Looking good.
Cheers!
Did you get your EPDM from rubber4roofs?
I did. They are a bit bollocks at making sure that everything is included in the delivery.
First, they forgot half of the corner patches, then they forgot the penny roller, then they forgot another patch.
And their estimates of glue needed are way off.
In the end, it was cheaper to get a few tins off ebay, although I'm pretty sure that bog standard Evostick contact adhesive would have been fine for the edges.
A word on the patches - They bond immediately, and a faff to keep flat.
I also didn't price in the need for mechanical bonding strips at the edges, which I need because I have upstands the entire perimeter. Worth the £200, though, as I don't want the roof to turn into a trampolines when it pulls away from the uprights.

What made you go for a full upstand with internal drain rather than gutter?
Do you know where you're getting your bifolds from?
I installed mine at the weekend. Goddamn that was a ballache. Got the frame perfectly laser aligned, fitted the sashes and had no end of difficulty getting the bastard traffic door to close properly without catching. Ended up tightening/loosening screws to pull the frame back and forth until it kinda just happened. No science to it at all!
Looking good. And I'll be sure to remember the skin burning cautions!
Did you get your EPDM from rubber4roofs? I've just opened my delivery up to start fitting the gutter trim and there's no trim joiner or polly pins. Not particularly a problem as I got some polypins with my fascias and the joint in the gutter trim won't be seen, but wondering if kit included them?
