Door and window decoration, how do novices choose? Teach you three tricks to get it done easily

1. How to choose doors and windows in different regions and climates?

Our country has a vast territory, spanning a wide range of longitudes and latitudes, different terrain levels, diverse temperature and humidity changes, and a complex regional climate system. As the connection point between the living room and nature, the selection criteria for doors and windows are also different.

(1) There are obvious climate differences between the north and the south. What properties should we pay more attention to when selecting doors and windows?

1. The north has a temperate monsoon climate, with hot and rainy summers and cold, dry winters with windy sand and haze. Therefore, when decorating doors and windows, we should pay attention to doors and windows with excellent properties such as thermal insulation, sealing and wind resistance, so as to ensure that they can insulate and keep warm in the severe cold winter in the north, and resist the howling north wind and wind and sand. When considering the design of door and window glass, it is recommended to use multi-layer insulating glass to maximize cold and heat insulation. In particularly cold areas, it is recommended to use high-end aluminum-wood windows.

2. The south has a mainly subtropical monsoon climate, with hot and rainy summers and mild and humid winters with heavy precipitation. Considering the "humid and cold" weather in the south and the "return to the south" factors, more attention should be paid to the watertightness and thermal insulation of doors and windows. In addition, the south is an area where meteorological problems such as typhoons and heavy rains are more common, so when selecting doors and windows, you should also pay attention to wind resistance and drainage functions.

The climate difference between the north and the south also determines the performance of doors and windows. Generally speaking, the north should pay attention to thermal insulation, heat insulation and wind resistance; the selection of doors and windows in the south should pay attention to air tightness and drainage function. So what components of doors and windows are mainly responsible for these functions? What aspects should we pay attention to? Let’s learn more↓↓↓

(2) Which door and window components should be focused on for the key performance of doors and windows?

Thermal insulation: Pay attention to the multi-cavity structure of doors and windows, cavity pouring materials, glass thickness, moisture-proof aluminum strips and other door and window components

Sealing: Sealing tape is the key to the sealing of doors and windows. Inferior sealing tape is more likely to age, corrode, crack, and fall off, which will lead to poor sealing of the window.

There are various types of rubber strips on the market, such as EPDM rubber strips, thermoplastic EPDM/PP rubber strips, and plasticized polyvinyl fluoride sealing strips. Currently, the best one should be EPDM rubber strips because they are resistant to aging and corrosion resistance. Corrosion-free, it can effectively block noise from entering the room, and its performance can still remain above 85% after 15 years of use. Moreover, the sealing performance of doors and windows is also affected by the sealing process of doors and windows. The use of integrated sealing of the entire frame can ensure superior sealing performance of doors and windows.

Many people ignore the glue injection of corner codes when decorating doors and windows, which will directly affect the sealing performance of doors and windows. The corner code is the part that connects the profiles. Generally, high-end system doors and windows use the pin injection glue connection method. It does not have a locator itself and needs to be fastened with two pins, which effectively solves the problem of the movable corner code being easily misaligned and loosened over time. The quality of the glue injection process is the key to airtightness.

Drainage system: There are concealed and non-hidden drainage systems on the market. Non-hidden drainage is to open drainage holes directly outside the profile for drainage, and the water is discharged horizontally. The drainage holes must be equipped with windshields to prevent wind howling and rainwater backflow. The hidden drainage system has a beautiful appearance. The drainage holes are vertically downward, and water is discharged by gravity. Rainwater can be discharged along the entire perimeter of the drainage holes. The drainage area is large and the speed is fast. If it is a rainy place in the south, it is recommended to choose doors and windows with hidden drainage systems for door and window decoration.

Wind resistance: This can be considered together with space, which will be discussed below, so I won’t go into details here.

2. How to choose between different spaces and environments?

(1) Selection of doors and windows for different spaces

The performance of door and window decoration in different spaces is different, which requires us to focus on and make choices when choosing. Next, let’s take a look at what should be paid attention to when choosing doors and windows for different spaces in the house?

1. Entry area - anti-theft security

As a high-frequency use area, the entrance area's safety, landscape, and convenience have become the primary considerations for people when decorating. Particular attention should be paid to the theft, anti-prying, and intelligence of door locks.

There are many smart locks now. It is best to choose a fingerprint lock that can be opened smoothly even if you forget the key or password. You can choose more online, or choose matching ones in a door and window store, and it usually won’t be too bad.

2. Living room—beautifully sealed

The living room is the facade of the room. When decorating the doors and windows, you need to consider the compatibility of the doors and windows with the home style, and at the same time improve the functionality of the living room. Therefore, the principle of selecting doors and windows in the living room is to be beautiful and practical. We should also pay attention to thermal insulation, ventilation and comfort, waterproofing and drainage, and all of these are closely related to sealing.

