Between the living room and the balcony, in addition to installing a door, what other ways can be se

The balcony of the home is ready to be directly connected to the living room and incorporated into the living room, making the home more spacious." It is estimated that many people have such ideas, but it is not so simple to get through, first of all, it depends on whether the sliding door should be removed, then whether the door buttress should be smashed, and finally how to design.

Why do you need a sliding door between the balcony and the living room?

The division of space is clearer: the balcony and living room can be well divided, and guests at home are not embarrassed when they are usually drying clothes.

Warmth and home cleanliness: the role of the sliding door is equal to more protection, which can keep warm and insulated in the face of seasonal changes; In addition, it can prevent dust from entering the home.

Therefore, if your house has a high floor, there are other balconies responsible for drying clothes, not facing the street, and the balcony is sealed with broken bridge aluminum thermal insulation, the effect is very good. If you do not meet the above requirements, it is recommended to install a sliding door.

Regarding the door buttress, the removal of the door buttress also depends on the situation: the door buttress between the outer balcony and the living room is a load-bearing structure and cannot be removed; The buttresses of the inner balcony are removable; There is also a special situation, that is, there is a half wall between the balcony and the living room of some houses, and this wall also has a load-bearing effect and cannot be removed.

According to the above, there are three situations between the living room and the balcony: there is a door between the balcony and the living room, and there is a door buttress between the balcony and the living room, which is completely open to the living room. There are different design approaches for different situations.

However, it should be noted that as long as the door is not installed, the balcony only has a leisure function and cannot be used for drying clothes.

Install the door between the living room and the balcony: If the living room and the balcony are directly installed with the door, there are more sliding doors, especially in recent years, the black frame sliding doors with relatively high appearance can be matched in various styles. If you are worried that the sliding door has a hygienic dead angle, you can directly groove it in the ground and embed the track into the ground.

Folding doors are also a good choice, compared with sliding doors, folding doors will make the balcony open more open, when not in use, receive one side, and pull it up to perfectly divide the space.

There is a doorbuttress between the living room and the balcony: in this case, you can directly put a whole cabinet behind the doorbuttress to increase the storage space in your home.

The living room and the balcony are fully connected: if the living room is relatively small, the balcony is its spare area, and the single sofa is placed to make the balcony completely part of the living room. Or simply arrange the balcony as a separate lounge area, and design it whatever you want.

Install a curtain, this curtain can be cloth, can also be some good-looking bead curtains, so that it is very beautiful, and it is also very convenient and practical.

The balcony and the living room are decorated with a semi-partition that does not affect the lighting, and the balcony can be used as an independent space, which can be used as a flower room, a study, and a drying room. Divide the space with partitions while keeping the space transparent.

Of course, you can also install a three-dimensional cabinet to separate, because you can also put some sundries and other things in the three-dimensional cabinet, of course, the three-dimensional cabinet can not all use the closed type, otherwise it will have an impact on the lighting, in addition to this, you can also install a fish tank to separate, which can not only bring vitality to the whole home but also will not affect the lighting of the living room.

The balcony and living room are adjacent spaces, and a glass sliding door is installed between the conventional balcony and the living room.

Although the conventional glass sliding door can balance the openness and closure of the space well, the closed door can divide the space, block the external noise, and play a role in thermal insulation, and the transparent glass material will not affect the lighting of the living room. However, the glass sliding door has a fatal drawback, that is, the slide rail on the ground is a sanitary dead corner, and it is difficult to clean up the hair and dust if it falls in.

Coupled with the diversification of modern people's use of space, simple sliding doors can no longer meet the needs of young people. So, can there be any other design between the balcony and the living room besides the sliding door?

Folding doors have all the advantages of sliding doors, but they are better than sliding doors. After the folding door is opened, the door can be received to the side to achieve complete transparency between the balcony and the living room, which is a good choice for small apartments that want to divide the space but have poor lighting and ventilation.

The opening between the living room and the balcony is generally thick, so you can make a small bar counter based on this thickness. Whether you want to use the bar for office work or other functions, it is a very practical design.

However, it is best to have the underside of the bar suspended so that it does not block the light from the balcony from entering the living room.

Of course, if the balcony is large and is not afraid of affecting the light, you can also build a half-partition wall, so that the balcony suddenly becomes a more functional space, which can be used as a dining table or desk.

