Automatic thresholds for swing doors. Threshold or non-threshold system, what to choose? Sliding plastic door without threshold

Until recently, it was not possible to achieve the correct operation of a retractable structure without inserting a floor support. Engineering solutions of this type involved the installation of two profiles - upper and lower. Today, commonplace in the collections of leading brands aresliding interior doors without threshold . They are preferred by most customers, and it was they who made it possible to change the perception of roller systems as uncomfortable and unaesthetic.

They attract:

  • elegance and airiness of appearance - the lower part of the opening is not burdened by anything;
  • smoothness and uninterrupted operation - the upper rail does not collect dust and small debris. Various kinds of clogging, stuffing into the lower profile, risk significantly reducing the life of the mechanism;
  • the ability to provide an open view - nothing interferes with the integrity of the perception of space. When the sash is in the rest position, adjacent rooms are visually united;
  • comfort in operation. Moving through an opening blocked by a sliding door without a threshold is much more convenient - you don’t have to look under your feet.

How is the non-threshold principle implemented?

To save the structure from an additional track in the floor allowed:

  1. an innovative mechanism consisting of a rigid aluminum rail and high-quality rollers in a wear-resistant shell. Accessories are selected in accordance with the dimensions and weight of the canvas. For heavy sliding doors without a threshold made of laminated glass or solid wood, it is worth buying reinforced elements;
  2. a special profile attached from below to the end of the section. The task of this part is to prevent the sash from swinging, holding it in a strictly vertical position;
  3. smart installation. The key to a well-coordinated and durable work of the model is assembly and installation performed at a high professional level. When purchasing a sliding interior door without a threshold, the accompanying service should be entrusted to specialists. Qualified masters of Academy provide a full range of services and accompany them with guarantees.

Which systems do not require floor support?

The retractable mechanism determines the functioning of a number of modern engineering solutions. In their manufacture, different materials, coatings, decorative elements are used. They come in different sizes and even shapes. So, in the assortment of door factories there are products:

  • compartment type. The canvas is fixed in a suspended way, combined with a rail in a wall or ceiling. Such a sliding door without a threshold seems especially light and elegant, but has low insulating characteristics;
  • built into the wall. The advantage of the model lies in its compactness - it opens absolutely the entire area around the opening, making it possible to put furniture where the owner finds it convenient;
  • folding variety. This solution looks spectacular and original due to the presence of two segments in the canvas. To work, the book does not need a wall, which means that its installation can be carried out in narrow areas of the premises.

All options for sliding doors without a threshold at factory prices are offered by Academy.

In addition to saving free space, sliding interior doors can transform any interior. They are effective and draw attention to themselves. And if they have glass inserts, then they will certainly become the subject of admiration for your guests and relatives.

Sliding interior glass doors: functionality and comfort in your interior.

To begin with, consider what advantages compartment doors have:

  • more free space compared to a conventional swing door;
  • no need to set a threshold;
  • ease of opening and closing doors. Especially if you have a person with a disability.
  • match with any interior. They have a trendy look.

Now let's talk about the disadvantages:

  1. Does not create complete isolation from noise and sounds. However, if you attach an adjoining bar or single-leaf doors will drive into a special groove, then this will make them more soundproof.
  2. You will either have to make room next to the sliding door so that it and the furniture do not touch each other, or make a false wall (a special niche where the door will go).

Most often, interior compartment doors are installed in the kitchen or in living rooms, where great sound insulation is not needed. Sliding doors are also used to separate areas in large rooms, and to separate one room from another.

Glass

In addition to the main use of sliding doors as interior doors, if they are glazed, they can be placed in closets or dressing rooms instead of a mirror.

Tempered glass is installed in the interior sliding doors, which reduces to almost zero the possibility of injury when it is broken. On impact, it will shatter into many fragments, which will have blunt edges. So you don't get cut.

Or you can install laminated glass (triplex) at your place. In the event of an impact, it cracks, but does not crumble, thanks to the film that holds the fragments together.

You can install glossy, frosted, tinted glass. And also order from the manufacturer a reproduction on glass of any pattern or mirror surface.

Interroom compartment doors - convenient and stylish!