At the same time, the doors and windows of the living room emphasize ventilation, that is, "microclimate" adjustment. Those with a good budget can look at the micro-ventilation windows that have been popular in recent years, which are safe and comfortable. If the budget for door and window decoration is not that big, the most practical thing is to add optional Disassemble the gold steel gauze to prevent mosquitoes and is easy to clean; you can also choose a high-permeability gauze to easily block mosquitoes without affecting the line of sight, killing two birds with one stone.

3. Balcony - safe lighting

The balcony is an important place that connects the indoor and outdoor areas. It is also a place for drying clothes and quilts. Therefore, the lighting, safety, wind resistance, sound insulation and other functions of the balcony space cannot be ignored.

In terms of lighting, it depends on the choice of glass. We will talk about it below and mark it first. As for safety and wind resistance, attention should be paid to the connection parts of the central stile, corner code technology, etc. For sliding doors, you should also pay attention to whether there are anti-balance wheels, lifting handles, etc., which can increase the stability of the door. At the same time, choose doors and windows with anti-fall ropes to prevent doors and windows from falling at high altitudes and further improve safety performance.

4. Bedroom—soundproof and quiet

Bedroom doors and windows are the place with the highest requirements for sound insulation. As we all know, sound is transmitted through the air, so the doors and windows in this space are generally decorated with laminated glass or insulating glass. By blocking the propagation medium, they bring extremely high sound insulation effects. (Comes with cold and heat insulation), even if there are violent storms, lightning and thunder, or noisy square dancing, you can sleep peacefully in the bedroom.

5. Kitchen - ventilation

The function of the kitchen is to cook ingredients, and the space layout is not large, so it needs to focus on hygiene, cleaning and ventilation.

Therefore, when choosing kitchen doors and windows, you should choose ones with strong ventilation and air permeability, which has a lot to do with the way the doors and windows are opened. If the window is large enough, it is no problem to use a sliding window; if the window is relatively small, it is recommended to use a double outward opening.

In addition, some people are worried about oil fumes and will choose not to install screens; while some people are afraid of mice and must install screens. It is recommended to use removable screens, otherwise you will have a headache when it comes to hygiene during the New Year and holidays.

6. Bathroom – Ventilation and Privacy

The bathroom is used for daily washing. It is the wettest place in the house and is also a frequently used space. The decoration of bathroom doors and windows should pay attention to ventilation, so that the inside can be kept dry and less likely for mosquitoes and bacteria to breed, and at the same time, it can avoid odor in the bathroom.

It is recommended to use frosted or coated glass for doors and windows to ensure privacy and prevent prying eyes.

(2) Selection of doors and windows under different environmental conditions

1. Noise environment

Noise is extremely harmful to people's lives and bodies. According to surveys, noise above 50 decibels will have an impact on human physiological functions. If there is a lot of noise around the house, then when choosing doors and windows, you should pay attention to the configuration of door and window components such as three-glass and two-chamber design, sound insulation cotton filling, seamless welding strips for the entire frame, and anti-shock strips.

Different noise scenarios have different sound insulation requirements for doors and windows. You can refer to the following table data to have a specific understanding of the sound insulation performance requirements for doors and windows, and then make detailed selections. Here I recommend the Hannover 85 system windows from New Haoxuan Doors and Windows. I have seen the planed surface in their store. The multi-cavity and multi-dimensional strong barrier. I like quietness, so I chose this one. It is said that the sound insulation can achieve More than 45 decibels.

2.Lighting conditions

If you have high requirements for the overall lighting of the house, you can choose white glass when decorating the doors and windows. For example, the tempered glass cooperated by Xinhaoxuan and Taiwan Glass Group has a light transmittance of up to 99%; if the lighting conditions of the house do not want to be too bright, or if the low floors want to be designed to prevent prying eyes, you can choose coated glass.

In the fifth season of CCTV's "Secret Makeover", Liu Jifu's windows were made of this kind of glass. Because the old man's eyes were a little afraid of light, Xinhaoxuan Doors and Windows gave him Ford Blue coating with a visible light blocking rate of 44.2%. Glass. And because of the coating, you can see clearly from the inside but not from the outside. The anti-peep design further protects privacy and security.

3. Wind-resistant and stable

Most areas in our country are affected by the monsoon climate. There are strong northwest winds in the north in winter, and typhoons of magnitude 12 or above in the southern coastal areas in summer. These require us to be fully prepared for the wind resistance and stability of doors and windows.

Generally speaking, residences in coastal areas will face typhoons of level 12 or above. The wind pressure resistance level of doors and windows should be level 9. The glass configuration should be 5+20A+5mm or 5+27A+5mm.

