For both professional installers and DIY enthusiasts, bi-folding door installation can be a rewarding project. However, traditional glazing methods involving cutting and fitting gaskets can be time-consuming, messy, and prone to errors. Made for Trade, the proud manufacturer of Korniche Bi-Folding Doors, is here to introduce a revolutionary solution: the Korniche Speedbead System.
Say Goodbye to Gaskets, Hello to Speedbead!
In this informative video by Skillbuilder’s Roger Bisby, you’ll gain a deep dive into the innovative Speedbead System and discover the advantages that make it a game-changer for anyone working with bi-folding doors.
As Roger explains:
“They’ve put this piece of polyamide in here, which is the same material on the thermal brake clipped into this aluminium profile… Once it’s in, it’s in and the only way you’re going to get it out is with this special Korniche deglazing tool.”
Effortless Installation, Superior Results
The Speedbead System replaces traditional gaskets with a unique clip-in bead. This innovative design boasts a pre-gasketed bead, eliminating the need for on-site gasket manipulation and saving you valuable time. The clever polyamide insert flexes for easy insertion, simply clip the bead into place for a secure and weatherproof fit, every single time.
Here’s what Roger loves about the Speedbead System:
“This is the future… You’ve got a much nicer aluminium finish with just a thin piece of rubber there. So rather than having to push all that gasket in, and it never looked that great quite honestly. This is beautiful.”
Streamlined Removal and Readjustment
The Speedbead System doesn’t just simplify installation; it also streamlines the process of removing and refitting the glazing. Unlike traditional methods that risk damaging gaskets during removal, the Speedbead System features a dedicated deglazing tool. This allows for quick and effortless bead removal without marking the glass or paintwork.
Roger provides valuable advice on removing the bead:
“If you find that that rubber is stuck in there, it might have dried out. You can just squirt in a bit of silicone spray in there.”

- Faster and easier installation compared to traditional gaskets
- Pre-gasketed bead eliminates on-site manipulation
- Clip-in design ensures a secure and weatherproof seal
