It's ok after "more than". In this case, what you are really comparing is numbers. So "more than fivefold" means more than 5x as much, e.g. "sixfold", "sevenfold", etc. You can also use "more than" + adjective as emphasis. For example, "I'd be more than happy to do this" means "I would really like to do this".
