The Domestic Uses of the Sliding Frameless Glass Doors


The slidingframeless glass doors have their design origin from a Japanese design. They were first used in North America. Currently, the use of the use of these doors has become widespread and is said to be growing at a rate of about seven percent per year. This can be attributed to the rising cost of house construction. This cost has led to a decrease of the available space in most houses. Therefore, it becomes very necessary to use the available space in the best way possible. One way is to use of these doors. This is because they do not swing rather they slide. Once they get to the end of the door they usually turn and stay against the wall perpendicularly to the door way. These doors have found many applications at our homes.
These doors are used in the areas of relaxation in our homes. These include the swimming pools, the lawn tennis court and the patios. The doors are used to enclose these areas which are found outdoors. These doors are suited for this purpose because of a number of reasons. One, they will protect a swimmer from the wind chill after a swim. As they offer this protection they will not block the natural light from getting into the swimming pool area. Two, when these doors enclose a tennis court they will keep the balls within the court except for those that will go too high. Another advantage of these doors is that they will not shatter when hit by the tennis ball or even crack. This is because the glass that makes this door is tempered and can be very thick. This glass is known to be weather resistant and is therefore very durable despite the weather conditions. Three, these doors will provide you with a natural view of the garden outside your patio as you relax. This is attributed to the transparency of the glass that makes these doors. This also makes the patio more vibrant than normal due to the natural light.
These sliding glass doors are also used in the interior of the house at the living area, the bathroom and bedrooms. These doors are used as wall partitions, doors or curtains. They are used as doors because of the way they open which saves a lot of space. Another reason for their popularity is their availability in various colors which contributes into adding of the house decor. Their usability as curtains is because they can provide privacy whereby they come integrated with beautiful blinds. These blinds also come in various colors and are available in two different styles. This is an artwork which adds to beauty of your home.
Finally, when the glass doors are used to partition the rooms you enjoy two advantages. First one is the protection from noise in the adjacent room. This is very necessary where one of the family members is a fan of loud music and the other is not. The second is the provision of accessibility when you move stuff across rooms and is a result of these doors opening full length.
