Basic knowledge of aluminium alloy doors and windows

Aluminium alloy windows and doors are the most basic configuration of the general residential, but also the most important factors affecting lighting, ventilation and comfort. Then about aluminium alloy doors and windows design standards, have you ever understood?

I: Sill heigh

In general residential buildings, the height of the window sill is required to be not less than 0.9m, and when the height of the window sill is less than 0.8m, protective measures should be taken. In public buildings, the height of the window sill ranges from 1.0 to 1.8m, and the bottom height of the window opening to the public walkway should not be less than 2.0m.

II: Window height

General residential buildings, the height of the window is 1.5m, plus sill height of 0.9m, the top of the window from the floor 2.4m. window height should be based on the light, ventilation, space image and other requirements to decide, but pay attention to the window is too high for the stiffness of the problem, if necessary, to be added to the transom or “gage”. In public buildings, the height of the whole glass has been more than 7.2m, that is not part of the general range of windows.

III: Window width

Window width is generally from 0.6m, according to the provisions of the standard building opening specification, the general building opening width modulus is 300mm, that is, the general width of 600mm, 900mm, 1200mm, 1500mm and so on. It should be noted that when the window opening is too wide, the vertical keel should be added or “splicing”, otherwise it is easy to appear window stiffness problems.

IV: Height of the door

or people to pass the door, the height is generally not less than 2m, and then high also should not be more than 2.4m, otherwise there is a sense of emptiness, the door production also need to be particularly strengthened. Such as modelling, ventilation, lighting needs, can be added in the door waist window, its height from 0.4m, but should not be too high.

For vehicles or equipment through the door, according to the specific circumstances of the decision, its height should be higher than the vehicle or equipment 0.3 ~ 0.5m, so as to avoid vehicles due to bumps or equipment needs to be padded roller handling collision door frame. As for all types of vehicles through the headroom requirements, to consult the appropriate specification.

If it is a stadium, exhibition halls and other large volume, large space buildings, the need to set up a super-scale door, you can add a large door on the conventional size of the attached door for the door does not need to be opened, people can pass.

Nowadays, a variety of equipment within the building wells check the door is quite a lot, it is not often through the place, so the general high and ordinary door frame or some lower, the lower side of the threshold with the skirting line is also left at the same height, and its net height does not have to stick to 2m, 1.5m or so can be. Hotel rooms, doorway height ≥ 2.1m.

V: Width of the door

General residential door 0.9 ~ 1m, room door 0.8 ~ 0.9m, kitchen door 0.8m or so, bathroom door 0.7 ~ 0.8m, due to the consideration of modern furniture moving in, nowadays more than take the upper limit of the size. Door width of public buildings generally single door 1m, double door 1.2 ~ 1.8m, and then wide to consider the production of the door, double door or multi-door door width of 0.6 ~ 1.0m is appropriate. Hotel guest room doorway width is generally ≥ 0.9m, bathroom doorway width ≥ 0.75m.

The width of the mortuary door for safety evacuation should be set according to the calculation and the specification (relevant fire code). The width of the door of the pipe well for maintenance is generally 0.6 m. The door for the passage of motor vehicles or equipment, in addition to its own width, leaves only 0.3 to 0.5 m of clearance on each side.

Aluminium alloy doors and windows maintenance

The dust on the aluminium alloy doors and windows should be cleaned regularly to keep the aluminium alloy doors and windows and glass and hardware clean and bright. If the aluminium alloy doors and windows are contaminated with oil stains and other things that are difficult to clean, it is best not to use strong acid or alkali solution for cleaning, otherwise it is not only easy to make the surface finish of the profile is damaged, but also destroy the protective film on the surface of the hardware and the oxidation layer and cause rust and corrosion of the hardware.

When opening aluminium alloy doors and windows, the strength should be moderate, and try to keep the speed even when opening and closing. Try to avoid hitting aluminium alloy doors and windows with hard objects or scratching the surface of the profile.

The inside of the frame should be cleaned up in a timely manner, such as granular debris, so as not to block the drainage channels and cause poor drainage and water leakage phenomenon. Found that aluminium alloy doors and windows in the use of the process of opening inflexible or other abnormalities, should be timely to find the cause, if the customer can not troubleshooting, can be contacted with aluminium alloy doors and windows manufacturers and suppliers, so that the fault can be removed in a timely manner.
