Hi Tracy, we are still building. I don't have a photo of the doors fully installed yet (the glass was installed today....hooray!) . I'll get a photo when I can (might be a few days as concrete polishing starts tomorrow). To explain the doors- they are 3-panel. The 3rd is fixed, so the first 2 panels retract back behind the fixed panel. There are 2 retractable screens, that also retract back into the 3rd fixed panel. I'm sure if you look through Houzz or even the AWS website, you will see plenty of examples. Mozzies absolutely love my older son and I. It was not optional for us to have unscreened doors or windows!

Hi again, thanks everyone for your input. I have been to a well known window/door manufacturer today which makes aluminium, timber and alu/timber composite to compare all options. It was a local company also so they were able to advise based on knowledge of our climate. The composite was higher in price but was also too contemporary in design, the aluminium was also too contemporary in design and not all options suitable for double-glazed glass, so we have returned to the idea of the solid timber but have taken all the advice on board and are opting for a pair of hinged french doors with sidelights in size to match and fanlights above so we can still retain the overall height and look but the actual doors will be closer to standard 2100mm height. Hopefully this will also eliminate any difficulty with opening them which we would probably have found had we had a bi-fold system or 2.7m door height. FYI the salesperson I spoke with also advised that there is a product available (sold in our local area from Inspirations Paint company) which when applied to the timber doors/windows gives 7 year protection from rot and fading due to rain and UV. He had used this himself on his own timber doors which were also exposed fully to the weather and highly recommended it - so I will post what this treatment is when I have more information on it. Thanks again everyone who helped out with their advice
