In foreign countries, many self-built houses or villas are not like the ones in China where many people live in community houses. They pay attention to the entrance hall, but abroad pay more attention to the front door! The biggest design highlight of this foreign high-ceiling villa is its door. The entire top-to-ceiling glass door is nearly 5 meters high. Domestic netizens complained: The glass is not strong, so are you not afraid of thieves entering your home?
In our impression, glass doors are indeed inferior to steel doors or security doors, and these 5 meters high, After a long time, will it automatically crack due to exposure to the sun and rain, rendering it useless?
In fact, the glass I chose is tempered glass, which is safety glass and has good resistance to wind pressure, cold and heat, etc., so it will not be easily affected by the natural environment and weather. However, if it is deliberately damaged by humans, That’s another story.
Moreover, villas and self-built houses like this abroad will also have a layer of protective doors outside, gates enclosed by yards and gardens, double-door mode, and There are security guards on board, so there will generally be no theft. Although the strength of the tempered glass itself meets the standard, the steel structure is wrapped here, and steel bars are installed on the diagonal to seal the edges and stabilize the glass, and also facilitate manual opening and closing.
The entire top-to-ceiling glass door actually exists as a glass exterior wall. The light-transmitting properties of glass are fully displayed here! Covering the entire second floor, it can maximize the introduction of more light into the first and second floors, so you don’t have to worry about indoor lighting, even if there are no windows.
However, this also exposes its shortcomings. Although glass transmits light well, if it is transparent, it is not conducive to protecting privacy. All activities of family members indoors will be exposed. It is outside, so it is recommended to install curtains inside the glass door. At night, it will have a blocking effect and also make you feel safer~
In addition, in order to fully open the 5-meter-high glass door, a flat-opening design was chosen. Because the door is tall, it can only be opened outwards and cannot be opened outwards. Open inside, otherwise it will take up a lot of space indoors!
Lastly, compared with steel doors, glass doors have a more fashionable appearance and higher appearance. Glass materials are the most popular choice for decoration of villas and bungalows. The 5-meter-high glass door is twice the size of ordinary glass floor-to-ceiling windows. In winter, you can bathe in the sunshine indoors without going out. But in summer, you really need to install sunshades. Double-layer is best for heat insulation, heat preservation and sound insulation!
