Sliding glass doors

Want to create a unique interior in the house? The sliding doors will fit in the space: they are functional, they do not hide the square, they are stylish. With their help, you can easily turn two rooms into one unit, for example, a living room with a dining room.

What is a sliding glass door?

Due to the operation of the rollers, the system is set in motion. The system consists of a door leaf, guides, rollers and locks, decorative strips (often combine glass with wooden inserts), special fittings. The glass should be strong. It can be transparent, with a mirror effect, matte, with stained glass or embossed patterns. That is why it is possible to pick up a product that fits as much as possible into the interior.

Sliding option has several advantages over the traditional swing. First of all, you save space. Opening is easy: due to special sound sensors and motion sensors, the door can be opened automatically. It is possible to avoid the device thresholds or they are minimal due to oversized lower guides.

The disadvantages include high cost, insufficient noise insulation. Glass sliding doors for the kitchen are not very appropriate. In places where the profile guides are installed, you can not put furniture. Glass products of different configurations are more suitable for installation inside a house or apartment. Entrance doors of this kind will not be able to fully protect the house from illegal penetration.

Types of glass sliding structures for doorways

Sliding design is a popular option. Sliding glass interior door with two doors is a classic option. The design allows you to arrange a wide opening. For example, French doors give a width of up to 2 m, while sliding doors are 3 m or more. The dimensions of the doors depend on the materials used. A thin aluminum frame will cover a smaller space than a vinyl base. Compared to French doors, the sliding "classic" is more reliable and democratic in value.

Slider doors, consisting of four panels, attract attention. Why not use such sliding glass doors for the bathroom? The extreme elements are fixed, the other two can move. In the initial position, they are densely joined. In this way, it is possible to cover an opening up to 5 m, with proper design it is possible to create a glass wall.

The entrance sliding glass doors can be represented by a telescopic model. It has three or more panels that slide parallel to each other. A large part of the wall is covered. This idea is perfectly combined with modern interior, for modern, classics, country is better to choose another option. The glass base is "clamped" by profiles, the components are arranged in staggered order. For example, four components have four independent guide tracks.

Sliding and sliding glass doors for the terrace are ideal. Moving along the track, the glass hides in the adjoining wall. Such a decision will not be expensive, but this is the best way to get an "opening" glass wall. The cost is affected by the configuration of the structure and selected materials. When there is no possibility to remove the canvas into the wall, it is possible to use folding doors. They work at the expense of the hinges and the electric drive (expensive models). In order to enter / exit you do not have to open all the doors, just move one of them. Effective result is guaranteed!
