Installing doors fold out doors to fold in

[jgriz]

We're looking for some folding doors for our loft conversion (juliette balcony) and we're struggling to find anything at a sensible price that opens inwards.

How difficult is it likely to be to convert a set of doors like this to open in rather than out? If possible at all?

Otherwise we could go for sliding but I'd rather not to be honest.

Cheers!

I would ring them direct and tell them what you require rather than bastardizing a perfectly good set of doors. The sliding bolts that are rebated into the bottom of the door will be on the outside for a start, and the doors will be a lot easier to force open, but if you are on a balcony that may not be as much of an issue.

Yeah first thing I did was call them but they just tried to sell us on some pricey French Windows...
