Doors with double glazing

Doors with a double-glazed window will help to create an aesthetic look of the house, emphasize hospitality and hospitality of the owners. They give the room lightness, airiness and look very elegant. Glass is one of the most sought-after building and finishing materials, which are very popular among consumers.

The main advantages of doors with glass inserts include:

• possibility of installation in rooms without windows - the product passes light well;
• modern windows perfectly cope with the functions of sound and heat insulation;
• the design allows you to see those who came to visit, to follow the yard and what children in other rooms do.

Due to the transmission of sunlight in the premises, it is not necessary to switch on the light often, which entails a reduction in the financial cost of electricity. In the hallway of the house you can place light-loving potted plants. In addition, the doors look original, especially if the glass insert is not standard (square or rectangular), but of an unusual shape (round, triangular, wavy).

There are two main types of glass doors:

• Interior - are mounted indoors. Such products are divided into traditional swing structures, sliding and sliding. The last two types are used quite often, because they do not need a large area to open, and when closed, they almost merge with the wall and become one with it.
• Input - installed at the entrance to the house. They are made in such a way as to protect the home from the penetration of cold. Products are found mainly in private properties - in an apartment building, few people dare to put the door,through which you can see everything that happens inside the room.

Thermal break products are a good version of the input design. In the winter season, ordinary doors let through the cold and can literally freeze. But for structures with thermal break, this is not terrible - they represent a canvas divided into several parts that conduct heat. When creating doors, a material with low thermal conductivity is used, due to which heat is stored and maintained in the house.

In country houses, some owners prefer to install the door with bars and windows. The grille provides additional protection against hacking and intruders.

Any door consists of a frame, reinforced profiles. They are placed inside the product and prevent the appearance of deformations. Each design is completed with loops and handles for opening. Glasses are inserted into the frame and in some cases protected - for this purpose, forged parts are used, acting as a decor.

Doors with single-glazed windows have an insert of two glasses - between them there is one chamber. It is filled with inert gases - most often it is argon or krypton, which increase sound insulation. Features of double-glazed windows - low weight, low price, but poor heat retention, so they are used for interior doors or entrance structures mounted at moderate temperatures.

Two-chamber double-glazed windows have three glasses and two air chambers, also filled with inert gases. Doors with similar glass packs withstand much better noise and provide a comfortable microclimate in the house.

Products with three-chamber double-glazed windows are more massive than others. The door is placed insert of four glasses, forming three cameras.

For the production of door structures using different types of glass:

• Demand is for products with reinforced glass, equipped with metal mesh.This glass is quite thick, so the doors have good sound insulation properties.
• Tempered glass is often used to create entrance doors. Their quality characteristics and wear resistance are at a high level, due to which designs are popular among consumers.
• Triplex is several layers of glass connected by a film or a liquid polymer. Doors with triplex are resistant to mechanical stress and are characterized by increased strength.

• Armored windows are rare and are inserted into armored doors.
• Energy-saving glass has a special coating - it consists of rare earth metals. Such products perfectly retain heat in the cold season and cool the room when it is hot outside.
• Tinted windows are chosen by those who do not want the inside of the house to be seen from the side of the street. At the same time the street will be visible from the room.
• Stained glass will help to revitalize the facade of the building, to introduce bright colors.
• On interior doors are corrugated or frosted glass, performing a decorative function.

• for the kitchen - 70 cm;
• for rooms - 80-90 cm.

• PVC - often used to equip the exit to the balcony or loggia.The modern plastic door is resistant to moisture and corrosion, has a long operational life, and is easy to clean.
• Aluminum - aluminum acts as a frame for sliding structures. The material retains heat poorly and needs protection if the product serves as a way out to the street. In such cases, it is rational to install grille or roller blinds.

• Iron door - the product will help not to let extraneous sounds into the room, to increase the house insulation. Iron constructions are rather durable and it is not so easy to crack them, therefore the visit of uninvited guests is excluded.
