This design makes the sliding door more convenient to close.

The advantages and disadvantages of hanging doors:

Odd points①. The overall beauty is high and the visual effect is better.

The sliding position of the hanging door is not on the ground, so it will not be as easy to get dusty as the ground door. You need to wipe the sliding door regularly, which will save more effort when cleaning.

Disadvantages③. Unrestrained durability and high load-bearing requirements

The main disadvantage of hanging doors is poor durability. After long use, the friction between the door fan and the track will cause the door to move poorly, and even a swaying situation will appear. In addition, the suspension door needs to be supported by a load-bearing wall. If the wall is not solid, safety hazards may occur.
