The improvement of living environment requirements has made invisible doors that are less likely to damage the overall sense of space appear more frequently in homes. , briefly introduce several invisible door design methods that I think have stronger \”stealth\” capabilities:

Types of invisible doors

In my opinion, types of invisible doors Required fromFunctionalityandOpen modeTwo aspects of explanation can provide a more comprehensive understanding.

⑴according toFunctionality It is believed that invisible doors can be roughly divided intoCategory, Cabinet typeTwo kinds.

#Category:The invisible door style exists in the style of a \”door\”,Although it is more conventional , But the plasticity is strong, there are a variety of choices related to the \”appearance\” of the door in terms of shape, facing material, facing color, \”shape\”, etc., which can produce better \”integration\” with the wall where it is located, and can expand the wall The effect of area, butIf there is a gap between the door and the \”connected\” wall, The \”door shape\” will be clear at a glance, and the \”stealth\” effect will be greatly reduced.taken into account.

#Cabinet type: The invisible door style exists in the \”cabinet\” style, \”Confusing\”, because its functionality and \”appearance\” are \”nothing similar\” to the door, so \”just look at its appearance\” and the \”hidden identity\” of its \”door\” is not easy to \”see through\”, there are better \”Stealth\” effect;has \”three-in-one\”, the cabinet type \”invisible door\” not only meets the needs of the door in the home, but also meets the functional needs of the cabinet in the home. Using the position of the door to set up the cabinet also reduces the area pressure of the space, \”killing three birds with one stone\”, and \”three advantages\” \”in one\”…

Butits \”final\” weight(the weight of the cabinet itself + the weight of the items stored)May be larger,The choice of opening method will have certain limitations , and the depth is generally \”larger\” than the thickness of the door leaf of the invisible door, and the width is the same,Will occupy a larger area in the \”horizontal direction\”(That is, the width of the invisible door of the cabinet type × the depth of the cabinet > the width of the invisible door of the door type × the thickness of the door leaf). If it is set \”outside the door opening\”, it will have a certain impact on the space area.Extrusion\”, combined withdoor opening thickness, Space areataken into account.

⑵according toOpen modeI think invisible doors can be roughly divided into\”Flat opening”、\”rotary\”,“Push-pull type” 、\”Foldable”Four kinds. span>

#“Swing type\”:TowardInvisible door style that opens \”inside\” or \”outside\” the room, the completion of the \”door leaf\” Noodlescan be the same asThe finished surface of the wallpresent\”Phase equal\”state, making it easier to achieve the \”purpose of invisibility\” ”, when the finished surface of the door leaf is the same as the finished surface of the wallWhen using the same decorative techniques, the door may \”completely disappear\” ;butIt occupies space area, and will cause space area changes during use. Occupancy will also have a certain impact on the way the functions are set up. Consider the area of ​​the space in the direction of the door opening to avoid crowding;On the hingeThe \”dependence\” is high. This invisible door mainly relies on the \”vertical edge\” on one side of the door leaf ” is fixed to the door cover “installed” in the door opening through hinges, Hinge qualityhas a certain degree of correlation with its service life \”, poor quality hinges may cause the other \”vertical edge\” of the \”door leaf\” to fall over time, affecting normal use. The \”hideability\” of the hingeIt will also directly affect the \”invisibility\” effect of the door… taken into account.

Notes: In my opinion, the hinges used for swing-open invisible doors in home spaces generally haveInvisible hydraulic hinge (as shown in diagram 1) and Conventional ordinary hinges (as shown in diagram 2), Invisible hydraulic hingeAfter the door is completely closed, it is almost invisible and will basically not \”destroy\” the \”invisibility\” of the invisible door, butRegular ordinary hingeAfter the door is completely closed, some parts will still be exposed, thus becoming a \”flaw\” for the invisible door to be \”invisible\”, so take this into account.

