The bathroom is an important place in the home. There is generally a lot of water here. In addition to the separation of dry and wet, the choice of bathroom door is actually very important. The choice of bathroom door should first look at moisture resistance and deformation resistance: from most room types and daily usage habits, most bathrooms are not well ventilated, and the bathroom is a bathing space, so there is more water. Under normal circumstances, the bathroom is a relatively humid place in the house, so the bathroom door must first have good moisture-proof performance and anti-deformation. Then look at transparency and privacy: the two are not contradictory, mainly that the bathroom door should be transparent but not see-through. The bathroom is a space with high privacy requirements except for the bedroom. However, since most of the bathrooms are relatively small, if the selected door has poor light transmission effect, the whole space will appear very dark after closing the door. Space makes people feel insecure.
Today I will introduce to you how to open the bathroom door. Common bathroom door opening methods include: swing door, sliding door, folding door, invisible door, etc.
1. The
advantages of the swing door:
(1) The swing door has been used as a tool to prevent wind and sand, and its sealing performance is better than other door opening methods.
(2) There is an extra layer of colloidal protection around the swing door, which can effectively isolate water vapor when the door is closed.
(3) As the most common way to open the door, the swing door is highly accepted by the public and is suitable for families with sufficient new houses.
Disadvantages:
(1) Because of frequent use, the swing door method has higher requirements for hardware accessories, otherwise it will be reduced. The lifespan of the bathroom door.
(2) The swing door does not make good use of the space area. It can only be carried out by pulling it flat. This method occupies a certain area and is not friendly to small units.
In general, there are still many families with swing doors in the family bathroom, but special attention should be paid to the direction of the door, whether it is an inner sliding door or an outer sliding door, depending on the type of bathroom door. For example, if the door of the bathroom is facing the corridor, it is better to push the door inward and open the door inward, which will neither occupy the corridor space nor bring moisture to the corridor, so that the corridor looks clean and tidy and avoid mold.
Pushing the door inside also has disadvantages. When the door is pushed inward, there must be an empty space in the bathroom, and nothing can be placed behind the door, which will occupy the interior space of the bathroom.
2.
Advantages of sliding doors:
(1) The sliding door occupies a small area, and the opening and closing are completed in the same plane, which can save a lot of space for bathrooms with small areas.
(2) If the sliding door adopts the hanging rail (that is, the upper part of the door is installed with the rail), it can not only reduce the accumulation of dust, the ground has no threshold and will not cause water stains and residues, but also reduce the phenomenon of family tripping, which is suitable for the elderly or children at home.
(3) The invisible sliding door handle can effectively reduce the bumping problems of the elderly and children.
Disadvantages:
(1) The sliding door is inseparable from the track. If you plan to use the sliding track (that is, the track on the ground), after using the bathroom sliding door for a long time, a lot of dust will accumulate on the track. In addition to the reasons of water vapor, it will even produce mold, which is more difficult clean.
(2) If it is not cleaned for a long time, the flexibility of the door will decrease.
3.
Advantages of folding doors:
(1) As a product of the new era, most of the folding doors are made of new materials, which are light in weight and easy to open and close.
(2) The size of the bathroom door opening is usually between 760-800mm. If the size of the door opening or the area of the bathroom is too small, you may try folding doors. The folding door adopts the method of one push to the end, which only occupies one side of the space, which can maximize the space saving and is very suitable for the decoration of new houses of small units.
Disadvantages:
(1) Folding doorways are stacked together, and it is easy to hide dirt and dirt in the middle, making it difficult to clean.
(2) The process of folding doors is more complicated, and the price is more expensive than ordinary doors.
(3) After the folding door has been used for a long time, the hinges and pulleys will age, and the gap between the door leaves will become larger and larger, which not only affects the thermal insulation, but also leaks privacy. If you live with your partner and the new house is not large enough, you can consider the way of folding the door when opening and closing the bathroom door.
When purchasing a folding door, you can look at the appearance quality. If you touch the frame and panel with your hands, if there is no scratching feeling, the hand feels comfortable, indicating that the quality of the folding door is good.
Also, the quality of the guide rails of the toilet folding door will also affect the quality of the door, so you should check whether the guide rails are smooth when buying, and at the same time, there should be an anti-pinch design to avoid injury when opening the door.
4.
Advantages of invisible doors:
(1) The biggest advantage of invisible doors is to hide the bathroom, and use the invisible door of the bathroom as a background wall or decorative wall, which can also improve the overall visual effect of the space.
(2) As a product of the new era, invisible doors are generally of high appearance and are suitable for those who pursue trendy designs for new home decoration.
Disadvantages:
(1) The invisible door is not made of door cover during the construction and production, it is easy to deform during the use process, and the invisible effect of the invisible door will become worse after a long time.
(2) For invisible doors without door cover protection, the contact surface between the door leaf and the wall will accumulate a lot of dirt over time, which is inconvenient to clean.
