Bifold door

A method of manufacturing a bifold door, comprising:

• connecting a first actuator connected to an upper panel of the bifold door, wherein the first actuator further comprises a connection point configured to connect to an anchor;
• and
• connecting a second actuator to the upper panel and to a lower panel of the bifold door, wherein:
• the first actuator is configured to rotate the upper panel,
• the second actuator is configured to rotate the lower panel,
• the first actuator and the second actuator are disposed in a plane intersecting the bifold door,
• the first actuator and the second actuator are configured to be actuated in tandem;
• and
• the first actuator and the second actuator are disposed between outer edges of the upper panel and the lower panel.

A method comprising:

• connecting an upper panel to an anchor, the upper panel comprising a top edge disposed proximate the anchor and a lower edge disposed distal of the anchor relative to the top edge;
• connecting an upper hinge to the anchor and to the top edge of the upper panel, wherein the upper hinge is configured to permit rotation of the top edge of the upper panel but prevent elevation of the top edge of the upper panel, relative to gravity;
• connecting a first actuator to the anchor and to the upper panel, wherein the first actuator is configured to lift the lower edge of the upper panel upwardly relative to a direction of gravity and outwardly relative to the anchor;
• and
• connecting a second actuator to the upper panel and to an upper edge of a lower panel, wherein the second actuator is configured to rotate the lower panel,
• wherein the top edge of the upper panel is configured, during lifting of the bifold door, to rotate in a first direction and the upper edge of the lower panel is configured to rotate in a second direction opposite the first direction, and
• wherein the first actuator and the second actuator are disposed between outer edges of the upper panel and the lower panel.
