How To Design Sunroom And Balcony Doors And Windows

How should the appropriate and reasonable sunroom/balcony doors and windows be designed? How to customize according to different scenarios? This time, ALWEW Doors and Windows will take you to have a look.

Sunroom Window Design

(1) If used as a decorative display, daily washing and drying, etc., then the sunroom needs a good ventilation and lighting environment to meet basic practical needs. In the design of sunroom windows, ALWEW Doors and Windows recommends choosing more practical and simple sliding windows (increasing the number of sashes, widening the window area, etc.) to enhance the ventilation effect.

(2) If it is built into a more practical scene such as a study or living room, then the sunroom needs to improve the overall thermal insulation performance on the basis of the above. At this time, casement windows with better sealing and thermal insulation will be a good choice.

(3) If you want to install the sunroom on the roof, then the windproof, rainproof and anti-seepage design of the sunroom windows must be in place. The choice of sunroom windows is probably similar to that of high-rise doors and windows and balcony windows.

Windows should be strong and windproof: The strength of sunroom doors and windows is generally linked to their wind pressure resistance, which is directly related to factors such as the glue injection connection at the corner of the profile and the strengthening of the middle support, and is not necessarily proportional to the size of the door and window series. Therefore, improving the strength of doors and windows in high-rise buildings/rooftop sunrooms requires not only good door and window corner assembly technology, but also attention to details such as corner assembly glue and cross-section glue.

The waterproof details of the sunroom should be done well: As we all know, the probability of water leakage in the sunroom is greater than that of the windows in our homes, because there are many more places to seal between glass and glass, glass and windows, profiles and profiles, and profiles and walls than ordinary doors and windows. In general, the waterproof and leak-proof of the sunroom is related to the water tightness of the profile frame structure, the sealant treatment of the exterior wall, and the drainage structure.

(1) For open balconies, the sliding doors should be improved and safe: Between the balcony and the living room, the doors and windows have both ventilation and lighting elements, and the important task of anti-theft, dustproof and soundproofing. Here, ALWEW Doors and Windows does not recommend narrow-edge sliding doors as the first choice, but should carefully choose folding doors, heavy sliding doors or lifting sliding door series with better strength.

(2) Under the balcony, sliding/casement windows have a focus: Since you want to create an ideal small indoor space, the balcony doors and windows are naturally better. At present, there are two main window designs for home balcony enclosures - sliding windows or casement windows.

Balcony sliding windows: Recommended for use in quiet environments, less rain or areas where the sealing and sound insulation of windows are not required. Because the opening area of sliding windows is large, it is recommended to install a protective net to avoid the risk of falling.

Balcony casement windows: Suitable for environments and areas with high dust, high noise, and frequent rain and wind; such as low-rise residential buildings near the road (external noise is high), the windows can be equipped with large hollow or double hollow glass for better sound insulation. When choosing casement windows, it is recommended that users install safety protection grids on the opening parts to avoid the risk of children climbing out of the window and falling.

(3) In a large space, the living room and bedroom are combined into one: break the boundaries of brick walls and sliding doors, install the balcony into the living room or bedroom, and extend the indoor space wider and make the indoor space larger.

This large space layout design has no brick walls and partitions, and relies entirely on the enclosed balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows to protect the safety and comfort of the room. The design of the enclosed balcony has been mentioned before. Now ALWEW Doors and Windows will focus on the safety design of floor-to-ceiling windows.

When floor-to-ceiling windows enter thousands of households, the visual beauty they bring has become the icing on the cake of home decoration. In fact, if we want the floor-to-ceiling windows to be beautiful and safe, we must pay enough attention to some details in its installation and use safety.