#\”rotation\”:The \”top\” and \”bottom\” of the door leaf are installed at the \”top\” and \”bottom\” of the door opening respectively, through\”Rotate in place\”\”Complete\” open or closed invisible door styles,Door leaves can be formed into any shape angle, changing the direction of the \”entrance\” is full of fun. When two or more doors are opened at the same angle, it will also bring about partition decoration. effect, but whenThe width of a single door leaf\”greater than\” Door opening thickness, andtongmendong For a \”non-parallel\” relationship, it will occupy a certain area of ​​​​the space, which should be taken into account based on the space area.

#\”Push-pull\”: indoor opening \”Within\”orThe \”outside\” of the door opening relies on the wallThe invisible door style is used by using the \”upper track\” or the \”upper track + lower track\” to push and pull in a \”straight line\” to the side of the door opening. Since the \”door leaf\” moves \”parallel\” to the door opening during use, the Saving space,but span>The \”lower track\” is easy to accumulate dust and debris, which will affect its use; its sealing is poor and the privacy protection is \”weak\”; the finished surface of the door leaf cannot be flush with the finished surface of the wall, which will To reduce the \”invisibility\” effect of invisible doors to a certain extent… many \”disadvantages\” must also be taken into consideration.

\”Folding\”:Two or more doors can pass through The hinges are \”connected\” and pushed and pulled using the \”upper track\” or \”upper track + lower track\”, and ultimately can form an invisible door style in a \”superposition\” state. You can \”stop\” at any time during the opening or closing process of the door leaf, the door becomes a \”partition\”, decorating the space and making the space \”divided and continuous\”, but whenWidth of a single door leaf\”Greater than\”Door opening thicknessWhen,After fully openingOrduring the opening processIt will occupy a certain area in the space where it is located, taking into account the space area;

The \”invisibility\” of invisible doors

In my opinion, the \”invisibility technique\” of invisible doors in home spaces is commonUse \”color\”、Use material, Use decorative doors、Use wall panels for styling,andwith cabinetSeveral design methods, combined with doorsThe wall decoration method、The space effect you want to create、 Functional requirements, Family members Preferences, etc.Select, brief description:

⑴Use \”Color”

DoorAllorPartarea and the wall Allor\” uninterrupted \”Area(Refers to the \”connection\” area between the door and the wall) Choose the same finish color, the door is \”pulled\” into the wall, and its \”real body\” disappears and becomes a part of the wall, which has the \”effect\” of \”diminishing\” the presence of the door and enhancing the overall sense of the wall.If you \”extend\” this color to the wall \”connected\” to the wall where the door is located, you can \”eliminate\” the \”speciality\” of the wall where the door is located, reduce the \”attention\”, and make it harder to find…

▲door The same orange color was chosen for some areas and the \”uninterrupted\” areas of the wall…

In my opinionColorCan be combinedWant The spatial effect created,Other \”parts\” of the space (such as floors, walls, etc.)Colors already used in soft furnishings and soft furnishings(pay attention to the color matching in the same space), Family members\’ preferences, etc.Select ; Invisible doorOpening modeSelect to make the door and wall finish surface \”flat\” \”Flat opening type\”, \”folding type\”, and \”rotating type\” are better. You can choose either door type or functional type, but the door type has better effect.

⑵Use material

In my opinionthe \”face\” of the doorAdoptSame finishing material as the wall where it is located(Here generally refers to decorative materials with distinctive \”characteristics\”, such as wood, wallpaper, wall coverings, cultural stones, real stone paint, etc.) \”Burying\” the \”specialness\” of the door with \”uniformity\”, although It may not have the same \”detailed elements\” such as the same size, the same shape, etc., and it may be slightly \”rough\”, but it can also achieve a certain \”invisibility\” effect, butThere is a gap between the door and the \”connected\” wallorThere is a \”height difference\” on the finished surface(such as the completion of the sliding door and The \”height difference\” of the finished surface of the wall) is its \”Achilles\’ heel\”, which should be avoided or \”weakened\” as much as possible during design and construction.

I think the invisible door optionCategoryMore suitable; span>Open modeYou can choose it at will. It should be noted that when the facing is made of heavier materials such as stone and ceramic tiles, attention should be paid to the installation of the door leaf. The firmness prevents the \”vertical edge\” from falling over time.

