Sliding door is used more in our life, often used in the kitchen, balcony and toilet and other places. The sliding rail of sliding door has two different installation positions: one is installed at the top, and the upper pulley is used to bear the weight of the door leaf, which is called hanging sliding door; the other is that the pulley is installed on the ground, and the lower pulley is used to bear the load, so it is more stable, which is called the sliding door. So what is the difference between the floor sliding door and the hanging sliding door? What are the differences between the floor sliding door and the hanging sliding door? Let's take you to understand the relevant knowledge. 1. The difference between the floor sliding door and the hanging sliding door
There are differences in appearance. The sliding door track is installed on the ground, and the pulley above is driven to move by the pulley below, thus driving the opening and closing of the whole door leaf. The sliding door uses the ground load-bearing, no matter how many the door leaves are, it will not fall down, and it is more stable. It is commonly used in kitchens, toilets and other places. The sliding door track is installed on the top, and the door leaf is stretched by the upper hanging wheel movement. The whole door leaf is loaded by the upper hanging wheel. The door leaf moving in this way is called the hanging sliding door. Hanging sliding door is often used in bedroom, study, dining room and other places, the overall decoration is more beautiful.
The installation position is different. The installation of floor sliding door and hanging sliding door are relatively simple, and there are differences only in the installation position of track. When installing the sliding door, first fix the track on the ground, then install the sliding rail matched with the door leaf, and finally fix the sliding door on the track. In order to install the hanging sliding door, we need to fix the track on the wall with long screws, then install the hanging rail above the door, and finally hang the door on the track. What we should pay attention to is: as the sliding doors are wall bearing, the wall must be load-bearing walls, foam brick walls and hollow brick walls can not be installed without lifting capacity.
Sliding doors are more prone to stains. Both the floor sliding door and the hanging sliding door are driven to move by stretching left and right. Among them, the rail of the hanging pulley is fixed at the top, and the upper part is not easy to produce dust stains, which is more beautiful and clean. In addition, since the door leaf of the sliding door is suspended vertically through the hanging rail, it does not directly contact the ground. There is no track installed on the ground, so it is more convenient to clean and the sliding door can be opened and closed more smoothly. It's very easy to install the door in the track. If not cleaned in time, the dust in the track will lead to the sliding door stretching is not smooth, there may be noise.
The bearing way is different. Considering the safety, the floor sliding door is better than the hanging sliding door. Sliding doors mainly rely on the ground for load-bearing, and there is no connection with the wall. Load bearing wall or non load-bearing wall can be installed. No matter how heavy the door leaf is, the wall will not be unable to bear the weight of the door leaf, which will cause the door leaf to fall, and the safety of consumers will be guaranteed. The hanging sliding door is supported by the hanging rail of the wall door, and the weight of the whole door leaf is borne by the wall. Therefore, the installation wall must be a load-bearing wall. If it is a non load-bearing wall, there may be safety risks, which will reduce the safety factor.
Advantages and disadvantages of sliding door
Advantages of sliding door
The stability of the sliding door is particularly good, it mainly depends on the track installed on the ground for load-bearing, in line with the principle of gravity, better stability. If the weight of the door leaf is too heavy, it is recommended to install the sliding door to ensure the safety performance.
The sealing performance of the sliding door cannot be achieved by the suspended sliding door. The close contact between the door leaf and the ground, coupled with the track design of the ground, has better sealing performance and stronger sound insulation and thermal insulation effect.
Disadvantages of sliding door
The ground sliding door needs to be installed with rails on the ground, so the overall aesthetics is not as strong as the hanging sliding door. The opening and closing room of the door leaves makes it easy to accumulate dust in the track, which is not very convenient to clean up.
Advantages and disadvantages of suspended sliding door
Advantages of suspended sliding door
The suspended sliding door is moved by the hanging rail above. The ground does not need to be installed with rails. It is more fashionable and atmospheric to install by external hanging. The overall decoration is stronger, and the room looks more harmonious. In addition, because the ground rail is not installed on the ground, it is more convenient to clean up
Disadvantages of suspended sliding door
Hanging sliding doors rely on Wall load-bearing, so its stability is relatively poor, installation wall must be load-bearing wall, foam brick, hollow brick and other non bearing wall must not be installed, so as not to produce safety shadow.
The hanging sliding door relies on the track and hanging rail above the wall to make the door leaf hang vertically. There is a certain distance between the door leaf and the ground to facilitate the door leaf pushing and pulling, which makes the sealing performance of the hanging sliding door not as good as that of the floor sliding door. Therefore, it is not recommended to install the hanging sliding door in the kitchen and bathroom, which can not isolate the odor.
The above content mainly introduces the difference between the floor sliding door and the hanging sliding door. Through reading the article, I believe you have already understood the advantages and disadvantages of the hanging sliding door and the floor sliding door. In fact, from the perspective of aesthetics, the decoration of the suspended sliding door is stronger; from the stability, the stability of the floor sliding door is better; from the degree of cleaning difficulty, the hanging sliding door is easier to clean; from the perspective of sealing, the floor sliding door with the ground rail is more airtight. As for the difference between the floor sliding door and the hanging sliding door, I would like to introduce it to you. Thank you very much for your support.
