It just meant that it would have been easier to understand if divided
into sentences - each starting with a capital letter and ending with a
full-stop. And maybe with the occasional comma thrown in, for good measure.

* what i was saying was, placed 3 hinges

on the left hand side of the door, placed the locks on the right and
the cup board magnet on top i removed 40mm from the bottom of the doo
to allow it to fit the opening,there is no top track and my clients
wish it to be closed tight and be secure. The advice and help which i
have received from you and everyone else has help me ,thanks everyone
but these doors r just a pain

So is it *actually* a bi-fold door - i.e. in two pieces, hinged down the
middle? If so, how many hinges are there altogether, including those
which hinge the whole thing to the frame?

If it's hinged to the frame with conventional hinges, the hinge axis
will be in line with - or outside - one face of the door. Proper bi-fold
door gear has the axis mid-way between the two faces - and this matters
when it comes to making it stay closed.

The bi fold door has 1 hinge the full lenght of the door and i placed
3 pin hinges on the left hand side. The door is between a granny flat
and main house, they just want the door to be, when closed that no one
can open it when u push it at the centre. But when it was on the track
the problem still happen's.thanks