If it is an ordinary outdoor seal with wind resistance, it is recommended to choose laminated glass, wire laminated glass or insulating glass, and the wind resistance level can reach level 5.

Xinhaoxuan doors and windows have done a good job in terms of wind resistance and stability. Their corner codes use German glue injection corner assembly technology to improve the structural strength and stability of doors and windows. The sliding doors and windows also use anti-balance wheels to prevent the fan panels from swinging and make them stable. Safe and not derailed.

3. How to match doors and windows with different house decoration styles?

In a world of diversified aesthetics, everyone has different aesthetics. So in terms of the aesthetics of door and window decoration styles, how should doors and windows of different decoration styles be matched? I mainly listed the following 4 common styles and selected some Door and window matching. I hope it will be helpful to everyone in your selection.

(1) Key points for matching different styles

1. New Chinese style

The new Chinese style pays attention to the elegance and implication of "blank space", but it fully combines the contemporary simple and comfortable aesthetics. Abandoning the cumbersomeness and complexity of the old Chinese style, the overall house design is decorated with simple design, rustic tones and Chinese feelings.

When decorating doors and windows, you can consider frame fans in white, light colors, or wood grain colors, which are more in line with the new Chinese home decoration style.

2. Japanese log style

Japanese style, also known as Japanese style, pursues a casual and casual artistic conception of life. The space shape is extremely simple, with clear lines in design, a strong sense of geometry, and a focus on practicality, uniqueness and naturalness. Abandon luxury and extravagance, and express the Zen spirit of elegance, simplicity and simplicity through artistic effects.

Japanese style gives people a sense of integration with nature, so native wood, wood grain, wood decoration, etc. are indispensable materials for Japanese style decoration.

3. Modern minimalist style

Minimalism is a design style that pursues simplicity. The minimalist decoration style can make people feel simple and neat. Minimalist style mostly uses extremely simple black and white colors and smart lines to create a simple, cold and quiet design atmosphere.

The minimalist decoration style in door and window decoration gives the entire space a clean and neat feel. The elegant black and gray color scheme is a common, versatile and generally unmistakable choice.

4. Simple European style

The simple European style follows the main elements of the classical European style and incorporates modern life elements. European-style rooms are not only luxurious, but also comfortable and romantic. Through perfect curves and meticulous attention to detail, they bring endless comfort to the family. In fact, harmony is the highest state of European style.

(2) Parts of doors and windows that affect style

The styles of doors and windows are mainly affected by the following door and window parts: door and window shape, door and window frame color, glass color, handle or lock.

1. Door and window shapes: Normally, they are regular square shapes. They are made according to the size, and the construction period is shorter. They are suitable for Chinese and modern styles. Of course, there are also some Chinese and European styles, and special-shaped doors and windows will be used, such as round, diamond, and round. Curved glass, etc., the decoration period of this type of doors and windows is longer, so you need to be mentally prepared and set aside a good amount of time.

2. Frame and sash color: Doors and windows are part of the space decoration. Different designs and different frame sash colors can be used to make the style of the whole house more unified and integrated more naturally, creating an immersive space experience.

3. Handles and locks: Handles and locks are not only the guarantee of the overall safety of doors and windows, but also often provide the finishing touch, which should not be underestimated. When decorating doors and windows, it is recommended to choose from three aspects: first, shape, second, color and texture, and finally, function.

The shape of door and window handles can be divided into arc-shaped and square handles. Generally, European-style or those that require a soft atmosphere, arc-shaped handles are often used; if it is modern, simple, industrial style, etc., square or linear handles are generally used. Everyone can choose flexibly according to their own needs and preferences.

The color and texture of the handle mainly match the overall style of the home and the color of the frame fan, and the effect is related to the material of the handle. Common materials include zinc alloy, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, plastic, logs, ceramics, etc. Nowadays, door handles commonly used on the market are made of zinc alloy. Due to its excellent plasticity, it can be designed into a variety of shapes, colors, and You can make some special shapes on it.

The last thing is the function. You can choose left or right handle according to the window type. The left and right handles of the inner opening handle are interchangeable. You can change the direction by changing the direction of the fork. It can meet the needs of inner casement bottom-hung windows and inner casement windows. Requirements for the use of doors and windows of different specifications. This requires on-site experience. Generally, designers at door and window stores will give you professional advice.

Finally, let me summarize again. The selection of doors and windows depends on the region and climate, the space and environment, and the style and matching. I hope that through my introduction, you will have a general understanding and direction of your own door and window decoration, and can provide some reference for your door and window decoration.

The weather is gradually getting warmer, and various merchants are also launching big promotions. Basically, March 15 is the biggest discount of the whole year. If you want to decorate, you should act quickly and get dressed early and move in early!