Mechanism, canvases, parking space

There are two types of sliding mechanisms:

  1. bottom guide roller. In appearance, it consists of a roller and a lower rail. In this case, the door itself rests on the lower rail. The top roller and guide only hold the door. The advantage of this mechanism is that it is more reliable. Minus - you may have difficulty laying the floor because of the rail.
  2. top guide roller. From the outside, it seems as if the door is hanging in the air, because the guide roller and rail are located at the top of the interior door. This eliminates the problem associated with the bottom rail.

Interroom single-leaf compartment doors consist of:

  • two wings;
  • three wings;
  • four sashes.

Their advantage is also that they can easily close an opening of any width, which is not possible for every swing door.

The part of the wall (pencil case) that limits the further movement of the open door is called the parking lot. Double-leaf interior compartment doors move apart both in different directions, having two parking spaces, and in one direction - one parking space. But single-leaf compartment doors are characterized by only one parking space.

Installation

There are two ways in which you can install interior compartment doors:

  • into the wall;
  • along the wall.

If you want your door to go into a special niche when sliding apart, even when repairing an apartment, take care to create the necessary false wall. Then, you should decide on the option of compartment doors and their sizes, because your future sliding interior compartment doors will have to be 5 cm smaller than the size of the niche in the false wall.

To install a sliding interior door yourself, you will need:

  • the door itself, which, both in height and in length, should be larger than the doorway from 5 to 7 cm;
  • related accessories: steel guide bar, fasteners, rollers;
  • wooden block with dimensions of 50 by 50 mm;
  • upper and lower trim;
  • a rack to which the door leaf will adjoin when the door is closed;
  • door handles;
  • two extras;
  • self-tapping screws;
  • anchors to attach the beam to the wall;
  • finishing nails.

Now let's look at the installation sequence of sliding interior sliding doors.

On the metal bar, drill holes at a distance of about 20 centimeters from each other, into which you will then put self-tapping screws. Attach the guide bar to the wooden beam with self-tapping screws.

To prevent the door from moving away from the roller, select a groove at the bottom of the door leaf in which the guide roller will rotate. Carefully, using a cutter or wood pen, make a hole to the hole. With the help of a chisel, remove all unnecessary.

To prevent independent opening and closing of compartment doors, fasten a wooden block with a plank only horizontally to the floor. Then put the rollers in the guide and fix the lower guide roller in the floor.

Make sure that the guide roller is exactly under the bar at the top, otherwise the door will not stand upright. Place the door leaf into the lower guide roller. Then attach it to the top rollers. To prevent the door from flying off the guide bar, attach the stops.

Using the corners, attach the box rack perpendicular to the floor. After installation, close it with extensions.

At the top and sides of the doorway, fasten the trim with finishing nails.

Only after the door is installed, put the handles. This is due to the fact that then you will not need to redo something.
And in the end, glue anthers on the canvases of interior doors.

Instructions for installing interior sliding doors without thresholds:

  1. It is important that you rotate the metal strips perpendicular to the door.
  2. Using a bolt and 4 nuts, put on the bearing.
  3. In order to drill holes for the anchor correctly with a puncher, make a preliminary fitting of the interior door leaf to the opening.
  4. In order to fix the door at the desired height and not keep it on weight, place something under the door leaf.
  5. Install anchors. On one of them you attach a steel rail, onto which a bearing is threaded, with a door leaf already attached to it. The second anchor is attached to the metal rail. In this case, you slightly raise the door.
  6. Install door handles if needed.
  7. To make the door move quietly, glue a strip of rubber on top of the steel rail.

Distinctive features of automatic thresholds

We offer you to buy automatic thresholds for interior doors of any size and configuration. They are usually made of aluminum profile with built-in rubber seal and springs. On the end of the canvas on the side of the loops there is a start button. When it is pressed, the spring is activated and pushes the seal, and this happens silently. The gap between the floor and the door closes.

What is the uniqueness

If we are talking about sliding canvases, then they should be slightly larger in size than the opening in the wall. The rails that are attached to the top of the opening should be more than twice as long as the door section for unhindered movement. The metal rail itself should be attached exclusively to strong long anchors.

It is important to remember that it is better to fill such door leaves with light materials so that it is easier for the ceiling guiding system to move on mounts with carriages. They are usually filled with glass. Thin (6-8 mm) glass will decorate the room in any style. Glass, which is most often offered to fill the door leaf, undergoes special heat treatment in its production - tempered, has a high level of strength and can withstand up to 75 kg of impact per square meter. of such glasses are often made and
