The door opening mechanism is the part that no entrance structure can do without. Users appreciated the new developments without the use of a door handle. This allows you to make the process more simplified, as well as give the door structure a visual flavor and originality.
Any mechanism is based on its own principle of operation. People give preference to them, not only guided by personal tastes, but also paying attention to the possibilities of the premises. After all, everyone tries to create for themselves the maximum comfort and convenience. Before choosing a door opening mechanism, it is worth understanding each type.
Swing
I don't have much to say about them - they are classics. Depending on the canvas, the price of such a design varies. This is the most common option. You need to purchase a special box with fittings, fix the door leaf. As a result, the door is securely held on its hinges. And the mechanism allows it to open freely andclose.
There are double and single types, in addition there are additional doors and different decorations. Most often, it is the input structure that looks like this. It is reliable and simple, say consumers in the reviews.
This door opens to the right or left side, depending on the needs of the owners. Most often, manufacturers make them universal, equipping them with the ability to mount hinges on either side. But before buying, you should decide exactly where the door will open.
Sliding
Compared to swing doors, this kind is more convenient. Sliding save space, which in this case does not need to be occupied to leave the room. If the room is small, then this is the only solution. The mechanism for opening the door is simple - they put bars with grooves along which the rollers move, opening the entrance or exit. There are a number of options for sale. We will consider them further.
Compartment door
It is fixed inside the opening, there are several small canvases available. One is stationary, and the second is active, or both canvases are in motion. The choice is made by the owners, taking into account the area of \u200b\u200bthe room.
Pencil case
There is only one leaf here, the whole mechanism is inside the opening. Most often found in bedrooms and living rooms. The mechanism of opening the door implies its entry into the opening, up to the handle. Often the room requires that all mechanisms be disguised - in such a situation, this is the best solution.
Each of the speciesdoor structures has a number of advantages. By turning on the fantasy, it's easy to create a unique design. Often the same mechanism is used in different forms. For example, a door-book is several canvases, alternately folding and unfolding. The accordion design features multiple slats that fold.
Although this option is convenient, it has a significant disadvantage. Reviews say that in the process of sliding the door there is a loud sound. The mechanism is located on one side, so after complete closure there are gaps, which reduces sound insulation. But these designs are constantly being improved, so you can find new, more successful designs in stores.
Unique rotation
Doors with a rotary mechanism have a simple device. The basis is the axis. The entire plant revolves around it. Reviews note the possibility of opening such a door from any side. It does not require a pen. In expensive models, there is a remote control, carried out using a remote control or a mechanism located on the wall. Before buying, you should decide which canvas is suitable, as well as in which direction you plan to turn.
But there is also a minus for such structures - it is difficult to mount this door with your own hands. Why is this happening? Because the principle of operation is simple, but the opening mechanism is complex. The design includes two main elements - hinged and sliding. Initially, movement along the rails begins, after which a turn is made around the axis.
If the room is small, this model will not be appropriate. When the room is large (shop, office), then this design will become its hallmark and will impress with originality. Where such constructions most often appear:
- When zoning of a room is required, but there is no wall that can become an obstacle to movement.
- When doorways are small.
- If children and infirm old people who need privacy live in the room.
Classification of doors according to the way they open is extensive. To make a choice, you will have to take into account many factors. How does a swing door open? It opens up in different directions. This is convenient - you can rotate the design to the right, left and forward, depending on the availability of free space.
During the movement, the canvas will not leave the box completely - the door takes a perpendicular position. One part will be inside, the other will be outside. No sounds are noted, and no effort is required. The shutter operates on the basis of a magnet, the door fits tightly into the frame, and no noise is heard in the room.
Pendulum
Pendulum - another version of the door opening mechanism. Types of structures can be different. What is the principle of their work? It assumes the presence of a special suspension that moves the canvas. The process of unwinding is to the side. The door opens easily and quickly, but takes a little longer to get into place. In a small room, it will not be possible to install this design.
Reviews on each mechanismare different because people do not always think carefully about what will be appropriate in a particular case. Everyone decides for himself, but modern developments are still the most in demand (for example, designs with a rotary mechanism), because they are easy to operate. The downward opening mechanism is interesting, but, according to user reviews, this is not very convenient. It is not always worth focusing on the recommendations of other people, since any room is individual, has its own purpose, size and design.
What should be the doorway
What are the door opening systems, it's easy to figure it out, but after that it's worth evaluating the opening. Not all doors can be mounted easily and quickly:
- The canvas is produced in a standard form, if it is not an individual order. Its parameters are 400 by 900 mm and its height is 2,100 mm.
- The box must be flat - no more than 4 mm error is allowed.
- An opening of various thicknesses is undesirable, this moment is evaluated over the entire area.
- The floor should be smooth, with a uniform surface.
With an individual approach, the design fits into the project, taking into account the mechanism and characteristics. When the work is carried out on an individual basis, any wishes of the client are taken into account. The door is installed after the completion of all repairs in the house or apartment.
Can there be any type of canvas
When choosing doors, you should pay attention to many nuances. This is not only an opening, but also what the canvas is made of. If this is a rotary mechanism, thenthe use of decorative glass on the surface is excluded. This is due to the gravity of the glass, which is unacceptable. Otherwise, the turning system will not work effectively. Although combinations with lighter material, such as plastic, are allowed. But the design decision can be any. The main thing is not to deviate from the general style direction. Professionals embody any style - high-tech, modern, classic, etc. At the same time, the canvas can be with two doors or a single one.
What to buy in the store for a complete set:
- Door leaf with rubber bands.
- The door frame with all parts.
- Rotor mechanism. These are levers, seals, fasteners, bushings, an axle, a stem and a lock in the form of a magnet.
- platbands with extension elements.
- If the thickness of the box is large, extras are used.
The specified set is enough to create a high-quality, beautiful door with a set of different functions.
When choosing a mechanism, you should pay attention to many things. The cost most often depends on the canvas. To save space, they choose an accordion door, and if style is important, then the rotary mechanism is a priority.