If you plan to use the balcony as a relaxation area, you can install a booth on the balcony and use the backrest of the deck as a partition between the living room and the balcony, as shown in the picture below.

As for the glass window above, you can decide whether to install it or not according to your own needs.

Installing curtains between the balcony and the living room is an economical, simple and effective option. The curtains can be opened and closed at will, which can not only separate the space, but also dry the clothes directly on the balcony without affecting the appearance. It is suitable for both large and small apartments.

In many cases, the buttress of the balcony is a load-bearing wall and cannot be removed, so it can also be combined with the decoration style of the home to make the buttress more designed.

Make the door buttress into an arch shape to bring texture to the home, or make it round to bring a Chinese Zen artistic conception. In this way, the door buttress can also be transformed into a decoration of the space.

The simplest thing is to do no design, integrate the living room and balcony, both as an "extension" to each other's space, to achieve the effect of expanding each other's space.

Summary: As people now pursue more and more product differentiation, the connection between the balcony and the living room is no longer limited to the design of the glass sliding door.

Open layout designThe open layout design mentioned here is to completely remove the original sliding door of our balcony, and open up the living room and balcony to form a whole, becoming an open living room and balcony. The biggest advantage of this open layout design is that it increases the space in the interior and makes the interior more transparent. For small apartments, this approach is actually very good, of course, large apartments can also be chosen.

It can be set up as a bar where you can drink tea and the view is beautiful.

It can be designed as an open layout, with a balcony and living room as one, or a bar counter at the location of the sliding door.

There are two scenarios about this Q&A:

1. Open balcony: that is, if the balcony is not sealed, it must be a door, which is related to the safety of daily living. For example, weather conditions, wind and rain will inevitably affect the interior, if the rain invades, it will even cause the whole house to soak or harm the downstairs neighbors, the loss is huge.

If there are children at home, then it is even more necessary, to avoid falling objects from high altitudes, which is extremely dangerous; There is also the personal safety of the child, in case of curiosity to climb and fall, it will cause indelible regrets in life.

The open balcony is retained, which avoids a large amount of money for the installation of closed windows and saves a lot of decoration budget. Some communities are not allowed to change the image of the façade, otherwise the decoration deposit is non-refundable. Therefore, it is best to consult clearly before making any major decisions about decoration.

Personal life needs: If you like to dry on a daily basis, it is also important to keep the balcony open by doing the door, the breeze is gentle, the sun shines warmly on the clothes, leaving the fragrance of the day, which is difficult to enjoy on the closed balcony, because the independent closed balcony design, basically can not escape the stuffy environment, you may not have the desire to enter the balcony.

2. Closed balcony: The closed design of the balcony makes the balcony an independent space. If you don't design a partition between it and the living room, you don't have a door to expand the living room space, so I don't need to explain too much about the benefits, right?

The usable area of the house is expanded, the living room is more open, and the curtains are better shaded to avoid the heat of the sun.

If it is closed with large pieces of glass, it will bring an excellent natural landscape and become a natural botanical garden for children, and parents will talk about the beauty of natural life on the side. Or build a children's playground or a parent-child paradise, and become a small world of family happiness, think about it.

Therefore, whether the balcony should be a door or not depends on the design of your balcony. Closed balconies, no doors; Open balcony, must do door. Hope it helps.

In fact, there is no need to make a door, just seal the whole balcony, and this is good. Overall, it is also relatively good-looking, and it will appear that the living room is particularly large.

It is recommended to make a sliding door that closes at night to isolate the noise from the outside, so that you will not be disturbed by the noise outside when you sleep at night.

There is no need to make a door, if you do a door, it will seem too exaggerated, and it will also take up space, so it is better to go directly.

1. Balcony sliding door (or lifting sliding door). The balcony sliding door is the choice of the public, the sliding door does not take up space, which is convenient for the United States to widen the view, and the two worlds are separated by a collection and a release. The lifting sliding door is more powerful, with both inverting function, which can still be ventilated without opening the door, and it is more airtight and aesthetically pleasing when closed.

However, there are also certain disadvantages of sliding doors: the maximum opening area of sliding doors is half, and they cannot realize the function of fully opening.

2. Single door. Individually form a small enclosed space, but do not like the shade, you can leave a door and a window for the balcony, so that you can take care of the light without worrying about the small world being disturbed.

