When decorating, many people tend to make mistakes in doors and windows due to limited budgets. Once the doors and windows selected are unqualified, the following hidden dangers may arise:
1 Unqualified glass - has the hidden danger of "self-explosion"
There are a lot of news about tempered glass self-explosion and injuring people every year. The reason is that the original glass itself contains impurities - nickel sulfide, and the more impurities, the higher the self-explosion rate.
It is recommended to choose ultra-clear glass , which has a low iron content, and impurities such as nickel sulfide and monocrystalline silicon also have the lowest content in ultra-clear glass, so the self-explosion rate is low.
In addition, it should be noted that the larger the glass area of a high-rise building, the thicker the glass must be. At the same time, high-strength profiles must be selected, and the depth of the glass groove should be calculated. The maximum single span of windows should not exceed 5m.
2 Unqualified hardware accessories - is easy to deform and fall off
If the quality of the hardware accessories is poor, it will be easy to rust, deform, and damage after a short time, leading to safety hazards such as deformation and displacement of doors and windows.
For example, hinges, hinges, etc. that open and close doors and windows. Once quality problems occur or encounter strong winds and heavy rains, door and window sashes will easily fall off.
Therefore, when choosing hardware accessories, you should pay attention to choosing hardware accessories that comply with national standards. The hardware accessories of all door and window categories of Hennessy Doors and Windows have undergone rigorous testing, which fully guarantees the durability and beauty of the hardware accessories, making the entire doors and windows have a longer service life.
3 Unsatisfactory door and window design - Doors and windows leaking air and water
Reasonable door and window design should include details such as sealing strips and drainage systems.
If there is no sealing strip or the quality of the sealing strip is poor, the sealing performance of the doors and windows will be poor, and the air tightness and water tightness will not be guaranteed. It is recommended to choose sealant strip made of EPDM , and EPDM strips with more than 28% of virgin rubber are the best.
If there is no reasonable drainage system, rainwater will easily penetrate into the window frame and accumulate, corrode the profiles or pour back into the room, so the drainage treatment of doors and windows is very important.
Hennessy doors and windows have independent built-in drainage system technology . Water can be drained through the drainage channel inside the profile, and the drainage outlet is equipped with filter cotton , which can effectively prevent sand and dust from causing blockage.
4 Unsatisfactory installation - It is easy to leave gaps between the outer frame and the wall
Even if the doors and windows are checked at all levels in the early stage, but the installation technology is not up to standard, it will also lead to a series of problems such as air leakage, water seepage, shaking, etc.
recommends that after building the wall, install the door and window frames first, and then use foam glue to fix the doors and windows. You can also use cement mortar , but the cold and heat coefficients of cement mortar and window frames are different, and water leakage is easy after exposure to the sun.
