hall on Miller Street, West Melbourne, featured the installation of The Australian Trellis Door Co’s (ATDC) premium S08 curved steel retractable commercial security door.
High-Quality Security for Baptist Church Community Hall
Curved Steel Retractable Commercial Security Door
Impressive Dimensions and Aesthetic Finish
Spanning an impressive width of 8000mm and a height exceeding 3200mm, this architecturally specified security door boasts a high-quality black satin powder-coated finish. This elegant finish enhances the sleek aesthetic lines of the door, ensuring it blends seamlessly with the modern design of the community hall.
Space-Efficient Design
One of the standout features of the S08 security door is its ability to fold back into a stack size that occupies only 15% of the total opening span. This innovative design minimises the storage space required, making it an ideal solution for areas where functionality and space efficiency are paramount.
Advanced Locking and Curving Capabilities
Equipped with intermediate up/down locking mechanisms, the S08 allows secure lock-up for clients without the need for a floor track or removable mullions. Its unique engineering accommodates 600mm radius turns at either 45 or 90 degrees, while offset S-bends and special curves are optional features for added versatility.

The Australian Trellis Door Company (ATDC) has pioneered a triple-track commercial bifold door system that achieves major storage space advantages for its customers.
ATDC’s Triple Track Commercial Bifold Door System
Side by Side bifold door for shopfront
Efficient Design for Maximum Retail Frontage
In a recent commercial fitout project for Natalie Marie Jewellery at Avalon in Sydney, Annandale-based interior architect X+O specified an S07-2 side-by-side parallel top track arrangement for ATDC’s commercial bifold door at the front of the retail store. The design intent was to minimise the side stacking depth of the door, providing maximum retail frontage for the client. Read further product information and technical details.
Overcoming Storage Space Limitations Onsite
Once onsite, the project manager, LJW Building, encountered further door storage space limitations, requiring a maximum stack depth of 8% of the shopfront span. To meet this requirement, ATDC installed its bifold door in a triple top track configuration, achieving a door stack of just 450mm over a 5700mm shopfront opening span. This incredible achievement is essential for retailers and commercial businesses aiming to maximise their trading space in high-rent properties.
Seamless Lock-Up and No Floor Track Required
The triple-track system offers seamless lock-up with a series of intermittent up/down locking mechanisms, requiring no floor track or removable mullions. The attached image demonstrates the successful setup of this recent installation.
Available Nationwide and Internationally
ATDC’s commercial bifold doors are available in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, Canberra, and Adelaide, as well as regional centres across Australia, including Darwin, Townsville, Hobart, Geelong, Newcastle, and the Sunshine and Gold Coast regions. They are also being exported internationally throughout South East Asia, the Asia Pacific, the Pacific Islands, and the UAE.