⑶Use highly decorative doors

Door options such as \”partition\” doors, folding doors, revolving doors, etc.More decorative styles, use \”good looks\” to \”arm\”, \”weaken\” its functional \”nature\”, and make it a \”decoration\” to \”dress up\” the space, which can produce an \”invisible\” effect to a certain extent. .

⑷Use wall panels for styling

Easy-to-operate, simple, fashionable, high-end, and versatile \”temperament\” makes wall panel modeling one of the commonly used methods of \”hiding doors\” in home spaces, The wall is planned to have a \”protagonist area\”(For example, the TV wall is an area specially designed for hanging and placing TVs + placing TV cabinets)when,OrIf the size allows, use the \”main character area\” The \”vertical\” center line is the central axis, with symmetrical styles and the same size on both sides of it, and a wall panel shape that can ensure the normal use of the door;orIf the other areas of the wall where the door is located that are \”connected\” to the door (the area \”connected\” to the door except the \”main character area\”) also adopt the wall panel shape, the wall panel at the door position should be The same shape (preferably the same size)… is more commonly used;

Make shapes symmetrically on both sides of the \”center area\”

The door adopts the same wall panel shape as the \”connected\” area

Make shapes symmetrically on both sides of the \”center area\”

The \”protagonist area\” is not planned on the wall,When treated \”equally\” , or\”Ignore\” the width and height of the door, and shape the wall as a whole; orWith the width of the door as one of the widths\”Unit style\”Reuse it on the wall to \”confuse\” the door. If the shape can also take into account the height of the door and prevent the height of the door from being discovered, the effect will be better;orThe \”whole wall\” adopts a \”grid shape\” with a smaller width of \”line\”, a \”top-to-bottom\” height, and equal or unequal spacing, and uses the distance between adjacent \”lines\” to \”hide\” both sides of the door The gap between the \”vertical edge\” and the wall will \”weaken\” the existence of the door. If the height of the door is the same as the height of the shape, the gap between the \”horizontal edge\” above the door and the wall will also be \”eliminated\” , the effect is better…more commonly used;

Make the shape of the wall as a whole

Use the width of the door as one of the widths of the unit shape to create the shape

Unequally spaced grilles are terrible

Grid shapes with equal spacing

CombinedThe space effect you want to create, Family member preferences, The area of ​​the wall where the door is located, etc. Select; I think the invisible door optionCategoryMore suitable, Opening modeSelect to make the door and wall finish \”flat\” \”Flat opening type\”, \”folding type\” and \”rotating type\” are better.

⑸Use cabinet

TakeorSet the cabinet \”separately\” at the door position, orTreat the door and the wall where it is located as \”one body\”, and design at least the position of the door into the cabinet shape, etc. Use the cabinet as the \”door\” to \”supplement\” the home The use function can also produce a \”stealth\” effect;Opening methodI think the choice is relatively stronger\”Push-pull type” and\”Rotary” is more suitable.

The use of invisible doors

Invisible doors are more commonly used in the following situations in home spaces, but they are not limited to these and can also be combined with the space effect you want to create. , homeSelect its availability based on family member preferences, etc.:

◆\”Maintain\” integrity. For walls with doors, invisible doors can better \”maintain\” the wall The integrity of the door can effectively avoid the small area of ​​the wall and uncoordinated proportions of the wall shape due to the \”independence\” of the \”door\”.

◆\”protect\” space. In more private or important spaces at home, such as bedrooms, private study rooms, and Invisible doors are used in safe storage rooms, etc. Without the \”entrance\”, the space can be \”disappeared\”, thereby \”protecting\” it.

◆Reducing \”conflicts\” When the home space is equipped with such as the entrance door opposite the bathroom door/bedroom door, the bathroom door facing the dining room, and the bathroom door facing the bed When the house type is considered to be a \”conflict\” at a psychological level or in terms of privacy protection, by using the invisible door design, the door \”does not exist\” and the \”conflict\” can be alleviated to a greater extent.

The above are my suggestions and opinions on the design of invisible doors. Choose a suitable method so that you can’t even find the door. I hope it can help you, thank you!
