Folding and Sliding Systems

درباره Folding and Sliding Systems

Folding glass is one of the most up-to-date products in the construction industry in recent years. The beauty of folding glass, also known as collapsible glass, has led to its increasing use in buildings over the past few years.

Folding glass systems are designed to make it possible to make the best possible use of spaces such as balconies, terraces, and similar areas. This system is designed so that the first panel is fixed while the remaining panels are movable. The movable panels move along an aluminum rail and eventually stack next to the fixed panel.

These glass panels are made of tempered (shatter-resistant) glass, and their thickness is usually 8 mm. Folding glass is used in spaces such as swimming pools, balconies, restaurants, and more.

Description

Folding glass systems have the ability to prevent the entry of dust and noise to a great extent, and their design acts as a barrier against wind and rain.

Folding glass panels can be stacked either to one side or to both sides. In this system, an aluminum rail profile is installed in the ceiling and another aluminum rail profile is installed on the floor, and the space is enclosed with a number of movable glass panels.

Since the first glass panel in this system is fixed and opens and closes like a door, while the other panels move along the rail one after another and are positioned perpendicular to the direction of movement next to the door, there is no limitation on cleaning the interior and exterior surfaces of the glass due to the rotation of the glass panels.

By using tempered glass and installing dust-proof plastic sealing strips, this system provides between 70 and 80 percent sound and thermal insulation and approximately 90 percent protection against the penetration of dust and similar particles.

In addition, highly durable aluminum alloy profiles are used in these systems, so there is no problem with rusting or deformation caused by temperature changes.

The folding glass system can be used for gazebos, greenhouses, balconies and terraces, swimming pool enclosures, restaurants, parking lots, store entrances, yards, conference halls, and all open spaces. It can also be installed as a partition. These systems operate in a folding (accordion-style) manner and can be used throughout all four seasons.

Benefits of the Balcony Glass System:

• Turning open spaces into usable living areas
• Matching and harmonizing with the building façade and creating a beautiful view
• Preventing the entry of noise, dust, insects, animals, and birds
• Helping preserve indoor energy through the use of special profiles
• Providing sound and thermal insulation through sealing strips

Features of Installing Folding Balcony Glass

1- With these glass systems, there will no longer be any obstruction between you and the outdoor view.

Another advantage of folding balcony glass is the view it provides. There will be no obstruction in front of your vision because the frames used when installing balcony and terrace glass do not have any columns or supports that block your view.

2- Protection and safety using folding balcony glass

The glass used in this system has high resistance to impacts, including thermal and mechanical stresses. At the same time, if the impact is strong enough to break the glass, it will not cause injury to residents. In fact, the weakness of non-tempered glass is its vulnerability to breakage. The tempered nature of balcony glass provides both terrace protection and occupant safety.

3- Protection against dust and harmful insects

The glass balcony of your home can prevent up to 99 percent of insects and dust from entering. The security provided by this glass system allows you to leave your home for a period of time without worrying about protecting your balcony and its installations.

4- The Effect of Balcony Glass on Reducing Energy Loss

Installing these glass systems is highly effective in controlling the amount of energy inside the space and preventing energy loss.

Price of Folding Balcony Glass

The price of folding balcony glass depends on various factors, including the area and volume of work, glass color and design, whether the system is frameless or framed, whether it is sliding or hinged, and the thickness of the tempered glass.

The factors that affect the price of balcony glass include:

  • Glass area and dimensions
  • Type and thickness of the glass
  • Glass color
  • Type of frame and hardware used
  • System type: sliding, hinged, frameless, or folding
  • Design and sandblasting on the glass
  • Installation and execution services

Types of Balcony Glass

1. Sliding Glass

This system consists of two sets of aluminum rail profiles installed on the ceiling and floor. Frameless tempered glass panels are attached to the profiles. These glass panels have a thickness of 8 to 12 mm and are highly durable. They can be easily opened and closed horizontally.

2. Folding Accordion Glass

This means that the glass panels stack on top of each other when they are opened and closed. In this system, the glass panels move easily and gather together in one place while occupying minimal space. This makes them easy to use.

Accordion balcony glass can be designed with or without frames according to the design of the house and your preferences.