3. Folding balcony door. The folding door is a very good choice, the folding door itself is more flexible, the open space is larger, the ventilation and lighting are very prominent, and the shape and style are also very beautiful. For relatively small home decoration, the use of this transparent folding door can increase the sense of space and blend with the overall match, and it does not take up space.

Whether it is necessary to do the partition between the living room and the balcony is also judged according to the individual's family type, if it is a small apartment, you can not do the partition, in order to expand the use of the area, but also to increase the lighting of the living room, so that the space has a unified feeling, and if the home environment is relatively large, if you want to do a good job of sound insulation, you can consider making a partition. If necessary, you can install the swing door of the balcony, there are generally three kinds of sliding doors and folding doors, of course, which one to choose is also installed according to your own choice. For example, sliding doors are also a form commonly used in many families, and various styles can also be matched, folding doors will make the whole space look more open, and you only need to close it aside when you want to open the window for ventilation, which can maximize the use of the entire space.

If some units or spaces are not large, it is best not to install partitions, which will make the entire space area have a sense of extension, and it can allow light to penetrate into the living room, making the whole living room look brighter and more transparent. But in daily life, don't put some large furniture or some sundries on the balcony, otherwise it will make the whole space look messy, like some people may dry clothes on the balcony, then the guests at home will be more embarrassed, at this time you can install soft curtains for partitions.

If you make a partition on the balcony, you can first divide the area between the balcony and the living room, and it can also keep the living room warm, and it can also protect the home is tidy, especially in winter, if there is a partition, it can make the temperature of the whole room rise, and it will not be so cold. When making balcony partitions, it is best not to use solid walls or all partitions, otherwise it is easy to block the light, so it is recommended that you use glass sliding doors to partition, in addition to using doors as partitions, you can also use cabinets, which can not only look more beautiful, but also increase a certain storage effect.

Finally, you need to choose according to your own house style, and don't blindly trust other people's opinions.

For units with sufficient living room area, it is more practical to set up sliding doors. It is not polluted by external dust, rain and noise. Of course, the living room space after the partition is also more private.

Low-rise homes (especially those below 5 floors) are best separated between the living room and the balcony. The air quality is poor, and dust is easy to get into the room. If left unshaded, dust accumulates on windows every day, staining washed clothes with dust and posing a health hazard.

There is a partition between the balcony and the living room, which can effectively prevent the entry and invasion of thieves and ensure the property and personal safety of the home.

For families with children, the safety of the children is more assured if zoning is carried out. From the perspective of practicality and cost performance, it is enough to choose a metal sliding door, that is, the commonly used aluminum-magnesium alloy sliding door. **Not too expensive, good quality, relatively durable.

For residents living on the side of the road, the retention of the balcony door can reduce some of the noise and dust bothering and is not recommended to be removed. With one more door, the soundproof, heat, and dustproof effects are increased. Thermal insulation, heat insulation in summer, saving electricity and energy consumption of air conditioning; In the cold winter, balcony doors can help protect against the wind, frost, rain and snow outside.

If you don't have a door, the balcony from the living room is not beautiful. Outdoor dust is easy to enter the living room, and the insulation performance is poor. In many of the renovation cases we have seen, the partition between the living room and the balcony can be said to be dispensable.

In a traditional décor, the living room and the balcony are two different areas. There are generally special partitions. Almost all of them choose glass sliding doors as partitions, and some small families directly use curtains as partitions.

But with the change of people's aesthetics, in fact, more and more people will open the living room and balcony without separating each other.

Partitions have some benefits, keeping warm in the winter and closing the balcony door in the winter, the home will be much warmer. It also reduces noise. If it is a unit facing the street, an extra door can block part of the sound, and the effect is still relatively obvious.

Our washing machine was generally placed on the balcony. Having a washing machine means having a sewer. At this time, it is better to have a partition.

Light is the intuitive feeling that comes with the living room. If there is no partition and no space to distinguish, the clothes hanging on the balcony can be seen clearly, and the dust from the outside can easily enter the living room. These problems can be avoided separately!

In the hot summer, the partition can play a certain role in thermal insulation. In the cold winter, the room is much warmer when the sliding door is closed. Low-rise residential buildings, especially those below 5 floors, have low floors and relatively poor air quality.

It is best to make a partition between the living room and the balcony to block out the inflow of dust and keep the room clean. If it is a floor with poor lighting, do not set up partitions. If you need to divide the space, you can consider transparent factors, such as transparent sliding doors, half-height partitions, curtain splits, etc.

To separate.
