1.The type of balcony.

Not all balconies can be sealed. Before sealing the balcony, you must first understand what type of balcony your balcony belongs to:

1) Convex balcony.

It refers to the balcony protruding from the outer wall of the floor, which is a common type of balcony;

The convex balcony is not very load-bearing and cannot be used as a storage room. If you want to seal the balcony, you need to close the three walls and fix the support by "turning the corner column";

It is important to note that enclosed balconies do not store heavy items.

2) Concave balcony.

The balcony and the exterior wall of the floor form a plan, which is visually more stable and safe;

Since there is no corner, the construction difficulty is relatively simple, as long as one side is closed;

The load-bearing capacity of the concave balcony is much better than that of the convex balcony, and it can be used as a storage room for a long time after being closed, and there is no need to worry about the danger of collapse.

3) Composite balconies.

Its style combines the characteristics of convex balcony and concave balcony, half convex and half concave;

It takes into account the advantages of both and has a certain stability and security;

After the balcony is sealed, the layout planning of the usable space of the composite balcony is also more flexible.

For balcony decoration, most people will have a headache: should you seal the balcony? For this reason, I went to interview a number of owners and found that many owners who did not seal the balcony were crying with regret! Next, I will tell you about whether the balcony is sealed or not.

Is the balcony sealed?

Of course, it should be sealed. Why? See what these owners have to say:

The dust is big, and the old house has tried not to seal the balcony before. As a result, the balcony was dirty for three days and I didn't want to go out. ”

@落雪. Downstairs is next to a small river, there are many mosquitoes in summer, plus considering hygiene, seasonal winds and other reasons, it is still closed. ”

@wang in order to raise cats, he was afraid of falling from the building, so he sealed the balcony. ”

@laura

The balcony was sealed when the house was handed over, and the window sill was still very high, so I treated it into tatami mats, which reduced the sense of closure of the high window sill. Clothes are dried, so the tatami mats can be used as a resting platform. ”

@哎呦呦. How to seal the balcony?

1.Half wall + sliding window.

The most conventional way to seal the balcony is to seal the wall in the lower part and fix the upper part as a sliding window. As shown below:

The walls are painted in dark colors, with white cultural brick walls, white shutters, and white laundry cabinets, which are refreshing and not monotonous.

2.Full-sided glass windows.

Some houses have balconies that are not built with walls, but with railings. In this way, a whole glass window can be installed, which can play a closed role without affecting the daylight.

The balcony is paved with wooden floors, and the whole glass window is protected from wind and rain, so there is no need to worry about the wooden floor getting wet on rainy days, which will shorten the service life.

The glass windows in the upper part are equipped with railings for greater security.

How to design the balcony

No matter how large the balcony is, as long as it is designed, it can be transformed into a laundry area, a leisure area, a storage area, a work area ......

1.Balcony storage area.

2.Balcony work area.

3.Balcony relaxation area.

4.Balcony garden.

1. The decoration of the balcony needs to be sealed, the balcony is very good, and the most important problem is that the safety is guaranteed, and there is no need to worry about children being naughty. And the living environment will also become better. Even if there is dust outside, the noise of the cherry blossoms will not be affected.

2. The decoration balcony does not need to be sealed, because after the balcony is closed, it is not conducive to the drying of clothes, and it will also cause indoor air circulation.

What do you need to pay attention to when decorating a balcony?

1. The load-bearing problem of balcony decoration.

The balcony is suspended or semi-suspended, so the load-bearing capacity of the balcony directly determines the safety of the balcony. For the owners of the renovation, when designing, whether the balcony is put into the kitchen, or used as a drying room or sports area, it is necessary to consider whether the balcony can withstand the weight required for daily life. For example, if you want to place a treadmill on the balcony, you need to fully consider the falling gravity caused by the weight of the family members, plus the pressure brought by the treadmill itself to the balcony, so it is recommended to consult the load-bearing range of the property balcony before making the design.

2. Material selection for balcony decoration.

The balcony is an area facing the outside world, so the materials used for the balcony should be able to resist the erosion of the atmosphere and rain and prevent pollution. Brick and reinforced concrete balcony surfaces can be plastered, or paved with cylinder bricks, plastic plates, inlaid with marble, metal plates, etc. The outer edge of the bottom of the balcony can be plastered with lime mortar within 80 100 mm, and dripping water can be added.

Wooden handrails should be painted to prevent corrosion, and metal fittings should be treated with anti-rust.

3. Waterproof and drainage problems of balcony decoration.

The balcony is a relatively exposed space, so it is the first to be affected in rain and snow, and if the waterproofing is not done well, it may cause leakage. Especially if the balcony is used as a laundry room or flower planting room, there will be more water, and if the downstairs neighbor wraps the balcony indoors, then it will be more troublesome. Therefore, do not destroy the waterproof layer of the balcony when decorating, if you need to use water, it is best to do waterproof treatment, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble in the future, and then repair it is even more troublesome.

4. Insulation problems of balcony decoration.

Nowadays, most of the designs in order to expand the indoor space, will open up the balcony and connect it with the room, but many people will destroy the original insulation layer when opening the balcony, although the living area has expanded, but the balcony floor filling and insulation problems will also follow. Therefore, when opening up the balcony, attention should be paid to thermal insulation, such as the use of double glazing, the choice of plastic steel window material, etc.
