Red BullRed Bull Headquarters

Schweiss Bi-Fold [email protected]

HLW International of Santa Monica, CA, was charged with turning a 1950s-era brick building into the new home of Red Bull Energy Drink. As part of that process, the firm ordered the demolition of a section of the building’s original roof to create an interior courtyard, and then constructed within the court-yard a 40’-wide by 250’-long, non-functioning skateboard ramp, which has offices and conference spaces beneath.

With the ramp being the focal point of the 105,000 sq. ft. building, the archi-tect looked for a way to create a seemingly seamless connection between the interior of the building and the courtyard space. That was accomplished with a glass bi-fold door.

Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN, manufactured the door, which weighs approximately 10 tons. To operate the door, two electric motors and eight lift straps are used.

Schmidt Construction of Williams, CA, handled the delivery and installation of the door. Inner Space Constructors of Rancho Dominguez, CA, was the project’s general contractor and was responsible for demolition and renova-tion.

Old Navy

Old Navy Mall Doors


Located at the Dallas Galleria, a mall located in Dallas, Texas is a 15’ wide by 11’ tall custom-designed door made exclusively for Old Navy retail stores. These doors allow Old Navy store fronts in malls to stand out as modern designs rather than the typical mall security doors. The aluminum frame, vinyl mesh and blue-tinted glass adapt with Old Navy’s branding identity which helps customers easily identify these stores without reading the store signage alone.

Basement DoorLake home Basement Door


Gene and Carol Buboltz are the owners of this residential 4’-6-1/2” x 6’7” custom “One-Piece®” hydraulic door which is located on the back side of their lake home. This custom, classy wall door is unnoticeable when closed while the outside door trim matches a seamless finish to the house’s exterior. This makes a nice hidden entrance to their basement for whatever possibilities they wish to use it for. When garage space is limited; such an opening to a basement makes it possible for storing lawn mowers, ATV’s, jet-skis, and plenty of other common equipment. One of the greatest qualities of the door is the remote controlled handi-cap accessibility.

Custom Matched Siding

Cycle CityCycle City


Nine designer-style glass bi-fold doors from Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN, are featured around the perimeter of the Harley-Davidson Cycle Project showroom in Maui, HI.

The doors range in size from 18’ to 45’ wide and when closed, function much the same as ordinary window walls. The advantage of having doors instead of windows is that any or all of them can be opened, which facilitates the move-ment of inventory in and out of the showroom, and allows natural ventilation to play a much bigger role in interior comfort.

Arita/Poulson General Contracting of Puunene, Maui, HI, installed the doors.


Santa Clarita Government Center


The Santa Clarita Government Center in Santa Clarita, CA, features two bi-fold doors from Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN. The smaller of the two is a 16’-wide by 14’-tall outside door while the larger is a 26’-wide by 14’-high interior door. Both feature see-through glass panels on the top half. The doors were installed by S.J. Amarosa Construction Co. of Costa Mesa, CA.

Santa Clarita Gov. Center

Rock Island Dam


Though known for its manufacture of bi-fold doors for hangars and farm build-ings, Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN, has supplied doors for countless other types of projects too. An example can be found at the Chelan County Gate of the Rock Island Dam in central Washington. There, a 25’-wide by 8’-high Schweiss door was installed on a building that houses equipment related to the dam’s operation. To help dissipate heat generated when the equipment is functioning, the door was specified with ventilating louvers.

Rust Mesh DoorSan Rafael, CA Private Garage


This private-owned garage was completed Jan. 2006 in San Rafael, California. Nature is the true beauty of this door as the unfinished steel surfaces of the mesh-covered door and building surfaces display organic variations of reds and browns due to the desired rust finish. This 31’-wide by 8’7”-tall door was designed to be a piece of man-made machinery designed to work with the elements of nature as the steel mesh door surface allows natural light and ventilation to pass naturally through. The unique twist of the mesh design allows a viewer from inside the garage to view outside, but not vice versa.

Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN manufactured the door, was purchased by Sonoma Overhead Doors of Sonoma, CA., and installed by Schmidt Construction of Williams, CA.


GuthrieGuthrie Theater


It’s seems only fitting that the one-of-a-kind Guthrie Theater in Minneapo-lis, MN, should have a bi-fold door just as unique. And in the case of the 285,000 Guthrie, designed by French architect Jean Nouvel, the door is not really a door. It’s instead a 17’ x 16’ operable window built into the side of the theater’s Endless Bridge, an observation platform that cantilevers 178’ outward from the theater’s fourth floor lobby on the Mississippi River side to provide spectacular views of the historic river valley, St. Anthony Falls, the Stone Arch Bridge and the Mill Ruins Park.

To the lower left is an example of the new “One-Piece®” hydraulic door that is used as a ticket sales booth at the Guthrie Theatre. The modern and simple style of the door camouflages into the wall when closed with a seamless fin-ish while it functions with both purpose and aesthetic.

The door was designed by W.J. Higgins & Associates of Wausau, WI, and fabricated by Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN. It employs groundbreak-ing hydraulic technology to offer the theater’s guests a breathtaking view of the adjacent Mississippi River.


StanfordGlobal Ecology Center - Stanford University


Founded on the campus of Stanford University in 2002, the Carnegie Insti-tution’s Global Ecology Center was created to study the interaction between the earth’s various ecosystems.

Given the department’s nature-intensive mission, the presence of three bi-fold doors at the Center’s perimeter seems appropriate. In the closed posi-tion, these 9’-tall glass doors—two of which are 14’ wide while the other is slightly larger—bring natural light into nearby interior work spaces. And when opened, they literally connect the indoors and out, thus bringing researchers a little closer to work they’ve dedicated themselves to.

The doors were manufactured by Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN, and installed by Rudolph & Sletten Contractors of Foster City, CA.For more information about Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors, visit www.bifold.com, or email [email protected]

SF GiantsAT & T Stadium


It’s an unglamorous feature, but the 20’-wide by 9’-high bi-fold door at AT & T Stadium in San Francisco, CA, provides a vital function by securing a critical storage area within the ballpark’s fan recreation area. The 20’-wide by 9’-high glass door was manufactured by Schweiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN, and installed by Soule Building Systems of Cotati, CA.

AT & T Stadium is the home of the San Francisco Giants.


Kenyon College


Among the glass walls that comprise the perimeter of Kenyon College’s $80 million Center For Fitness, Recreation and Athletics is a 25’-wide by 14’-tall glass bi-fold door, manufactured by Sch-weiss Bi-Fold Doors of Fairfax, MN, and installed by ASI Limited of Indianapolis, IN.

The 130,000 sq. ft. building is located on the school’s campus in Gambier, OH.
