Requirements for terraced doors
- Since the doors on the terrace are installed at the entrance to the house, then the main task is to ensure the safety of people living in it. Today there are many technologies that make even a glass door shockproof with reliable locks.
- The door on the terrace should be maintained, so one of the important criteria for the choice is thermal insulation properties. This is important especially in the conditions of harsh climate. Therefore, sometimes panoramic doors use as an inner design.
- Lighting at home. Terraced doors should not enjoy an additional shadow to the house, especially since in this place often the owners put indoor plants, which also need a lot of sunlight.
Best of all, these three requirements are combined in such types of doors leading to the terrace:
- Steel - represents a standard door to the terrace, the price of which is higher than that which is installed in the apartment, since it has a rather massive profile.
- Plastic - it is also called balcony, it has a window profile, accessories, loops, etc.
If you want to save, then for the terrace, choose a balcony door, opening inward. But the best option is the entrance door, which has its own loops, double glazing and multi-surgers. This door can be calmly close in the cold season, and in the summer it is to keep open or on air, it retains warmly and tightly closed.
Single-board doors on the terrace
These are the most common doors on the terrace. They can open as a single window or be swivel-folding. Maximum dimensions of the door leaf 240x160 cm. For a terrace, fittings are installed on the door, which has increased resistance to hacking.
Additional fittings for one-board door on the terrace:

- door opening limiter;
- blocking the discovery that holds the sash in the inclined position, so the door will not shortly shut;
- the mechanism that adjusts the tilt, it allows you to adjust the door in one of the seven positions.
Absolutely all doors on the terrace must be equipped with constipation that blocks the wrong handle position. In this case, with an open door, you can not shift the locking pin with the door handle. Then, with draft or in other cases, when there is an uncontrolled door closure, the door frame is not damaged by the trough.
Two terrace doors
The two-gas doors are separated by the door leaf horizontally using a structural element. It is located at the level of the window frame, it is approximately at an altitude of 80 cm. As a result of such a separation, the glazing of the canvas consists of two independent parts.
Such a horizontal element is needed for doors that have a height of more than 2.20 m with a white profile, and with color - for door cloths Over 2, 10 m height. This is due to the fact that plastic doors on the terrace under the influence of hot air are expanding much more than similar designs of wood. Especially if the plastic is dark. With quick heating and expansion of profiles, the door is deformed, so the design must be strengthened. This is especially true of a two-pylp door. If there is no horizontal middle element, then during deformations in the connecting places of the elements, the door canvas drops and will be thrown about the door frame. As a result of the voltage in the glass, a crack may appear.
Sliding doors on the terrace
Similar structures in recent years are becoming more and more popular. Especially their advantages accounted for the taste of the terraces with a large glazed opening. It does not hurt the design and a large area of \u200b\u200bglass sliding doors for the terrace, rather, on the contrary, they will become a rayminach. When opening the door, the cloth is slightly lifted up and smoothly departs to the side. In this case, only one canvas is moving, the second is fixed motionless. Even with a large weight in 300 kg of door leaf, the whole design moves easily.
With the help of sliding doors, it is possible to glazate the entire wall of the terrace, and it is possible to conditionally divide it into four parts, along the edges there are two deaf, and in the center - sliding. The maximum dimensions of the sliding door on the terrace - 3.23 x 2.67 m. On the edge of the deaf cavot, the bump stops are installed, they block the shock of the sliding part about the door frame. Also, elements against hacking are also installed in the design - these are pins, which cannot be removed, and roller mushroom-shaped pin. Examples of sliding doors on the terrace can be viewed in the photo.
Folding doors on the terrace
Such doors are universal and include the benefits of many types of terraced doors. The folding door can be located across the width of the wall. The guide on which the web is moving can reach six meters long. The width of each moving flap can reach the meter, so after the door is completely open, it will not take much space in the opening. The door folds like a harmonicker. Door features:

- at the end of the last sash, a swivel-folding frame is installed, which opens in the opposite direction. Thus, you can easily ventilate the room and at the same time not to move the canvas by the accordion. Such a frame is usually installed on a classic balcony door.
